Aged Havanas have proved to be a lucrative investment over the last 10 years if you play the market correctly. Many of my clients habitually purchase two boxes of the same rare cigar...one to collect and one to smoke. Increases in value has often meant that the box for collecting has increased to the extent that the box for smoking ends up costing nothing.

I can't think of many rare cigars that have not passed though our humidor over the last decade including Dunhill Cabinetta and most other Cuban Dunhills that were made, Flor de Cano Short Churchills. Every single Davidoff vitola that was ever made, limited edition humidors such as Cubatobacco 1492, Habanos 1994, Partagas 150, 155 and 157th Anniversary, Cohiba humidors and jars, Upmann glass office jars, pre embargo cigars..... even Cubans back from the 1930's!

I always try to sell singles as well as full boxes and cabinets so clients don't have to invest a great deal to try the cigar before committing to a full cabinet. I am also happy to custom build aged sampler packs to a clients flavour profile or budget.

I'm often asked "Is an aged cigar better than a recent production or mature Havana?" The answer is that smoking aged Havanas is an acquired taste. In most cases an aged cigar will taste completely different to the equivalent recent production cigar... this is due to the effect of slow maturing/time on the cigar. A well stored Havana cigar will age and mature in a similar fashion to a fine wine. Over the first year to three years the nicotine/ammonia content and harshness associated disappear naturally and the cigars will mellow in strength whilst retaining it's general flavour characteristics.

Slowing down the maturing process is the key to successful ageing and lower temperatures and humidity levels are required.

The excellent book "An Illustrated History of Post revolution Havana Cigars" is the best reference available with good descriptions and photographs of almost every Havana cigar commercially produced since the revolution. I remember spending a lot of time with the author discussing aged and rare Havanas as well as trying out too many too remember with him on my last trip to Hong Kong! The book has been a best seller for Agedcubans and we are very grateful to the author for raising the awareness of aged and rare Havana cigars in the marketplace.

Extensive articles from the author appear on our website at http://www.cgarsltd.co.uk/document.aspx?id=cigaradvisor.htm which will no doubt make very interesting reading for the novice and connoisseur.

If you are interested in selling a single cigar or a complete collection we would be more than happy to provide a free valuation service and appropriate advice.

Good smoking!
