    Ok guys, I've gotton mixed reviews from other people so I thought I'd post here. How do you guys store your cigars in your humidor? Do you remove the clear wrapper (if applicable) or do you leave it on and just place the cigar in your box? My local cigar shop owner tells me it's better to leave the wrapper on for the sole reason that you want as little oil froom your fingers to get on the cigars as possible, and if you're the type that likes to rotate the cigars in the humidor, obviously you'd be touching the cigars. What are your thoughts on this? Thanks for any input.

    I would say keep them wrapped as long as they are not fully wrapped, in other words heat sealed: they should be fine. In fact better as they would have retained the original "factory" flavor retained.
