I can only give advice on what I've seen or done. Having said that...

I got back into cigars about 18 mos. ago after a 5 year hiatus. I had some Cifuentes Partagas 2005 Juli's and some 5Vegas red label toros and churchills that sat completely unhumidified for those 5 years. I stuck them in a rubberdor for a few months at 70%RH. Smoked some, bombed some and no one. I mean no one. complained. I had a couple of the Juli's and thought they were nice and mild. I gotta tell ya, the 5 year old 5Vegas' were FK'N AWESOME.

My advice: let em sit for a few months in proper humidity and try one. Like said earlier, you have nothing to lose!
