Put some years on this cigar and it's a fine smoke.
Hi Oy.  6 months does wonders for it too.
good afternoon boyz, I agree, for the price it was excellent. I've had them with a few months, but this was in the six year range, loads of flavor great draw, just perfect.
Been working on a box of Gran Habano Azteca Aquila.  Years in the aging more subtle flavors with increase in complexity almost a whole nuther seegar.  Same with some La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuente. The cellophane is almost orange.

Didn't set out to age them as long as I have.  But you know the older cigars get shuffled to the back.  Trying to get to the older stuff but every new purchase just moves them further back or down to the bottom of the storage.  Keep going on a buying hiatus but we all know how that goes.

Hiatus simply means you only buy if a good deal or something new ;D

Ironically, I had one of those Cuban San Cristobals on the way home tonight. My brother-in-law had brought me two from Mexico. The first one didn't draw for shit.  The one I smoked today was ok but burned crappy and had meh flavors, at best. I wouldn't spend that kind of money. But maybe that's just me.

I'm with Tony.  Generalizing, but priced due to origin only.  Taste is meh and sticks are plugged. It will be interesting when the embargo is lifted and the cachet gives way to true value.
