Thanks for your input. This is exactly why I'm sealing them... to slow that "decline" process down. For the most part I do what you do. On some of my cigars, I like to smoke them every three months. There are others that I smoke only once or twice a year due to short stock.

Well, I have been reading a lot about this on other forums and they have explained it pretty extensively. It seems to make since. I have a good sealer and from what I have experienced.. it doesn't crush the cigar box while sealing it. I would never seal loose cigar as this would completely crush them. Idk.. I'm hoping for the best

. I appreciate your concern though... I can't even begin to think of the torture it would be if I ruin them after all.
