There is no way that these cigars will have any of the flavor they were intended to have. Two years unattented is far too long for any hope at resilience. If the humidor itself is nice, keep it for a desktop, but other than for the sake of experimenting, don't concern yourself with the cigars.

Whats the worst that could happen?

I say go for it, if they dont come back they dont come back, and you're only out a little bit of time.

Like I said, "other than for the sake of experimenting". I have had cigars that have been out of a humidor for over a year. Even after months of trying to bring them back, they were like smoking air.

I agree....you may bring them back to be "smokable", but that doesn't equal "good".
