that's different for every stick, just like with Cubans. Some lose flavor after a couple of years, others will still be great after 30 or 40 years

I have several boxes of NC's that are now 3 years old. I want to smoke them but I just cannot bring myself to break the seal. I am afraid that if I wait to long then they will be way past thier prime and I would just be collecting tobacco...

only one way to find out. Break that seal and smoke one.

Well said! Cigars are for smoking... eventually!
