    How long between freezer and lighting? Did you bring it straight to room temp or light it up right away?

    2 days in the freezer, 1-2 days in the fridge, then back in the humi as long as you can keep your hands off of them.

    Sorry if I wasn't clear I meant the La Cuna 1720 that the OP said was smoked right out of the freezer.

    I just saw something on Oliva's website that says something like "Contrary to popular belief storing cigars in the fridge is a bad thing". Now, with that being said I think they meen constant storage and not beetle protection. Also, I noticed that they said that some of their cigars should be stored between 70 and 78 percent humidity.

    above 70? I would think above 73 would be too high, especially in the summer. But Yeah, I do like cigars around 67-70 or so, though maduros I think smoke better around 60.

    A few seconds. I took it out of the freezer, cut it, went outside and lit it. The only thing that was different than normal was the cool sensation of the cigar on my lips. I was pretty gentle with its handling, though, for fear that being cold might make it more fragile.

    Haha I'll bet that did feel weird. Was the smoke "cold"?

    If you freeze the cigars and some of the cigars have beetles or beetle larvae in them, wouldn't they still have the remains of these things, although dead, in them after removal from the freezer, and if so how does that make you feel?
