Sterile water

For short term storage it will work so long as there is no smell to it. In the long term, however, there are still minerals in there that could clog your humidifier over time. I would switch to distilled asap and when you do I would get a new humidification device as well. Keep in mind that getting a maw humidification device is playing it very safe.

In my opinion sterile water should be safe, at least for now. Much safer than letting those cigars dry out. I'm not sure what the electrolyte content would be, never thought about it, and that may be the significant difference. At any rate, I'd use it until you can determine for sure, or get some "cigar-juice" sent to you. I think I'd put that 20ct in a tupperware container, too. Your environment is probably too much for its intended purpose.

How about a shot glass (or something similar) inside your humi with a little bit of that water in it to try and raise the humidity temporarily? As long as there's little chance that the humi would be moved or bumped where the water could spill, I'd give that a try.

How hard is it for civi's to send cigars to military in Kabul? How long do they take to get there and do they arrive in good condition? And is it crazy expensive?

Just get the APO, a medium USPS flat rate box (get the APO one and shipping is $12.95), takes maybe a month based on my experience and they arrive in good shape as long as you include water pillows or Boveda packs.

You also have to fill out an additional form 2976-A APO/EPO I believe. You can fill this out online prior to walking in the P.O.
