You mean I didn't need to go through all that trouble and extra money to get a dutch pig? Haha. Thanks JD. Now make my '14 BOTL pig to make up for it :)

JD posted about this on Facebook about a month or two ago. Save those paychecks boys! This is the best Unico on the market with a year's sleep. I wouldn't smoke them with less time though. They aren't as good fresh. With time they're up there with a caramel-slathered Thai threesome. For those of you that have met me that's quite the endorsement. ;-)

I am gonna be honest, I am not a fan of these last two pigs but I know people love them. I would love to see another Liga Pig come out though. Maybe Rat Pig?

I like the idea of a Rat PIg. If they made a T52 or 9 Pig I doubt it would be the same as past ones as the blends of those cigars probably have changed a little bit.

A good sign. The UC Flying Pig was indeed delicious after downtime.

What I really wish is that they'd make future flying pigs the same length as the Feral. The longer vitola is better IMHO.

Heck, even Saka has mentioned that the Flying Pigs were too short for his liking!

What is the probability that the blends have changed and why?
Blends change very often. It depends on how much tobacco you bought when you made the original blend. Some companies have enough, do they might not have to change the blend too quickly. Sometimes a company might only buy enough or grow enough tobacco to last a year, so that may force them to have to change blends for that cigar or tinker with it slightly. The goal of the blender is to keep the cigar as consistent as possible every year. There are some cigars that have changed a lot through the years due to re-blending. Also, each yield of tobacco can be different then others. Blending is an imperfect science, and it's why I respect those who do it well. IMO, the No. 9 and T52 have changed a little bit in the five years I have smoked them. The most recent No. 9s I've had have been better than the ones I smoked last year.
