there is a lot of personal preference at play in this, so i will break it down:
-all cigars are both aged as leaf, and either rested or aged whole before release, unless the company absolutely sucks
-age really comes into play after more than a year, anything less is rest
-only you can know what you want to smoke, and when
-companies do not really like to release a lot of their information regarding production, so let your senses guide the decision
my suggestion is, if you think it is worth chasing, smoke a few when they are released, and decide if you want a pile, and at what rate you want to burn them. rare corojo is released in PILES, but is not available year round. LP is released year round, but in such small numbers that you can blink and miss them easily. it is ultimately your call if you like a younger or older profile.
