Your cigars dried out.
It happens.
Maybe you left them out too long. Maybe your humidor ran dry. Maybe you forgot about that five-pack in your desk drawer.
Here's how to bring them back from the dead.
Step 1: Put them back in your humidor
Get your dried-out cigars and place them in a properly humidified humidor (65-70% humidity with fresh Boveda packs).
Step 2: Wait
This is the hard part. You need to give them time to reabsorb the moisture.
3 weeks minimum. Sometimes 3 months.
The longer they were dried out, the longer they need to recover.
Step 3: Be realistic
Here's the truth: that cigar might not ever taste like it would have if you hadn't dried it out.
The oils may have evaporated. The flavor profile may have changed. The wrapper might crack when you light it.
But it's definitely worth a try.
A revived cigar is better than a wasted cigar.
Pro tip
Don't rush the process. If you try to speed up rehydration by cranking your humidor to 75-80% humidity, you'll risk mold, beetles, and uneven moisture distribution. Slow and steady wins the race.
