Plastic on or off?

They need to breathe the humid air that is shipping wrap take it off.

They have individual cellos? If so:

Smoking in the next week to 3 months - cello Off
Smoking in the next 3 months to year - doesn't make a difference whether you leave it on or off, it'll still breathe
Smoking in the next year+ - leave the cello on and you may get a nice yellow cello in a few years time

You don't need to age NC's, but if you do, do it in a cello.

Since they are all lined up nice you can cut em all at once with the plastic on. There's a whole thread talking about the merits of this

Sounds like something you'd find in a moderator's workshop...

the plastic still breathes, it will not affect the cigars at all. it does slow down air exchange but will not hurt them in anyway.

Yup, I meant both the plastic and the cello. The plastic won't hinder equalizing the RH if it's there for a bit, and it keeps it in a nice, clean, and compact form. Single sticks can be a pain if you have too many while a brick can be easily tucked away.

I think Kaz is not talking about the cello, but the outer plastic wrapper that holds the bundle together.
