Default What should I do?

I bought a box of DPG Cuban Classic Toros and had Don Pepin himself sign the box. Now the dilemma, do I smoke them or keep the box intact? I'm torn...your thoughts.

IMHO, it's the box that's signed. not the sticks.

Smoke 'em up

Smoke them, but save one or two to age a while and start up a little DPG stick aging box.

I say smoke em. Pepin signs so many boxes a year I don't see a huge monetary gain worth not smoking them. The extra value I see is you getting a story to tell, and a souviner to show off.

Enjoy the smokes brother.

Question Re: What should I do?

Why did you purchase them, to smoke and enjoy them or to save them and potentially sell them for a profit?

Assuming you bought them for you, I'd smoke 'em!
