In my opinion, 60-65% is my preference. I have found fewer draw and burn problems and more complex and subtle flavors when aging. |

In various places around the world, some collectors age in the mid 50s, then slowly raise the level when they want to smoke them. Others store and smoke in the mid to high 50s 65% is my "go to" with results that I like |

I try for 70/70, but if I vary to the right or left a bit, no big deal. I just don't like getting the humidity above 75 due to mold issues and splitting wrappers.

I was a 70/70 guy until I did alot of reading and decided to drop my rh to 65. My real problem is keeping the temp in check? My humidors usually sit at around 72 or 73 degrees. Is it that big a deal as long as my rh is 65? What problems does it create?

It's personal preference. I keep them on because it protects the a little bit but yeah it is up to you.

So, I've had this on my mind for a while. How much does the wrapper affect a cigar's taste? I've heard people in the know, fellow BOTLs, B&M owners, give out a range from 10% to 60% (small, thin RG cigars) of the flavor comes from the wrapper.
Does anyone have any good links to some more "technical" information about this and cigar tobacco combustion/burning? Thanks, Ed

To put an actual percentage on something which is ultimately subjective will always bring debate. Here is some interesting discussion on the topic; though I don't agree with every bit of it, some points seem to make a lot of sense:
