    Same here. Everyone lives at 62% and 65 degrees. If anything I think it may slow the aging process. I also like it because I don't have time to smoke like I used to so it helps me worry less about mold since I don't check on things as frequently.

    All of mine are at 58-60% right now. May seem too low but everything is smoking perfectly. I also have 95% CC's, which seem to smoke better when kept under 60%. I personally think 65% is the highest you should ever go. That old 70/70 "rule" is ridiculous. But that's just my opinion.

    Wait, what TV show were you watching that they talked about aging cigars?
    I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.

    "Billions"
    It was brief, but I seem to catch most of them.
    Even if they turn out to be bullshit.

    Brian, I too keep mine at 62 CC's and 65 NC's. I have a few boxes that I have set back to age and as far as I can tell they seem to be doing ok.

    Steve,
    I keep all of mine at 65 and all of mine are smoking great (when I do smoke ).
    When I heard it I was puzzled because of the problems that present themselves above 70, plus it was on drama TV! But then again you never know so I posed the question to you folks. I'm sure there is still a lot that I don't know!
    Plus I've never intentionally aged.
