These are VERY GOOD cigars! I've ordered many boxes of these cigars from Cigar Terminal and they all been excellent! These cigars, like others have said aren't pretty. BUT, who cares how they look, haha. Each time I've smoked one of these cigars they have burned just fine and full of flavor!
At the price of these cigars, I've ordered many extra boxes of them to put them back to let them age even more. All the boxes I've ordered had a born date of approximately two years old. Two years or younger is pretty much the industry standard for cigars in general. I've purchased cigars aged longer but with that comes a much steeper price tag! I'd rather age my cigars on my own dime! At least doing it that way, I know how they were aged and I can also smoke one whenever I want to!!
I've found with these cigars, they age very well. I've smoked some of these that have been aged for over 5 years. With that, the flavor is different then by smoking them as soon as you get them at the 2 year timeframe. The flavor of the ones I've aged longer are awesome to say the least. They have a much stronger earthy flavor as well as a good spicy flavor to them. I smoke these cigars all the way down as far as I can!! I can't put them down when they taste as good as these do when aged longer! Even if you decide to just let them age a little longer, like smoking them soon after receiving them you won't be disappointed!
I actually purchased another humidor just to age these cigars longer! Yep, that's right another humidor just for these cigars, haha. I don't buy really expensive humidors so buying another one wasn't a big deal. I have a room in my house that has always maintained a perfect temperature regardless the time of the year. With that, I've just placed this extra humidor in that room to allow them to age longer. I'll just put them up and check on them from time to time and then just let them age. Then in a few short years I'll have some awesome well aged cigars!
For the price of these cigars right now, why not give them a try. My son actually smoked one of these cigars right out of the box once I received my last shipped of them. He said the cigar was really good and full of flavor! So I've you're on the fence with this one, DONT BE! I really don't see how anyone wouldn't really enjoy this cheaper priced cigar! Also, when I received these cigars from Cigar Terminal, they were perfectly taken care of in Cigar Terminal's humidor! They were holding at a PERFECT 70%, CANT BEAT THAT FOR SURE!! Anyhow, HAPPY SMOKING TO ALL!!
