Actually I am a medium at best smoker. I use to like them stronger/fuller in my younger years... Being a Habanos fan, they are not as strong as many NC's.

The top NC's tend to use older tobacco than Cuba, so they are already ahead of the game. Add significant box aging and you mileage will vary. Several NC brands don't even talk about box aging being necessary.

Hmm, I guess that shoots that theory.

I will be curious to see how this all plays out.
