FREEZE them! For your others cigars' sake, and for your sanity.

Yep. Just having a little fun. :tu

Re: A story and a question
 

Yeah, and of your location. Prbly about 30-40%? I would slowly bring them back by putting them in a sealed container with a hygrometer and no added humidity to find out what they stabilize at, then start adding humidity a little at a time.
I have had some of the best and worst cigars I've smoked come from old stash like this.

Re: A story and a question
 

RH of the purchase location and where I am at is usually around 40-45%.

Freezing all of these will take months.. I can only fit a couple of boxes in my freezer at a time, unfortunately.

I am going to get some 2G ziplock bags and put them in there. I could also dial down my RH a bit.. but I don't want to go too low since I have other cigars in there.

I'd quarantine them in a cooler. keep the restoration project separate from your other cigars. well worth the cost of the cooler if you need to purchase one.

I would take Scott's advice if I were you.
