I'd think you could bring it back but I'd do it gradually.0

Wouldn't the humidor be gradually?Rhamlin:I'd think you could bring it back but I'd do it gradually.0 -
I think it's possible, I would think it takes a little longer for the cigar to lose the oils but what do u have to lose, try it.0

I've done this before. One of my buddies had a cigar for a few years he said sitting in his glove box. It was a ISOM Romeo y Julieta. I started slowly biringing it back. Putting it in it's tube in the humidor for 30 min. Then a day later doing it for an hour. I increased the time gradually and eventually out of the tube and so on. When he smoked it he said it was fantastic. Took me about 2 months to get it to what I considered a smokeable level. It was def a test of my patience to slowly introduce it to humidity and do it little by little.0

Awesome info. Not knowing what I know now, I would have just left a cigar out if i ever bought one. Good thing I didn't. LOL.ENFIDL:I've done this before.

I have brought back a cigar that sat for several months in my camper under very hot humid conditions. The humidity here probably saved it.0

Did it smoke like a regular cigar afterwards? Did it effect how it tasted, burned, ect? Just curious.fla-gypsy:I have brought back a cigar that sat for several months in my camper under very hot humid conditions. The humidity here probably saved it.0 -

The info here is right. I prefer to start in a half charged humi/cooler and move the rh up about 2-3% every 48-72 hrs. This will keep the wrapper from cracking. Must likely no longer than it is out the oils will be OK unless you are in a very dry climate then I don't know what a few weeks might do but I would still try it.0

i found a CAO black that had been in my car in the summer for a few months once. i put it in my humi and forgot about it for a year or two. it smoked well. it wasnt too bad.0

I found one of my favored Bauzas in the pocket of a coat. It was there for probably eight months. I too placed it in the humidor and forgot about it... until now. I will leave it there until I forget about it again.. Hope it works out.0

Well I think it unanimous... you can bring it back to life.... even if you spit on it. LOL0

Hope this works out for you. I've never had to bring a cigar back from near death.0
