Sent from my SM-N960U using Tapatalk Yes in a small desktop humidor around 70-72 degrees F. Was years ago. Now have an end table cabinet full of boxes and everything in there has been frozen by myself. It gives me piece of mind that my expensive inventory is safe from those little destructive bugs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canoli Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 How long do you all let them rest after freezing before smoking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonyontop Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 To those that freeze CC: Do you freeze them while in their boxes, if so even the dress boxes? I plan to store them in their OB in a wineador after. Also, what about LT storing in dress boxes? I heard (I believe on the Dr. Joe Show) that over time the paper could somehow affect the taste/smell of the sticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HumidorJuan Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I’ve never had an outbreak (even after I return home from vaycay to see my temp spiked to 78 for a few days) As I’ve always purchased from proper sources, but I just picked up a Cuban “no name” petit 2 from my regular B&M. Is it safe to believe that HSA freezes even these no name brand sticks that are blended specifically for B&Ms? Or should I be freezing this stick?

Even if you choose not to freeze, I would quarantine that cigar until you know for sure that it is beetle free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subcomandante Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 Do any of you freeze with silica to absorb any water when freezing your cigars. Or would that have an adverse effect on the cigar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
