What's the longest sitting cigar you have in your humi? I think the oldest ones I have is almost about year and a half. Not including the aging before it was boxed.
i have a few that hit my humi in 06. but i also have a few cigars that have not been in production since the 90s. i think i may have a few sancho panzas from 04 that were gifted to be by an old time BOTL from the old cigar.com forum (AmBack now eotac)
Lets see i got engaged in '03 and on that trip my wife bought me some locally rolled PE's a travel humi, cutter and lighter as a gift. I still have 2 of those aging in my humi.
I may dust one off this weekend. They are definately rolled in a conny type wrapper.
I have some Partagas 150 that were boxed in 1994 but I bought them in either 07 or 08. But I think the ones that have been in the huni the longest are some OpusX from 2005 or 2006. I also have a Monti maduro something... that has been around since 2006 and a Partagas 160 from around the same time. I think that is it.
That would have been the Gurkha C-10 I just smoked on Sunday, which had a year on it.
...of course that year was spent in Alex W.'s humi, not mine. Now that it's gone I don't have anything in there with more than a few months age on it. Well, unless some of the other sticks Alex sent over are older too lol.
not old enough. I'm new to the game, but started aging immediately. So I have some in there that are close to 10 months, but thats it. I'm not super keen on aging though for now. I am too anxious to try new things. So maybe in a few years, I'll start aging some Padrons and Fuentes and all that jazz
My first humi was back in September and I think I have a couple of Graycliff 1666s from that time, so they are at most 7 months? I think I'm at the point of buying an aging humi and start squirreling some sticks away.
AF hemmingways, a graycliff (red), ISO Monties, Gurka Lengends, Opus, and a bunch of others from 04,,,,,so thats 6 years on em. I recently tried one of the hemi signatures from that box and it was great.
If we are only counting since it has been in my humidor I dont really have anything with much age on them at all. I think the oldest would be 2 Red Dot Cohibas that have about 10 months on them but if we count the B&M's humi as well I just picked up 2 Opus X's from a box that they got when they opened in 08. Wow I just realized that most of my cigars are in 2's. I guess I just dont want them to get lonely.
My oldest is just over a year. I now have an "aging" humidor in which I keep half my orders. Hopefully, if I can keep my mitts off them, I'll have some for several years.

Hey bro, I hate to ask this but what else did I send you?? That way I can tell you how long it has been in the good ol humi! The oldest sticks I have are three Gurkha Turks at one year!
I have a few sticks with about three years on them that were gifted to me. I didn't start storing my own till about six months ago. I have an Aurora Camaroon, a CAO L'Anniversaire Maduro and a Cusano 10th Anniversary.
The oldest one I've personally stored is a Gurkha Titan II with six months on it.
I have a Romeo y Julieta 1875 my Brother-in-Law gave me when my daughter was born in 1992. Now that cigar has some age on it. I can't smoke it now because of the history involved. My thought would be to smoke it at her wedding. It looks good in the Yellow Cello.

That's some serious age, wonder how it's gonna taste when you do finally smoke it.
I have a few left from my wedding, Aug 15, 1970 , older than a lot of you guys reading this... I am saving one each for the grandsons HS graduation & one for the 50th wedding anniv. IF we dont kill each other first hahahahaha Enjoy, Vince

I think at this point it will be kind of washed out, they are mild to start and age will not add much to it. I may be wrong, but I shall let you all know when the day comes.

So it looks like the oldest in my humi is now most likely one of your Turks
I have cigars from when I first set up my main humi, March of '07. So just over three years
I take that back. In that first order arrived a 5 Vegas Limitada 2006 which still sits on my top shelf (note to self, put that in your chickens**t list). So that probably has 4 years after rolling.
