This is not a review but a warning.

I got a box of the OSOK and they are still wet, taste is a little rough and it was wet (Kept relighting). If you have ordered any, LET THEM REST for a while. I smoked a pre-release and loved it. Just wanted to give a heads up.

Heard more or less the same thing from the one of the guys at Empire. Good flavor, but the last inch and a half was a battle for him.

Larry, if you don't have room to store them or are too impatient to let them dry out a little, just send them to me...I'll take real good care of them! :-)

Wish I had seen this sooner. I picked up one last week from a B/M and decided to burn it today. I had a hard time keeping it going for the last 1" or so and had burn issues with it from the beginning. They must really be wet in an unopened box. The one I got was from an open box and sat in my humi for a week at 60%. :-)

I picked up a couple of these this week and I'm wanting to try one out, but will probably let them sit for awhile like everyone else.

Thanks Larry, letting mine sit even though I really want to fire one of them up!

The great thing about the slippery slope that most (if not all) of us are privy, is that we don't need to smoke ROTT, and have plenty of reserves put away with years of age that are smoking perfect! I am thinking about ordering a box of 10, but for half the price I could get AF Short Story's that I know are consistently delicious!

I picked up a couple of the short ones yesterday, I smoked one and I would say there was a lot going on flavor wise. Even a little bitter bite. Some may enjoy this, but I believe this cigar will come into it's own in 3-6 months. Just my opinion.
