First, let me say as a bassist, keyboardist and low brass player, I finally found a good use for cellos. I leave them on my cigars. They're also nice for certain instrumental phrases.
But as for aging of cigars, in my 10 years or so of true cigar aficionado-dom, I've made the the following observations:
1) No amount of aging is going to turn a dog-turd into a better cigar. So don't even try.
B) Milder smokes will get a nice grassy, wheaty flavor and lighten substantially in strength. Have three or four in the morning with no worries about over-powering your palate.
And III, and the gist of my post) A hefty full-bodied cigar that was great to begin with usually turns into a spectacular cigar. I'm a "budget minded" cigar and have stashed away my share of Pepin 5 Vegas Miamis, Partagas Blacks and original non-Cuban Pinar Del Rio Oscuros. I think they are awesome cigars at the start, but today, I smoked a
5 Vegas Series A Artisan that had been in my humidor for just over four years. It still retained all the flavors I remembered, but was exquisitely smooth.
Patience, Grasshopper. Stash away a couple of what are now your faves, and revisit them in a year or three. Trust me.
