Aesthetics! It makes the picture look better. I will say that there are two schools of thought at work on this. One says wrapper off and use dividers if storing different types of cigars, and the other which I subscribe to is to leave them on. My reasoning is simple, I ALWAYS have different types in my humidor since I enjoy many tobacco flavors. I may like to have a Macanudo Maduro in the evening while I would rather enjoy my Romeo Y Julieta Aniversario while on the golf course. I do not want the flavor of a strong Maduro marrying a lighter Conneticut wrapped cigar. While both are fantastic puros, they do not blend well together. Just look at the pic of my humidor and you will see that I ALWAYS leave them in their original wrapper. Some of my cigars have been in the humidor for over 4 years and smoke GREAT when I take them out! Relative humidity is relative humidity! Open or closed, the cigar still absorbs, or disipates its moisture. So, if leaving your cigar wrapped was "counter productive", you would never need a humidor for storage. The bonus of leaving them wrapped is their individuality remains the same! Cigar "CHARACTER" is EXTREMELY important to a cigar aficionado such as myself. You purchase your puros for their unique flavor at a cost. You never want them to taste different than what you originally purchased! :-) Sorry to be so long with the answer Andrew, but you asked! GB Walt Great question Andrew!

(By the way, isn't leaving the cigars in their containers/wrappers and putting them in a humidor kind of counter productive)? Just wondering.
