I have my favorite Dunbarton, Casdagli, Padron, and a few Habanitos sleeping the sleep of the dead.

I needed a hobby, so I made myself one

I just started aging cigars starting this July. I have 19 aging. (3) Undercrown 10s, (2) La Historias, (3) Padron 1964s, (1 each) Padron 1926 and 2000, Pledge Sojourn, sin Compromiso, Alma Fuerte, Olive V Maduro and Melanio Maduro, AF Hemingway, FF Opus, EPC Allegiance and a Le Bijou 1922. Hope to expand my “Aging Reserve” soon. Any recommendations ?

@eye-gor Is that the entire list of cigars in your lair? Or just the ones you've put away to sleep?

@katmanphil those are just the ones I’ve put to sleep. I’ve got about another 130-140 more in the humidor and Boveda bags. I have to keep up the numbers consistently since I smoke about two a day and I want to ensure what I’m smoking is sufficiently rested. Although I’m on a self imposed purchasing moratorium so I don’t end up living in a van down by the river. Lol

Btw, 120 cigars aging….thats quite impressive.

What constitutes 'aging' vs. just having a lot of cigars and they sit because you just can't smoke all of them quickly? 🤔

@thrak for me it's having my humidity around 65% and temp constantly at 68 degrees. When aging you don't want higher humidity for long term and you don't want the temp to fluctuate. You need to control the environment Also, not all cigars age the same. Some hit their peak at 6 months, while others (like maduros) can age for years before peaking.

@hansolocup Which one do you like best from those that age at 6months in your experience? Or do you mostly go for maduros?
10/27/2026 9:39 AM
@smokinghub I only age maduros. Mainly because that's what I prefer, but they also age really well
10/27/2026 9:00 AM
@hansolocup Thats where I try to keep mine anyway. 🙂
How do you know when they're prime? Is there a rule of thumb that says like age maduros for 5-7 years, connecticut shade, 2-3 years, sumatras for 8-10 years, etc... ?
10/27/2026 9:37 AM
@thrak yeah, pretty much something like that, but I look up each kind of cigar to see what their peak year is, because They can vary.Then I separate them into groups with similar age time and then I wait lol.
