Kurt's Corner
Dear XIKAR Friends,
The evening chill, the turning leaves and quickly setting sun are nature's signs of my favorite season.
But the most exciting signs of Fall are the raging campfires , the rockin' tailgate BBQs and playoff baseball. After all, what good is your favorite season if you don't enjoy it with your family, friends and a great cigar?!
That is why we are throwing so many
in-store event parties
this Fall. You get the inside scoop on all our great new
lighters
,
cutters
and
humidification accessories
. And we get to celebrate and share our
highest rated cigars ever
with you, our friends from all over this great country!
Since we're having so much fun, we're keeping the XIKAR
HC Series Events
train moving full steam ahead! Oh, and did I mention that one winner from each event will be entered in a 1 in 100 drawing to win an all expenses paid trip to Nicaragua and Honduras!*
For more information, check out the
events page
, find an event near you, then come party! After all, Fall's natural, shortened days remind us that life is too short to let a great cigar go un-smoked.
Hope to see you soon!
Kurt Van Keppel
President, XIKAR Inc.

Crossover to the other side
We're proud to bring a new twist to the popular EX model. The new Crossover
lighter stays true to the stout body shape of the EX but sports a flower jet flame
ignited by the traditional thumb action. Comes in 4 different colors: black on silver, silver on black, silver on blue and silver on yellow.

Ask the Experts
Before you set your fantasy picks, set your humidor!
We'll admit it.
We trust our humidification systems so much that we sometimes forget to check our spare humidor's humidity levels for months at a time. The irony of set-it-and-forget-it is that sometimes we forget completely!
Now, in Kansas City (where humidity can be quite high at times) an abandoned humidor with the right system can sustain the general target of 65% to 70% relative humidity with ease.
However, the seasons change is a welcome, forceful reminder that temperature and humidity are both important - but not mutually exclusive - in proper cigar storage. Consistency is everything.
Now is the time to check those cigars in the garage, basement, spare room or locker. If you want to ensure their survival through some dry winter months,
get a good humidifier
(pictured below) to be sure those puros are going to be in the right conditions for the next few months.
Admit it. You'll forget to check that stash of cigars until your 15 closest friends come to your Superbowl party in January. Set your humidor now so if your team isn't hoisting the Lombardi Trophy, at least you and your friends will enjoy cigars so good you'll forget all about it.
