Very interesting information, Dave. It would be very educational to find a write-up from a cigar smoker who used the heat technique. It seems to me, off hand, that the precautions and setup for the heating would be more involved and stringent than freezing. However, knowing alternate methods is always a plus.

Personally, I'd be very worried about damaging the oils in the tobacco and so am unlikely to experiment with this technique. On the other hand, when I smoke a cigar, the temps get above 140*, so I'm pretty sure that the eggs are toast (pun) anyway
