Are cigars in tubos immortal?

[Li Bai]

Serious question here, a friend of mine found an Upmann tubo in a desk drawer while emptying his grandfather's house when he passed away right before COVID.

It was an 80's or maybe even 70's cigar iirc and it was a delightful smoke according to my friend so here's my question: 

Do you guys think a cigar in its tubo could be almost immortal, assuming the room in which it is kept is pretty stable RH-temperature wise?

Any different from those who vacuum seal or wrap boxes I wonder? Immortal? Slows down ageing if it's well sealed I guess. So could seem immortal. 

NB .. store in a cool dark place.

Dear Gil,

I honestly think that your friend's cigar was well stored.( In a well sealed tubo), ( In a drawer),far from any light or changing air and in a fairly stable RH-temperature

For me , all the lights are green.

I once was given a" HENRY CLAY"-Corona cigar that was in the open air with no protection aside the cello, well i called a good freind who knows all about cigars

and he told me all i could do was to put it under a glass dome and to call it " grandpa's old cigar". Well i put it under a good humidity for at least 2 months and the cigar

was at it's best and was very smokeable. I hope this helps.

Amicalement,

Guy
