I have several from 15 years ago. Gurkha, Graycliff, Cuban Rafters. Sancho Panza, many of them had 5 years on them when I got them. Pretty much most of the smokes that have a fancy label but not strong enough for me.They are all super smooth by now.

Several mid-80s RyJ Churchills and many from '90-'95 various Cubans before they reblended to the weaker strengths.

Oldest NC are probably late '90s Padron 1964s and FFOX Power Rangers.

All it took for me was Phillip Morris giving out free 5 packs of cigarettes at the KY State Fair to anyone who could walk and my dad's four pack a day addiction to Camel unfiltered cigarettes. I quit smoking cigarettes in '86 and picked up cigars about seven years later. Went head first into it and bought and smoked everything that you can get legally and illegally up until I gave it up around 2012.

Kids these days are taught from the womb that smoking of any kind is as evil as global warming. Sarcasm

Nothing wrong with teaching him how to be a proper gent. There is no way either of them can know that. Someday they will thank you.

Don Thomas double claro from 2004. I smoke mostly maduros, so it will probably stay in my box for another 10 years.

Got a brass can type humidor with 24 La Coronada Corona sized perfectos by I. Lewis from the 1950s in it.
Good chance they're either clear or mixed Habanas. Haven't found anything about 'em so far.
When ya open the humidor/can ya get a clear whiff of amonia!

Don't know if this will help but here is some info that I was quickly able to dig up on the internet.

Coronado Cigar Label from a box

Here is a link to the front page of the Cigar History Museum website.

Almost everyone I have told has said the same thing, especially the guy from the shop, he is holding me an empty box from the 1880's, pretty cool, and got such a kick out of that idea, he said I should definitely put that on youtube. I ain't right, and most likely will have some fun doing this, hehe
