i had a Epicure #2 last night. I had one that previously fresh from my humi and it tasted ok, but not great. After dry-boxing yesterdays cigar over the previous night, it was amazing! I nubbed it. I made a really noticable difference, and for the better! I'm going to have to see what else benefits from dry-boxing. And Shelby07, i don't live in a sandy area. Check my profile and you'll see what I mean.
