    you sent me the gurkha legend. its from 4-06. i kinda got confused about what you were saying at that point, if you could clarify: were you saying the legend ages well or was past its prime ?
    Kuzi, I sent you one, but I also included one in one of the contest boxes. And yes, Gurkha age well.

    Gents, I am currently in possesion of a Gurkha Legend dated 06/06, that previously resided in Michigan. A real beauty that I will have great difficulty keeping my lips off of. ( It was sent to me naked ! ) Do you keep all your cigars that way Capt. ?

    Capt:
    I had to go back to the original post, and re-read, and read, and read, and read again. This post will only include non-Cuban cigars, as this seems to be what we are talking about.........
    Oh Capt my Capt -- why did that post need to be narrowed down to NC's? Is there something so particularly different about Cubans that the rest of your information didn't apply?

    Not really, that is what you guys were referring to, so that is what I stuck with.

    I have a question along these lines. I was considering using the crystal tubadors (with corks) from a box of Astral Grand Reserve 1992 that I have aquired to age some premium cigars in. My thinking was that on top of my humidor that keeping these cigars seperate from each other and other cigars in the humidor would help them from passing flavours between them, as I only want to taste the aged premium without any added flavours from the other cigars kept in the humidor. Would these act as a good barrier so there is no transfer of flavours or volitile oils from one cigar to the next do you think? There are also cedar sleeves inside the tubadors, should I remove them so as not to have an influence from the original Astrals that were kept in them? One more question. How do I determine the RH inside these Crystal Tubadors? Or do I just assume that since it is inside my main Humidor it has the same RH as that environment? Thanks for any help you can offer.

    I think that capt may have been referring to the commonly accepted idea that ISOMs are better with age. Am I correct capt?
