Whats the maximum born on date to smoke date to obtain optimum flavor? I may have to get rid of some then soon, if its within 2-3 years.
Yes, if that climate was maintained, you can keep cigars in optimum condition for a very, very long time.

As for the time to smoke them, that is purely subjective. Some folks do not like fresh cigars while some favor them. I would suggest you experiment. If you have multiples of the same cigar, smoke one now and make notes. Smoke another one 6 months and compare your notes. Then keep repeating and you will be able to experience the changes in flavors that occur over time.
