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.

Call me crazy, but I have a thing against microwaves. It's probably because I survived on Hot Pockets during college, BUT...

A microwave heats at very high temperatures. These temperatures may be hot enough to have the tobacco oils reconstitute themselves. It could also cause wet/hot spots that could cause an inconsistant burn.

If I had the option, I'd use a toaster and only give it about 130 degrees for a half hour to an hour or so. The slower you can remove the humidity, the better IMO.

Interesting! I'm always amazed at the ways members either get a cigar to a smokeable state or are crafting something which will only enhance their hobby.


CFO stands for Cigar Factory Outlet?? Made by Oliva? Hmmm, I just might have to try these since I love Oliva.

Hmm, oh ok. I googled CFO because I didn't know what they were and this was what it came up with: http://www.discountcigars.org/cigars.asp?parentval=229
