When you get a young cigar that has flavor, but is unimpressive; are there certain flavors that indicate it will age well? I was struck by Rob and Ken's recent Quai D'Orsay corona review (summary: "pleasant cigar but needs age") and some of the flavor similarities reported there and in a recent Partagas Series E Number 2 that I tried (LOE AGO 12); also a decent but unimpressive smoke that shared the same subtle, doughy/bread flavor that Rob and Ken reported with the Q D'Orsay. Anyway, flavors like chocolate and honey and hay and leather seem to be common in various intensities across the spectrum of cigars of almost all ages, and so I don't think those would be good aging indicators, but are some of the odder, rarer tastes (like dough, like bread, like agglutinated oxidized hydrolyzed tumericase ) indicators that a cigar will be much better in 5 years?
