What is your oldest cigar
and what is it?
I am not sure which ones they are, but I apparently have a few around 9 years old. I got in to this hobby seriously in Sept. 2013. Made a trade with a guy who had quit the hobby and became strictly a piper. In my part received I got 160 cigars that had 2-7 years on them. I have a few of the original 160 left, but have no idea which ones are now 4 years and which were 9. Everything I have bought and haven't smoked yet are 2 years and younger. I have 1 single cigar I have been saving from the original 160 that I have been saving for the day I retire, whenever that happens. A Behike 54.

That Behike is a WONDERFUL smoke. I had one that was only a few months old. I can only imagine what one that has years on it is like!!!

Thanks Brian. Yeah, I don't know which I am more excited about. The Behike or retirement? Well, actually that one is pretty easy.

I'm looking forward to retirement! But I have at least 15 years for that unless I hit the lottery!

I've been moderately serious about cigars around this time in 2013, and I have a decent amount of cigars now with 2 years on them. I've also got a few from 2007 and 2008 that I've bought off of guys here or back on Pxxx.

Behike, yep.

I've only been in the hobby a little over a year now l, but I won a contest on instagram last year that Nick Melilo did and in my prize pack was La Veija Habana from '96
I don't have emotions, and sometimes that makes me very sad.

That's awesome Trey. Have you figured out when you are going to smoke it? I am hoping to try Nicks newest creation Foundation. Will be released next month I believe.

I have not, I look at it every once in a while and think "no not yet". I'm looking forward to trying his new creation as well.

2008 DPG, the original. My nearest B&M had an almost full box that had been discovered last summer sitting on an upper shelf in the humidor, thinking it was an empty box. Bought a couple and smoked one. Went back the next day and picked up the rest. I have about 7 left. I think I gave out more than I have smoked. Next is a handful of 601 Maduros from 2010 that I bought in 2012; the year I got more serious about cigars.
