RAE is the factory code. Yes, they were made in June 2015. Congrats on a nice cab! Now put them down for a little nap and they will get better and better.

They just finished their freezer time and are headed into the humi. Let hope my humidity doesn’t go completely crazy!

I just smoked one this afternoon and I think it needs a little rest from the trip. The one I smoked seemed over humidified so I'd suggest rest long enough in 62-65% rH and they'll be freaking singing since they are already aged 3.5 years.

Ohh yeah they will be! I had a '14 Connie A a week or two ago and had them sitting at 64% for about a month since I got them and they were definatly singing sweet somethings for sure.

These are going in the bottom back corner of the cabinet so I'm not tempted.

Those look gorgeous! Gotta try one of those out one of these days. Any other Cohiba's you'd suggest trying other than the crazy expensive ones and LE/REs?

All Cohibas are worth a try.

Siglo 1's are good too

Oh I am definitely going to try any and all I can . Just wanted to see if there were any I should try out first that people tend to like more than others.

Pick the size that suits you best.
Edit to add: Cohibas are one marca that ages extremely well so give them a few months to acclimate and smoke one then don't open the box again, not even to check for mold, for 5-10 years.

Finally found a gorgeous box of Partagas 8-9-8 varnished (SOM MAY 16), forgot how hard it is to find a great box of these recently.

This may be a dumb newbie question, but I've always wondered what the difference between varnished and unvarnished boxes were with respect to these? I've tried to find information on the difference but haven't had any luck, maybe one of the brothers can help me out with this...

The varnished (called that as they are in varnished boxes, you're welcome from Captain Obvious) are 6.7 inches long and 43 RG. The unvarnished, discontinued in 2002, were 6.1 inches long and 42 RG. I found the unvarnished to be milder and somewhat more complex, while the varnished have always been more a tower of power in comparison.
