I Microwaved a CFO #7

Coz77 · 10-16-2008, 10:54 AM

And liked it!

Normally I dry box my CFO's a good week before smoking them, they just seem to smoke and taste better dry. So last Saturday night I pull a CFO out of the humi and it seems a little too squishy (wet). At this point I have about 4 beers in me and figure if I can dry a slice of bread in 20 seconds using a microwave, why not try a .80 cent cigar.

Needless to say the cigar game out steaming hot and really soft. I took it outside and used the cool night air to take a few pre light draws. This cooled the cigar down quick. The cigar dried out considerably and was hard as a rock. Perfect just the way I like my CFO's.

To make a long story short the cigar tasted and burned great! I would never recommend doing this with a more expensive stick, however this seemed to work for me at the moment.

I am glad it worked out, the CFO's are great cigars, it would be a shame to waste one.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! Just think about it first and then decide you should send it to me and I'll "microwave" it for you and let you know how it is.

Well this is a new method of dryboxing...

This works well for pipe tobacco. As long as microwaving the cigar doesn't soften the vegetable glue, I'd see no reason it wouldn't work for a cigar too.
