What cigar ages the longest?

Out of all the many kinds of cigars, which one do you think ages the longest for the best taste?

Stonger oily cigars with a lot of oil.

Ok, anyone have thoughts on which marcas/vitolas are oily? I see people posting about this but I never find that characteristic in any of the cigars that I smoke.

Toothy cigars are what I consider oily. The wrapper has that shine to it.

Toothy refers to a rough looking wrapper. I would not equate toothy with oily/shiny.

So "toothy" would = a veiny wrapper?

I just realized what I typed there... yes I'm redundant.

Specifically Opus X and Fuente Anejos benefit greatly from age, some of the few NC's that do IMO.

I'd say the ones that are oldest have probably aged the longest.

If you buy two cigars at the same time, the one you smoke last ages the longest.

It's really not rocket science.

Well that's really not what I was trying to get at rocket science and all. I am new so I am learning some things. I get that it's a difference between NC and CC. I understand that now. That's why we are still learning and thinking about options for storage. But I get what you're saying as well. As I live in Michigan that would make it apparently NC's for us. So, instead of a yearly humi it would be a monthly thing then. Still sits well with the scope of our planning.

Could you (or "y'all", rather) explain your (or "y'all's", rather) "yearly humi" and "monthly humi" and "progressive humi" ideas to us/me? We/I are/am quite perplexed.

11-20-2008, 12:18 PM

Whether you are perplexed or not is not my fault. I am on this site as my husband and I enjoy herfing and woodworking and this site was recommended. As it stands now, with responses that put a person on the defensive, I can't say I would recommend this site to anyone.

Thank you to those who have responded trying to help.

11-20-2008, 12:19 PM

I'm confused as hell with this thread now.

11-20-2008, 12:21 PM

What is a progressive humi?

The point of the questions was not to put you on the defensive, it was to try to clarify your inquiry in order to give you better information. You will never find a friendlier group than are present on this board.
