Smoke or Store ?

I was at an event where I received a number of freshly hand rolled cigars. Some said that these cigars should be taken and stored in a humidor to age, some said smoke them now. I smoked a couple and took the rest to store. The ones I smoked were good, should I expect the others to get better, or smoke them soon ???

Aging the cigars will enhance their taste and the way they burn. As a matter of fact, smoking freshly made cigars is usually not a good idea as they will be too moist and that makes the taste bitter and the burn uneven. You can age cigars up to 12 years, thereafter the oils tend to crystallize and it goes downhill from there. Storing them requires you to keep them in ideal temperature and humidity ranges.
