I can say from experience that its not always the case though, however that's true for cc's as well. There's no "magic" in cc tobacco causing it to age well, while nc's dont.

It's all about the particular cigar you start with, proper care, and catching it during its sweet spot, just like cc's.

I know i have certainly had some cc's that were duds or had passed their prime. Same with nc's. As Bruce has mentioned many times when asked how he achieved such great results in his aged nc's, its just proper maintenance, a good starting smoke and luck.

Age wont make a crappy cigar, cc or nc, transform into a great cigar, it will just make its crappy and older,lol

And thanks for the compliment on my review. I think I have settled on how I prefer to present information, and what information I make sure to include, as that's the main goal of my reviews- giving as much honest information as you could possibly want.

I friggin' love cigars
