The main point is, cigars do not arrive in optimal smoking condition most of the time. Vendor, shipping and conditions can all affect the cigar. Allowing them to rest gets them acclimated to your specific conditions that you like to smoke.

As always YMMV.

Cigars often have to fly a long way to get to your home. They are tired and need a few days or weeks of sleep.

I thought that three years was the aging cap? Try starting with three weeks to let your sticks stabilize. If you really want aged cigars, you'll start noticing age after three months.
