I'm late to the party on these.

See that they are popular here and other places, getting good reviews from people I trust.

Grabbed a handful of the Jericho Hill Four sampler recently.

Are these good to go after shipping rest?

Or, do they need, and/or are they much better after an extended nap.......say 6 months or more.

Thanks

I don't know how must rest would change these, I've smoked probably 5-6 varying degrees of age I didn't notice much. In full disclosure though I wasn't enamored.

I think I'd like them a lot with any other wrapper.

Climbing up on Solsbury Hill

I could see the city light

Wind was blowing, time stood still

Eagle flew out of the night... :-" :-"

Don't care for the wrapper. Reminds me of a large baitfish (which IMO has it's place/time)

I'd not had one, but threw out an underbid and won a box under $100 a bit over a year ago.

Smoked one a few weeks back, was pretty decent.

They're not bad, but I'm not buying another box.

Jericho Hill's lancero is called 12 Angry Men. Good cigar too. Rolled at My Father Cigars

Both however are from Crowned Heads.

They are good ROTT and, 6 months later, still the same. I've got a few 44's left from a box I bought early this year...so I've smoked a bunch of them. One of the better new (to me) cigars this year. Not sure if they would be better in a year or more...prolly won't last that long...

thank you kindly...

I'll let em sit a bit, then smoke the four different vitolas over the holidays...

I have a feeling I'm going to like them, based on what I'm reading/hearing

I got the .44shot. They're not terribly complex but they're good with coffee or maybe a good dry stout. Good cigar I just have to be in the mood for them.

well I was anxious to try one, even though it was close to rott (8 days in my cooler).

I just finished the OBS (4.7" x 52).

I'm with cacman and others on this cigar.......I like it.....quite a bit actually.

Glad I just snagged a few more of the 4 cigar sampler at $16.

Gotta say however, that it doesn't taste anything like a Baitfish imo.................and I like baitfish too.

Despite what others have said, I'm still going to wager that after 4 to 6 months, it will be even better.

Had one last night or yesterday depending on how you look at it. Found it rather blah. Bit over a year on these. Wasn't bad, but reaffirmed my position of not buying more.

well heck..................I like em now...................better smoke em now I suppose............they might not only not get better..........they might get worse?

eh.........it's definitely a flavor profile thing...........I know quite a few people who dig em...........which is why I finally had to check them out.........turns out I dig em too......................I'll smoke the other vitolas from the sampler in the next week or so see how they compare to the OBS
