Back then I had one of those 6.5’ tall humidors that hold 2-3,000 cigars which was about 1/3 - 1/2 full. I sold it along with the bulk of my cigars. I kept about 100 for special occasions.
For some odd reason I kept a fiver of LFD Ligero’s even though I wasn’t particularly in love with them. I figured that since the were about as full flavored as anything offered then or now eventually they may mellow into something I’d enjoy. Well after lying dormant for 8-10 years I’m very pleasantly surprised at how they turned out. The one I’m smoking at the moment though certainly still full-flavored is smooth and lacks the bite I remember them having.
Goes to show that some cigars are better when aged for a long time before being turned to ash. My only regret is not having bought 3-4 boxes when I bought the fiver.

Mebbe a good read for the newbs as well as a refresher for those longer in the game:

Good read there, Palama. Looks like they’re aging an Eastern Standard. Maybe hoping to get some flavor out of it in the future?

If this is a hijack, I will happily delete this post. I’m wondering what you guys make of this:
