Vintage Cigars

I've heard of this place... What was your take on it Jeff?

Jdorais

Over priced and a bit stuffy for my tastes. Actually now that I think about it the place really was a tiny hole in the wall spot. the "lounge" had 2 chairs and a teeny fan placed in a window for ventilation. However, if some BORK wants a few of the vintage sticks I'd be happy to shop and haggle price for him/her.

I was reading some cigar makers site (can't remember which one) and they stated that aging beyond 12 years was counterproductive and would lead to flavor degradation. I had never seen that anywhere else and this goes against some of the things I have been taught here. Any one heard that before?

You really cant give a certin time frame because all tabbacco is different but all tabbacco does have a point were it starts to degrade from over ageing it may be tejn years for some or 20 for others i think that no stick would really do any good after 25 not even the best cuban

I've heard that before, but also have known people who have smoked 40-50 year old cubans and loved them. We should ask Vince...I think he's got a cigar or two that has about 40+ years on them, lol

my wife got me a per embargo stick awhile ago. Its not a single leaf deal, but the whole stick. The tobacco eas part of a forecloser so the bank got it right before the embargo. Its got paperwork with it from the time it was taken till rolling. And it really wasn't over priced at all.
