Can you smoke 9 year old Montecristo Cigars

Well you could, but it probably wouldn't be all that pleasing. Unless you live in a rain forest, they're most likely entirely dried out. Cigars need an environment kept steadily in a range from 60-70% relative humidity to survive for any period of time. If you look at the cigars you have they are probably very dry and brittle with the wrapper flaking off in large pieces. You could certainly smoke them, but I assume that if they had any flavor to them it would not be very pleasant. Unfortunately after being left out for such a long period there is little to no hope of restoring them.
