Instead of just hoping they\u2019re good enough (they won\u2019t be) or getting rid of those dried-out stogies that you purchased with your hard earned money, our 3 step solution will show you how to revive hard and dry cigars. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recently, my brother-in-law and I flew down to Key West for a mini vacation. I don\u2019t know why my brother-in-law didn\u2019t ask me to bring cigars but he didn\u2019t, nonetheless, he wanted to enjoy a strong premium cigar. So we went to a local shop and picked up eight <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/brands\/camacho-american-barrel-aged?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=post&amp;utm_campaign=camacho_american_barrel_aged\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Camacho American Barrel Aged<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We got unlucky and the cigars were all incredibly dry. Despite it all, we made the best of the situation since he had already paid for them, we smoked the two I found most acceptable and I promised him I\u2019d bring back the rest to their former glory. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s a shame when you encounter cigars that are not ready to smoke. A dry cigar will burn too tight and lose a lot of its carefully blended flavors. However, there\u2019s still hope for your stiff cigars! The key is to stay patient and trust in the ever-mighty <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Mike\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/product-details\/water-pillow\/pack-of-12?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=post&amp;utm_campaign=water_pillow_dry_cigars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">water pillows<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What to Do<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">First, you must decide whether or not to keep the cellophane on the cigar. In extreme cases (when your cigar is basically a rock), it would be best to start off with the cellophane on to slowly re-hydrate the cigar and remove it once it\u2019s slightly less firm. The cellophane slows down the revival process and a severely dry cigar will need this! An intense increase in humidity can cause the wrapper to split and the ends of the cigar will expand before the rest of it. Any quick spike in moisture will harm the cigar! <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> &nbsp;<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Place the cigars in a <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">plastic resealable bag<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with ONE water pillow. Remember the key is to gradually increase the moisture to avoid ruining the shape of the cigar. I would recommend placing a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/mikescigars.com\/product-details\/hygroset-adjustable-slim-line-digital-hygrometer\/each?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=post&amp;utm_campaign=digital_hygrometer_dry_cigars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hygrometer gauge<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in the bag to help you keep an eye on the humidity. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once the cigar recovers to a softer state and you can toss in another water pillow to reach the ideal 65-75% humidity range. This process is best for 3-4 cigars at a time. If you have more cigars then you may want to use more pillows.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The best way to know when your cigars are ready to smoke is to feel them. If they are slightly spongy and bounce back when you squeeze them, then they\u2019re plump and ready to light!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Steps<\/span><\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Place the pillow, cigar(s), and gauge in a plastic bag<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">WAIT! This process takes time depending on the severity it could take a few days or a couple of weeks.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Regularly, check the condition of the cigars and keep an eye on the gauge. <\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ve made it even simpler to fix your cigars!
