I have only smoked the 1964 (not impressive) and have seen the 1926's, but I don't think I know what a 40th or 80th is.
The 40th & 80th are limited releases in the 1926 line. They retail for about $25 and $30 per stick (box price) respectively, compared to about $20/stick of a comparable vitola in the 1926 line. Not entirely sure of the differences--as Dave points out, they're all rolled from the same tobacco but with different aging. And CA named the 40th Cigar of the Year some time ago. I think that might be one of the reasons why Bruce started the thread--to discuss what the differences might be, especially to warrant the higher price.
