Freezing

[gettysburgfreak]

With my first box purchasing arriving in the next week, I thought this would be a good time to discuss the freezing of cigars. The freezing of cigars is designed to eliminate those pesky tobacco beetles which can decimate entire cigar collections. Since I have only done this once, I would like those with more experience to comment. What I did was put my cigars in two zip lock bags, make sure most of the air was out and put in the freezer for three days. I then took out the cigars, let them sit out at room temperature for a few hours and then put back into my humidor.
