In this article, we will explore the Davidoff travel humidor with a detailed review touching on the following points:

The model featured in this review was inspired by Winston Churchill’s reputation for adventure much like Davidoff’s limited edition Winston Churchill The Traveller cigar .

Davidoff Travel Humidor Design & Construction

Davidoff’s travel humidors are crafted from naturally lightweight leather and grey camel hair felt with a subtle blue windowpane pattern . Its overall design is reminiscent of a small satchel with a front flap that folds over a simple pouch.

On the inside on the flap, there are also two small pockets, ideal for both a cutter and a lighter as well as other small trinkets.

In terms of presentation, the travel humidor is aesthetically stunning. Indeed, its premium design and materials are a refreshing change from the usual utilitarian options by the likes of Cigar Caddy or Herf-a-Dor.

The aforementioned pouch is sealed using a single magnetic clasp placed where the flap folds over, which efficiently retains moisture inside. On older models like this Winston Churchill limited edition, the opening is found at the end of flap.

As for the cigars, they are cradled by a weave-design cigar safe that resembles a tray. With its integrated lateral bars, the foam folds in a weave shape that securely locks the cigars in place.

Using a small tab on its end, the tray is simply pulled out of the flap through the opening. You can then happily add or remove the cigars from the tray.

Conversely, if you have an older model, you’ll notice that this is somewhat awkward without being able to place the satchel on a surface.

However, newer versions are much easier to handle when standing up without having anything for support.

Supplied With Boveda

Finally, all Davidoff travel humidors used to be supplied with Davidoff-branded HF Jelly humidipacks, which were somewhat unreliable.

However, they are now equipped with Boveda humidity packs that is elegantly sealed in an enevelope.

If you’ve already read some of our cigar content, you’ll see that we’re advocates of Boveda. We believe that their humidity packs offer the best possible performance, especially when travelling.

This is largely thanks to their two-way membrane, which absorbs excess moisture while diffusing it when more is required.

Furthermore, their packs are designed to evenly distribute the humidity throughout the container. This helps to create a balanced biosphere and prevents the cigars closest to the pack from being exposed to excessive levels of moisture.

Travel Humidor Functionality

Similarly, it is arguably cumbersome and can’t be easily slipped in a bag or briefcase. As a result, it often has to be carried separately under the arm like a folio.

Additionally, the humidor can only store up to 8 cigars despite its large size. While you’ll likely be able to easily fill the tray with most cigar sizes, unusually large vitolas may take the space of two cigars.

However, Davidoff’s travel humidor is not designed to be practical. In fact, those that criticise these inconveniences as shortcomings may have missed the point of its conception.

Rather than being a simply container designed for efficiency, the travel humidor is a fine statement of craftsmanship. It is less of practical storage solution and more of a fashion accessory that’s made to be noticed and acknowledged.

After all, functional, no-nonsense travel humidors are very commonplace. Meanwhile, those looking for elegant alternatives may often be dismayed by the majority of leather-bound travel humidors as they tend to be somewhat underwhelming in terms of quality.

Therefore, Davidoff instead offers an elegant and premium alternative that provides you with the opportunity to carry your cigars in style. The objective isn’t to be practical and understated but to display your passion of cigars instead.

As mentioned above, the humidor offers competent protection for your cigars and provides an excellent air-tight seal. In fact, both Paul and I found that our Boveda packs easily lasted several months in the humidor, which is far superior to most affordable alternatives.

Davidoff Travel Humidor Value For Money

If you’re looking for an affordable and practical solution for transporting cigars, you’d likely be better buying either a Boveda humidor bag or a Cigar Caddy for $15 and $24 respectively.

However, if it instead fulfils the need for an elegant humidor for special occasions, then it might be just the solution that you seek!

Bear in mind, though, that it is indeed a premium product. Each model is a limited edition and sold in numbered quantities of 400 editions.

Depending on the model that you choose, Davidoff’s travel humidors retail between $320 and $350 on their official site .

Nevertheless, we would certainly not recommend this humidor as your only storage solution for travelling. We would suggest first buying a more affordable and rugged option for everyday use. If you want to see the best ones to buy, check out our dedicated travel humidor guide .

That said, it’s a great option to have on-hand when heading to formal events or wanting to add a little flair as you head out into town! If you’re a true cigar enthusiast who enjoys relishing in luxury products to display his or her passion, then we believe that Davidoff’s travel humidor offers excellent value.

Closing Thoughts

Davidoff’s travel humidor is an expertly crafted statement to quality craftsmanship. Furthermore, it’s a luxury accessory ideal for the proud cigar enthusiast.

Indeed, it may be bulky and not provide the same storage capacity as smaller travel humidors. Nevertheless, it offers excellent performance with an air-tight seal and sufficient protection for you cigars.

If this is a cigar humidor that corresponds to your needs, then we couldn’t recommend it highly enough. It’s a great conversation starter and looks stunning even when kept in a shelf between usage.

Nike tampa bay rays city connect collection.

The Tampa Bay Rays began play in 1998 as the Devil Rays. As part of a 2007 rebrand, the "Devil" was dropped; at the same time the uniforms bearing the team's home disappeared, and at some point, so did their home black alternates. Their 2024 City Connect jerseys from Nike honor this past with a bold "Tampa Bay" graphic across the front and several subtle local elements. The historic Bro Bowl in Tampa is considered one of the first public skateparks in the world, so there's a skateboarding ray. The stylized TB lettering is a nod to the area's street art, the colorful gradient fade recalls the team's early jerseys, and the pelican graphic is an homage to St. Petersburg's flag and their Negro League team of the '40s and '50s. The collection includes replica jerseys and essentials like hoodies, tees, polos, and jackets.
