Unless the construction was poor, burn was probably due to RH being too high and the cigars' youth. Give them another couple years and the flavor will come out. Not very complex. Was your ash uniform mostly gray or combined black and gray? Need to smoke these slow- overheating destroys the subtle, crisp flavor. I can see where some would consider JL2 too mild. Just waiting patiently on my '09s. Had one the other day to test them and its getting there, but not yet.
