An increasing number of cigars are coming with smart technology that allows the aficionado who buys them to learn more about the smoke. Ferio Tego is the latest. The brand won’t be on the market until next month, but when the cigars arrive, they’ll be boxed in smart packaging developed by HumidifGroup, the business-to-business packaging manufacturer that’s been fabricating humidors and cigar accessories for more than 30 years. The smart technology will allow end-users to see videos, tasting notes and other information via their smart phones.

越来越多的雪茄包装会采用智能技术，让雪茄消费者能够了解更多关于雪茄的知识。下个月才会有产品上市的费里奥·泰戈公司是最新尝试的一家。雪茄会放在由保湿集团智能包装里。保湿公司一直从事保湿器和雪茄配件的设计和制造工作，主要是针对企业客户服务，在这个领域已经30多年了。

Your phone’s browser works with the chip, which is embedded in the box, showing you multimedia information on the cigars inside, including videos, cigar descriptions, authenticity verification and general company data. 

消费者通过手机浏览器借助嵌入雪茄保湿盒的芯片可以获得关于雪茄的更多信息，包括视频、雪茄介绍、真实性验证、制造商的信息等。

“Smart packaging by HumidifGroup allows us to control our messaging and ensure that we are communicating clearly to our audience,” said Michael Herklots, co-owner of Ferio Tego. “Smart packaging technology allows collectors to receive real-time information and communication about Ferio Tego and our products.”

费里奥·泰戈公司的联合创始人迈克尔·赫克洛茨说，保湿集团的智能包装帮助我们进行产品信息传递，确保我们向消费者清晰的输出信息。智能包装还能让雪茄收藏者能够实时收到信息以及和我们公司沟通产品情况。

Other cigar companies have also recently made their products interactive. Last year, Oliva Cigar Co. started to put a QR code in every box of Serie V Melanios; in May, the Plasencias embedded a smart chip in the band of its Alma Fuerte Sixto I Colorado; and Warped Cigars put a QR sticker and bubble tag security label on its cigars to help verify product authenticity.

其他一些雪茄公司近期也做了这样的设计和应用。去年，奥利瓦公司在每一盒V系列的米拉尼奥雪茄里放了一个二维码，五月份，普拉森西亚公司在一款烈魂系列的盒压造型雪茄里放入了智能芯片。翘曲雪茄公司在雪茄标签上放置了二维码，帮助消费者验证产品的真实性。
