Dude! They're the standard. Make sure you eat first and take em slow, at least I have to. They're usually better after about 6-9 months of aging. I hear even better after a year or two.

They were sitting in the shop for about 6 months. If I ever get over this damn cough I will try one soon! Thanks for the eating tip!

A place that I would have never expected to find them, a random smoker friendly humidor I happened to walk into.

No joke, I've been to a couple of those shops around here. They have some sort of central distribution or something that sends out seemingly random stuff and every so often you will find a real gem just sitting in the humidor completely unnoticed. It's not often enough to make me stop regularly, but if I'm driving by I sometimes just stop to see if something good has popped up.

I was talking to the owner of the local B&M and was saying they only get Ligas, etc., if they sell X amount of acid, etc. So I could imagine that some places that sell alot of acids could end up with some nice boxes.

The reason I stopped in was that the last time I had dropped in, a few weeks ago, they had a handful of the Opus X Destino al Siglos just laying on a shelf. These I snatched with a quickness like you read about. Now I'm always curious what they have hiding in corners so I show up every few weeks to peek.
