Placing very dry sticks in a bag with the drymistat gel will do more to quickly ruin his cigars than just about anything you can do. Very dry cigars need to be rehydrated slowly, placing them with a 60-70% source will lead to extensive damage. The previous posts lay out a reasonable method of doing this correctly.
That being said, the cigars may never recover. It depends on how dry they have become and how much of the oils remain in the leaves. There is nothing to lose trying to rehydrate.  |
I'm sorry......
I wasn't aware of the damage that could be done. No one ever told me and I guess I never read it anywhere.
I will just keep my mouth shut.
