Soooo....does that mean not good rott?For the price they're crazy to smoke them ROTT IMHO
That was the consensus of the few that tried them fresh. A lot of warped cigars get significantly better after 6-12 months. The description of the original drop indicated that they aged 90 days, so to me, way too fresh. I waited a couple of months before trying one and thought it was really good, but had potential to be great.Soooo....does that mean not good rott?

Kyle Gellis is trying to get as much juice as he can from the squeeze. He will clutter his good work with crappy product if not careful.I felt the rerelease of the DR Corona De Luxe wasn't that great after letting it rest. The rerelease of Black Honey as well, and then some time after still got same results. I'm hoping these don't follow the trend. I haven't had either of the 2 earlier Drops to see where they stand. But I was a little hesitant about getting this release.

I disagree, at this point I think they are both really good, particularly the Corona.I felt the rerelease of the DR Corona De Luxe wasn't that great after letting it rest.

That's a very cynical view. Limited editions could be pure marketing for a quick money grab, but for many small brands, I believe it's an honest attempt at creating something special, though not always successful.Kyle Gellis is trying to get as much juice as he can from the squeeze.

Not at all cynical. It's an observation based on his recent moves.I disagree, at this point I think they are both really good, particularly the Corona.

I was going to light a The Absurd tonight. After cutting I took a cold-draw and found the most unpleasant, plastic-y, ammonia flavor I'd ever experienced. I don't know if I'll ever be able to smoke these.That was the consensus of the few that tried them fresh. A lot of warped cigars get significantly better after 6-12 months.

Hmm. I smoked one ROTT and didn’t experience anything like that, maybe beat the sick period? It will probably be a bit before I revisit them.I was going to light a The Absurd tonight.

Thanks for letting me know. I'm going to leave them alone for at least 6 monthsI was going to light a The Absurd tonight. After cutting I took a cold-draw and found the most unpleasant, plastic-y, ammonia flavor I'd ever experienced. I don't know if I'll ever be able to smoke these.
Yeah, but come November I'm done smoking (for a couple years at least). Hence I don't know if I'll ever be able to smoke em.Ammonia means sick period. Let hem rest 6-9 months.

I had one ROTT also with no issues? Don't they say something like within the first month of rolling, or a year after that, to avoid the sick period?Hmm. I smoked one ROTT and didn’t experience anything like that, maybe beat the sick period? It will probably be a bit before I revisit them.
