    You could "dry box" them if you had an empty cigar box. If not, just leave the the humidor open for a few hours. That will bring the humidity down and dry those cigars out for ya. Then its time to solve the real problem. Humidity. Do you have a digital hygrometer? Analogs can be very sketchy. Either way, whats the humidity level of the box? Also, I like to use beads for humidity. I haven't touched my beads or humidity in months! Those two items are a great way to control and monitor your humidity levels.

    +1 to what was noted. Something else to do/try as well - If you happen to have some extra Spanish ceder blocks, or pieces that you can add to your humi, that will help with the moisture that your having. I had to do the same thing in one of my tubberdor to balance out the R/H. Might need to do a salt test on what ever device you are using too just be to be on the safe side too. Keep us posted with the outcome.
