Good info above me

I will just add that storage conditions play a huge factor on how cigars age and how they maintain their flavor 10, 20, 30+ years. If proper storage conditions are met there's no reason to say that a cigar 60+ years old can't still taste great. I consider vintage cigars to be anything with 15 or more years on them. IMO the best cigars I've smoked fall into the vintage category.

I've smoked many cigars with 30+ years on them and to me, I prefer cigars (properly stored of course) from the 80's more than the ones I have smoked from the 70's. However as I said there are always exceptions, as one of the best cigars I've ever smoked in my life was a tubo from the 70's.
