I read the Opus need considerable humi time, and have found that to be true. Just had one that rested a year - it was much better than an identical one smoked a couple weeks after purchasing both...Is there a rule of thumb for all Opus in general, or does it vary by the stick?
Also, I just bought my first Padrons - got 3 Padron 64's in my last Cbid order. Do Padrons need a long time as well? I'm anxious to try one but after wasting a WOAM lighting it off the shelf, and seeing the Opus get better with time, I don't want to get a bad opinion of one if it isn't ready or waste another good stick being impatient.
TIA,
BK
I tried aging some PAM 26s for a couple of years, but I didn't really think they got much better, just a little more muted flavor wise.
what he said
Opus get much better after 1 year and a little more year after year.
