Pre-Aged / Differences in wrapper color

Bob_Luken

I restocked myself with Brazilia in the Mazo Mayhem deals. There are interesting contrasts. I got four ten packs. One looks very dark. Three look lighter in wrapper color plus the cello is aged.  

Don't know but, I'd guess those on the left have a few birthdays under their belt already.

It's always nice when you get something that was aged. I ordered some Padron 1926's in a free fall and the ones I received were significantly older than my roommates who ordered his a week before me.

Nice!!  I would attribute the color difference to box to box (bundle) variability.  But that cello is nice! An aged CAO Brazilia is still one of my favorite smokes.

The hardest thing to buy is age. I walked into a B&M back in the CLE once and found a box of hemmingway maddies that were a few years old and priced at Msrp. 

It was like Christmas.

Enjoy those yello cellos Bob.

Yes, I feel like I hit the jackpot.
30 out of 40 cigars I get on sale, are already aged.
I was already prepared to put these to rest for half a year but,
 now I can smoke them right away.
To quote Charlie Sheen,......Winning!
But of course this means I'll need to buy more to make up for the windfall.
Damn! I shoulda' known there had to be a downside.

This was sent as a freebe with an order, the band has almost become one with the cigar. Sancho Panza Dbl, Maduro

Do darker wrappers darken cello faster than lighter ones?

I think more oily ones do
