Question (problem) with Siglo Vs

my guess...they are about a year old.

habanos are raunchy and have a lot of lipsting when young.the stronger the cigar the longer this takes to go away.

more than a few boxes i have opened too soon...to start with...a good cigar and then turn raunchy after a while. eg.bolivar coronas gigantes at one year were badddd after an inch...by the time they were three years old the whole cigar was smokable(tho not as good as a nicely aged churchill).

a lot of people dry there cigars in a seperate (non humidified)humidor for a while to make them smokable when young.

derrek :)
 
I don't recall the box code. I bought them at one the Travel Value duty-free shops in Schiphol. They have a good reputation, and the sticks, packaging, stickers, etc. were all in order. I just dodn't know if cigars got sick an inch at a time; in other words, I don't know why the first inch wouldn't be sick. Noob question, I suppose.
 
I've not had this experience with a Cohiba before but I've only had a couple that were less then a year old. They were still good smokes though much more muted then a nice aged Cohiba. They may not have been properly humidified.
