Is this smokable? Long lost cigar, found 10 years later (Pics within)

that's too bad, i was hoping the basement environment was enough to keep it smokable. thanks!

Cool! I have never seen an Albino Partagas Black....

I would have to say that Cigar is unsmokable

Where's your sense of adventure, guys? I say at least give it a shot. Throw it in the humi for a few months and light her up. What's the worst that could happen?

Nothing is can't be smoked. Give it a shot.

Have you smoked a Black Label? Maybe you can come back with a side-by-side comparison in a few months.

Good idea. I've never tried a Black Label, but I will now and do a comparison. Who knows, maybe it'll be a short-lived review, or maybe a diamond in the rough (wistful thinking, I know, but I just checked humidity in the basement, it's around 63 , so who knows).

I've isolated the cigar with some beads into its own ziploc humi just so it doesn't ruin my stash. We'll see what happens in a few months.

Oh no, it'll light, it'll smoke, it'll just taste like poop. Either way, i'd love to see video of it being smoked.

Go and ask your doctor if they would like to examine your lungs close up. If they say "yes", fire that puppy up.

Bastage beat me to it! Heck yeah though, video is a must!

I noticed the OP hasn't posted since this thread. I wonder if that cigar killed him?

Sorry for reviving an old post, but I stumbled across this thread and found myself laughing at the responses to the OP. I can't believe someone would try to smoke a cigar that resembles a kitty turd that's been in the litter box for two weeks.

A friend of mine gave a cigar from the 50-60s. It was hard as a rock. I slowly brought it back to life, and now it's sitting in the humi like a normal cigar. As a novelty, I took it to antiques roadshow (my girlfriend's family has a lot of antique furniture), and I knew it was worth nothing, but the guy who knew cigars got pumped about it. We talked for 30 minutes or so, shook my hand and suggested (a terrible) place to buy habanos.

If hasn't yet, I'll smoke mine when he smokes his.

Also, that partagas used to be so black and oily, I bet it's probably screwed.
