Oldest aged cigars you have

How often do you see the middle of a stick, aka the filler, dry out first vs the wrapper.

My logic and 3 cents.

The analogy of ice melting to tobacco maturing is about as valid as a 2013 check from Jimmy Hoffa, James.

I explained it to several people and it made sense to them I think its just not translating from brain to fingers to keyboard.

I was just trying to say that with a short filler there is not as much protection if you will from the elements as a tightly wrapped long filler cigar and the short filler would lose its bite quicker due to it not being as tightly grouped I guess.

I dunno, F me, there is no hockey on tonight. All G-Damn day I have been looking forward to the Stanley Cup tonight and its not till tomorrow. Last nights 2 hours of "sleep" maybe catching up with me as well as my 260 mile round trip trek to the Mayo Clinic yesterday to have a second opinion on my knee.

So ignore the damn ice analogy and go with the first post Tom
