Do cigars lose their quality if exposed to heat for long periods of times?!
Answers: leaving in the car etc..?
It doesn't even take very long. They will get dry, stale, and start to fall apart in a matter of a few hours in a car in the heat of summer.
Keep the cigars in a humidified environment at around room temperature (70% humidity, 70 F is best).
You can get small portable humidors, I have a travel humidor with a small humidification device in it for transporting cigars.
yes thay dry up
Without a humidor or insuring a controlled environment, they will loose taste and dry out and fall apart, eventually.
yes, they sure do
It's not the heat that is a problem, it is the humidity; they dry up. However, if it is too warm, the necessary humidity can cause mold growth.
I don't really know
But I did find a tobacco store in Sacramento
that impressed me in the wide scope.

no as a mater of fact if you put them in a warm oven, say around 200 degrees and leave then there for about one half hour, they will be easier to light and taste better,.....let me know how you like them,.....
