Description
Xikar’s crystal humidification bars maintain ideal humidity of 70% for 50 cigars. Simply remove the wrapping, fill them with Xikar’s special PG Solution liquid, and place them in your portable humidor. They have a slim and convenient rectangular shape, while their small size is perfect for travel humidors. They feature two ends that open easily, simplifying the filling process with Xikar’s PG Solution liquid as over time it evaporates and the crystals shrink.
The history of Xikar begins in 1994 in Kansas. Kurt Van Keppel, (now the president of Xikar), who wanted to purchase a good cigar cutter, found many of the cheap models and high-end models to be low-performing. So, he started with Scott Almsberger to design a more ergonomic cigar cutter. The result was the Xi cutter, which they first manufactured in their garage and is now the market leader.
XIKAR comes from the word “sikar,” which is said to be the first Spanish spelling of the Taino word for cigar. The Taino were the indigenous peoples of Spain and Cuba, where Columbus first landed when he discovered the “New World” and tobacco with it. We changed the S to an X (representing 2 blades), and we had the X cut the i, like a cutter cutting a cigar!
Today, the company produces a full range of products around cigars, such as lighters, travel humidors, ashtrays, cigar cases, humidifiers, hygrometers, etc.
