Kai Ø Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 My oldest is only 03. Partagas D4. Have 12 left, smoking one a year. They still got plenty of flavour and the spice is strong. But all ruff edges are goneSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are very strong. Way stronger than any other CC I have also. They are very one dimensional. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donpepin Posted June 9, 2019 Author Share Posted June 9, 2019 Old enough to not be date stamped.Here in Norway most if not all stores stamped the boxes when they arrived. I know this was common in several countries. I saw a few boxes a friend of my bought at a Cgars auction. Those boxes were stamped in the mid 60s by H&FSent fra min CLT-L29 via Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edward7 Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Oldest full box I have is 2015 partagas D 4’s. Other than a box of the piramides selection that came with 6, not really trying to age any of the other full boxes I have. I generally smoke them as I buy them. Lately had a lot less time to smoke which is also great for health, wallet and letting them all rest! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Puros Y Vino Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 In terms of full boxes my oldest would be a box of Partagas Coronas Tubular from around 1960/62. But I did split that off. So my own, selfish, vintage full box would be 1988 Dip 7's. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadroxity Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 34 minutes ago, Donpepin said: Superb cigar Sent fra min CLT-L29 via Tapatalk I smoked one, the box had one cigar with a beetle hole in it and some mold on a few sticks that was wiped off easily. Upon removing them I found 1 dead beetle in the box, possibly it died during the freezing process. These were bought in Havana though. I froze all of my cigars from that trip just to be safe. I smoked the beetle damaged one and even for its youth and slight damage, really close to the foot, it was very good! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you decide when, if ever, to try a cigar out of a box that you have been aging or has been aged for so long? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Was fortunate to pick up a box of RA Allones Extra 2011 from FOH Auction. It's my oldest box at the moment. I'm also a newbie, but diving head first. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wineguy Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I have a 50 cab 2002 Partagas Coronas with no bands I bought as aged stock from Rob a few years ago. In have smoked about half and really enjoy them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SmokyFontaine Posted June 12, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 12, 2019 Waaaay back to a simpler time. A time when you didn't need to lock your door. When everyone knew their neighbor. Back when kids played in the street, and only came home when the streetlights turned on. ...April of 2017 Monte No. 4's. I probably have salad dressings in my refrigerator that are older. I've just started on the Cuban journey. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both very smooth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
