? on uppman cask aged ...

[veteranvmb]

I have seen them in the jr retail shop and they have them on their weekly dutch auction. The H. Uppman cask aged super fuerte cigars.
They are packed naked, 20 in the barrell and they give you 20 celophanes to use.
The question I have on these, is that from the description on the jr site, it seems like they want you to keep them in the barrell so they are continually ageing. Then when you want to smoke one, you take one out and cellophane it for protection, if not immediately lighting up.
How do the remaining cigars stay ageing, and what is the environment inside the barrell? I am a bit confused on it, but it intriques me. Seems like a great conversation piece for when a friend in over and wants a smoke. It makes it seem "special" Sometimes the presentation is more important then the actual item.
So fill me with your knowledge please..

Much regards Jerry
