I’m unsure why NC cigars would ‘not age’? The question is more ‘do they age well?’ I’ve had some aged OpusX, Fuente Añejo, Paul Garmirian and Illusione cigars that were fantastic. OpusX in general seems to improve with years of age. I have boxes of Roma Craft Quinquagenario and HVC Esentiales No.1 I’m aging to evaluate.
