I had read a lot of different views on this -
From what I can tell - the people that really store boxes for years
I'm talking 5+ years want as little air flow as possible.
One person I know vacuum seals his boxes in those flavor savor shrink wrap deals.
It also been said that tubed cigars age better sealed tight.
Now this goes for boxes aging many many years.
cigars will age faster with a little air flow so if were talking 1-2 years
a little air flow is good.
I should add one very important thign is constant temp & RH
stability is impotant!
