However i've no freezer and i have no clue how long the sticks have been sitting in this ultra drymidor, would it actually be worth re-humidifying these cigars and making them smokable once again?
Also, the other 25 cigars are untouched by the bettles, so my guess is that they're dead :-)
Get them frozen, as per advice on here i did with mine and they were sound after it.
