I remember reading on Club Stogie a long time ago that cigars are like wines. The big bold strong ones (reds) age well and improve in taste. But the weaker (whites) don't age well at all and begin to deteriorate. It seems kind of true.
A lot of the big surprises I've had with aging cigars are some of the cheaper smokes. Cigars rolled with "young" tobacco that were almost unsmokeable out the box have become fantastic with 5 or 6 years of age on them. So my rule of thumb is smoke'm if they're ready, put 'em to bed if they are not. I let my nose be the judge.
