On Prime Time Special Edition 129, we wrap up our Aging Experiment on the Aladino Corojo Reserva Figurado and introduce our first cut of Cigar Company Power Ratings.
With the Aging Experiment, we pick a cigar and smoke it, we smoke it 6 months later, and then another 6 months after that. Tonight we revisit the Aladino Corojo Reserva Figurado for the third time and see how it aged over a full year.
Plus we introduce our Cigar Company Power Rankings. Much like College Sports has a Top 25, and how we see many pro teas ranked, we will take the same concept and apply it to cigar companies. Tonight Bear and Coop select 10 companies and attempt to determine who is topping the rankings based on our criteria.
