Wow 5 years! I better go find an aged box lol or go get some MOFOH Spada Gorda.

So you buy a box and discover it will benefit mightily from time down. Then you buy an aged box of the same but don't want to burn them too rapidly as the are very good but pricey. When you get some Spada Gorda to tide you over while you savor the aged sticks and wait on the young ones you will be a full blown out of control Cuban cigar a̶d̶d̶i̶c̶t̶ connoisseur.

I smoked one last month with about a year on it and it was brilliant. They smoke well young, in my opinion. They just elevate to a special level with decent age.

Yes, my 2024 was in the top 5 cigars of the year for me in 2025. I wouldn't hesitate to try them young.

Might have to but will definitely try to find something with some age on 'em first.

Are these the same length and ring gauge as the Lusitanias?

No. Those are a Double Coronas, which have a 49 ring gauge x 194 mm (or 7⅝ inches length). The H.Upmann Sir Winston shares the same vitola as the Romeo y Julieta Churchills and Cohiba Esplendidos. It is a Churchill-sized cigar, with a 47 ring gauge x 178 mm (or 7 inches) length.
