The packs have been opened a few times, but not a lot. Do you think the smokes will be too dry to smoke or no?
It's probably all based on personal taste and whatnot, I'm sure. But being a usual pipe smoker, I don't have a humi of any kind. I would think that the tobacco is probably hardy and fairly resilient to drastic change, right?

Hi Kegan,
You should consider putting them into a humidified environment now though. I have done some experimenting with vacuum sealing over the years and the 1-2 month is about the longest I have had cigars retain the same humidity that they were put in with. (I've seal hygrometers with the cigars)
This is because most plastic used for bags is still porous.
I hope this helps
