Patina patience
These arrived back mid year. I let it rest the obligatory 2 weeks in the humidor before sparking one. At the outset, I was disappointed and felt that maybe a mistake had been made in purchasing this cigar. I quickly put that thought aside knowing that time is a cigars friend....in most cases. Well, that was true for this cigar. Nearly 5 months later, I lit up my second and the difference was remarkable. Profile, ever changing, baking spices, earth, fruit notes, peanut, etc. etc. dancing in and out between the thirds. Construction was spot on....slow burn, good ash. I'm pleased to have these in the humidor and the price point makes grabbing a single or a box a no brainer.
