that is interesting, I do the opposite approach! I don't like leaving cigars laying out without humidification, for especially in the summer and dry air here, they would dry out in a snap, turn into kindling, and I don't like dryer smokes, which often to me taste dusty, and tends to burn hot. But I have had similar problems with the draw, and a week before I am going to smoke a cigar, I actually move them closer to the humidity fan in the cabinet and get them more moist, in fact when I smoke them they are like butter sometimes, and the draw problems I have been having on occassion have stopped. The macanudos were especially bad, but lately this method of mine has worked well, and I like cool juicy smokes.
