I saved 6 churchills from a bundle of Nicaraguans (had just started smoking cigars a month or so before and hadn't yet learned the finer points) I bought in 1993 when my son was born. One to be smoked by each of us on his 18th birthday, when he got married and upon the birth of his first child.
We each tried to smoke one on his 18th birthday. They were completely void of any taste. We ended up putting them out and IIRC smoked a pair of an aged Monte #2's. I pitched the rest of the "aged" smokes.
Maybe it was a good thing I didn't spend a lot of $$$ on them.
On the other hand, a few months ago I found a Partagas Sabroso (tubo) that had been in a box in the bottom of my closet for at least 15 years. One of the tasty cigars I ever smoked.
