Cellophane prevents cigars from losing the humidity before their consumption. Nevertheless, it is self-defeating to keep this wrapping inside of the humidifier to preserve the very best levels of humidity.
If cigars are stored wrapped, the cellophane should be open in its ends for allowing the oxygen circulation. Whether the cellophane should be removed or not is a question of taste. On one hand, if the paper is removed, the aging process of the cigar will continue and this is the best option from an aesthetic point of view.
On the other hand, the cellophane paper will protect the cigar from the mixture of flavors of different cigars that are stored. For this reason, to keep the cellophane is a good alternative in case cigars could be put separately for avoiding tastes mixture.
Usually, premium cigars are wrapped in a Spanish cedar package, in any case, it depends on individual desires to keep or not the cedar package, which will increase this wood aroma of the cigars, or it could be removed completely before placing cigars in the humidor.
