Also, the Oliva site recommends their new Special S line be aged 5 years.
They also have this:
Recommended Aging
High Primes (Thicker Wrappers) Maduro/Habano/Corojo/Habano 2000/Criollo/Sumatra/3-7 years
2-3 Primes (Medium Wrappers) Low Primes/Ecuador Connecticut/2-5 years
1st Cut (Thinner Wrappers) USA Connecticut/Cameroon/1-4 years.
These last three lines have been the closest thing to "rule of thumb" that I've seen. However, a dollar says someone, beginning with manufacturers, all the way to consumers, will have a rule for their line, EL, personal fav, or something, that will cut right across these recommendations.
