Cigar Oasis was developed in 1997 after an extensive marketing and research program to make a reliable, maintenance-free humidifier. It was introduced at the RTDA show in July 1998. In due time by word of mouth and a lot of positive talk on cigar chat sites it gained acceptance as the only truly reliable humidifier for serious cigar smokers. With a significant increase in volume came price reduction and now it enjoys the premier position as the humidifier of choice for the cigar devotee. Cigar Oasis electronic humidifiers are guaranteed to always keep your cigars fresh! using reliable and accurate humidity control sensors and sealing technologies. In 2014 Cigar Oasis introduced the Next Generation of Cigar Oasis humidifiers. Each of the four models were upgraded with new features including Wi-Fi capability for remote monitoring and control via Smartphone app or the web.
