Sealing a box

SmokinCozy · 05-06-2012, 05:49 PM

I found that I like some cigars fresh and not so much once they aged a few years. So last month I started vacuum sealing boxes that are smoking good right now. Has anyone tried this, should this work? Thoughts......

I would not think so as sealed or not they are still the same environment as in your humi either way, would storing them at a lower RH not slow down the aging process a little, or my favourite method just smoke them as they will make more.

Some people vaccum seal boxs to slow the aging process. Haven't tried it myself though.
