Oh wow!

Happened completely by accident.
My first job out of college was at a cigar shop until I got into finance. Didn’t smoke much back then, but we were entitled to write off one stick per day.
I just kept them in a humidor and maintained it for the last couple of decades, and began going through it all when I turned 40.
It was well worth the wait 🥹
It makes me want to get a separate humidor and do the same, just stash the sticks I like away for decades!
There are no right answers to this, it comes down to personal taste, but if I’m being honest, I don’t think decades make it better, for 4-6 years is my sweet spot.
When you add time to cigars in a humidor, I find that the strength comes down substantially the longer you keep it there, but the depth and complexity intensifies. It’s no longer as full bodied, you could have it on an empty w/ coffee instead of after dinner
