I'm going to put my neck out and say I think anything over (and I mean this very roughly) 8 years old is usually disappointing. There is a very fine line between subtlety and dullness. I think there is a lot of rubbish talked about old cigars. They may well have been amazing in their day but in my opinion if a cigar smells/tastes mainly of cedar there is an issue there. I'm sure the rocks are going to come flying at me now but I think the main value in really old cigars is as collectors pieces and not as smokes. I will admit I'm a fan of punchy, tasty cigars and I'm sure my palate isn't as developed as many of the aficionados on here but for me the best time to smoke a cigar is in that 1-3 year period.
Steviboy, I've got a warrior version (Kilt) in my wardrobe is that why they call them wardrobes for war wear LOL.
I have to admit to being a little Scottish in my family.......... even though I'm English what a contridictation in terms........
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game's afoot: Follow your spirit, and upon this charge Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

I'm sure there are some fine, well maintained puros that age far betters than others. In fact, CA mag. includes a "connoisseur's corner" where they sample and rate vintage habanos, and while the older puros often rate very high, some don't.
But as me wise ol' pappy used to say, "you can't judge all puros based on a sampling of a few."
Then again, he also used to say, "you can't fuck all the women in the world, but you can try."
Hello, My name is BJ. BJCoro, runt of the famalia Coro, and I believe that young puros are the future of the world.
