    The Genesis gets so much better with at least 6 mos and become really nice at a year!

    Good luck!
    I may get a cooler for some aging. But that will pro all be for CC's when I actually get around to buying some. Maybe I'll try to throw some Añejos & Opus in there. Hoping to pick up a few when he releases in November.

    I have a full box of robustos from the summer of '12 when they first came out, in one of my coolers...I sensed the aging potential after smoking a few from my initial purchase, and socked away the remaining box to see how much better they would be after some time.

    I've been tempted to break into that box many times, but it's in a cooler I don't check on too often , so there it remains....

    They should be burning/tasting lovely right now!
    I have to get some & put them to sleep!! I was totally surprised (pleasantly) when I found the one I had after a year!! Great flavor.

    I have a lot of nicer stuff I smoke less frequently but I wouldn't say Im aging them intentionally even though thats whats essentially happening lol. As for what I'm intentionally aging....

    Fuente - Opus, Anejos(mainly Sharks), GoF
    Tatuaje - multiple TAA releases, multiple Monster releases including a box of Pudgies for next year, OR Anarchy, Apocalypse, recent Anarchy release, most of last and this years SnS kit, Old Man and The C, and a few Mardi Gras Attacks.

    CCs - few vintages of RASS(Ive been getting a box annually), RA Superiores, PSD5, Connie 1, Party 898s, Lusi's, Behikes, CoRo, Espy


    I feel like Im missing some stuff but this is probably the majority of it. The cigars I age I lay down because I think they develop more complexity over time. And I'll risk saying whoever said Tatuajes are only good fresh is out of their damn mind. Smoke a Reserva with a few years on it and try and tell me its anything short of amazing. FWIW I think Petes broadleaf blends age better than the other lines.

    I feel like a lot do. Had to lay off the cigars for a couple weeks so as hard as it was it was easiest to try and cut all ties for a short moment. But now Im back in the game and all is good!
