So I have an alternative question to ask on top of this topic. Would using a food saver (vacuum sealer) help or benefit the many extra boxes of the 64 padrons that I have? Has anyone had experience in this matter? If so what is the process (ie. steps) involved? If the cigars are going to be sitting in the humi for 5-10+ years anyways, would it be better to do this? Since Padrons are already aged... I'm wondering if this would help slow down the process and preserve them better... for a latter time.

Is there any difference in using the vacuum seal vs. leaving them as they are in the box? Also, does the vacuum sealer suck out the moisture and leave dry cigars in a sealed environment?

Thanks for any input. I have been reading about this on the internet and am very curious about this.
