Hello

[Cigar_Addict]

Thank you. I have had a look at your thread and will be going over it again and again. I did see somewhere that NC are good to smoke at purchase but CC are best aged. Is that your view? And how long would you age them for?

I have little to no experience aging Cubans, and barely have the patience to rest anything bought (although I am getting better as the stash grows ever bigger), but I believe two to three years takes the edge off, after that they developed further. Some have a sweet spot which people talk about on here, but everything is obviously subjective.

Unfortunately I am unable to taste flavours or specific notes, so my judgement falls under a very basic yes or no category of if I'd smoke them again

So I approached the subject of cigars with my wife last night. It did not go well at all.

I don't think that is going to work, but thank you for the suggestion. My wife already hates how many hobbies I have, LOL.

I think it has more to do with the health risks.
