Cello?

[Joe k]

Mostly, Joe k, that tells me Padron feels that line doesn't really require additional aging. That doesn't necessarily mean they might not benefit a little from a year or two in the humidor, but they are probably close to peak flavor by the time the customer gets them. Cello obvious will slow the aging process to some extent, although it certainly doesn't bring it to a stop.

I've never had a Padron -- any Padron -- survive long enough to find out if they improve with additional aging.

They get much better with age trust me, my main reasons for keeping cello on is for protection and IMO I think it keeps cigars fresher and i do think it helps cigars age better in the same way some cigars are wet packed. Cigars are wet packed to improve the flavor over time. Pete Johnson recommends that the cigars he wet packs sit for 2-3 years. After smoking a few DD's I can say I get why he does it.
