Hana lima ʻia ka ʻūpā cigar maʻamau kūʻai nui

Ma mua o ko kākou nānā ʻana i nā ʻano ʻōpala like ʻole o nā humidors, e nānā kākou i ka mea nāna i hoʻohana mua iā lākou.
Ua hoʻopaʻa ʻia ʻo ka poʻe mua i hoʻohana i nā pahu cigar ʻo nā kaikunāne Upman. Ma ke kamaʻilio ʻana e pili ana i kēia, ke manaʻo nei ʻoe i nā cigars hōʻailona Upman? ʻO ka mea hoihoi, ʻaʻohe o nā cigars i loko o ka pahu he mau cigars Upman, no ka mea, ʻaʻole i hana ʻia ka hōʻailona Upman.
ʻO nā kaikunāne Upman, i hānau ʻia i loko o kahi ʻohana kālā, ua hoʻouna ʻia e ko lākou makuakāne e wehe i kahi lālā panakō ma Cuba i ko lākou wā ʻōpiopio. He mau makana wale nō nā cigaka i nā mea kūʻai aku panakō, akā i ke kaʻina hana o ka hāʻawi ʻana iā lākou, ua kuʻi iki nā cigaka kekahi i kekahi, e hōʻino ana i nā cigaka.
I mea e pale aku ai i kēia, ua hoʻolālā nā kaikunāne Upman i kahi pahu e waiho ai i kā lākou mau cigar. Pēlā i hānau ʻia ai ka pahu cigar mua.
Akā, ʻaʻole i kaulana loa nā pahu cigar a hiki i ka hoʻomaka ʻana o nā makahiki 1800. I kēlā manawa, ʻo ka pahu cigar maʻamau i hana ʻia me ka lāʻau paʻa i kui ʻia me nā hinges, i kapa ʻia ʻo ka pahu cigar lāʻau kui. Ma hope mai, me ka hoʻomohala ʻana o ka hoʻokele waiwai kaiaulu a me ka hahai mau ʻana i nā mea kūʻai cigar, aia nā ʻano pahu cigar like ʻole i kēia lā.
ʻO ka pahu pepa kala paʻakikī ka mea maʻamau i hana ʻia me ka pepa pahu a i ʻole ka pahu ʻāpana lāʻau, i hoʻopuni ʻia e kahi papa o ka pepa kala, pepa kala i paʻi ʻia me ka brand cigar, ke kumu hoʻohālike, ka helu a me nā ʻike ʻē aʻe, a ma ka sila o ka pahu, aia kekahi sila palekana, aia kekahi mau helu anti-counterfeiting, i hoʻohana ʻia e ʻike i ka ʻoiaʻiʻo a me ka wahaheʻe.
E kuʻi ʻia ka ʻaoʻao waho o ka pahu me nā kui liʻiliʻi e hoʻopaʻa pono ai i ka pahu ma waena o ke poʻi. Pono ka mea paʻa cigar e ʻoki i ke sila a hoʻokuke i ke poʻi i luna e wehe ai.
