The Franks I've smoked (10 or so spread out over the 2 years) were much better younger than older. The black is still great and has lost a little. The fresh Frank and the Tat black CG and robusto are my favorite Tats I've had, and I've had almost all of them.Didn't think too much was special about the SW Maduro. Anyways, enjoy those rare cigars! Definitely the Frank for Halloween, but not if you are drunk or busy with kids - that cigar deserves 2 hours of quiet time...

Well I've only got one Frank which was gifted and it's going down on Holloween. I've had the SW Maddie. I have not had a Black CG. So I think you did really good and the effort payed off!!

The cg blacks have gotten better, if they've been kept in the foil. imho. I've decided not to try the frank have really enjoyed the "mini frank". The one sw maddie I've had was very good. The 1st one I'd smoke is the Frank. Enjoy those special smokes!!

I have a hard time thinking the Frank is losing so much after only 2 years. I hope not, because I have a couple that are set down for the collection. And of coures 2 each of the other releases. I've smoked 5-6 of them so feel comfortable not smoking these for a few years.

I think your Frank should be a Halloween smoke, and the SW on Turkey Day after a fat meal. The Black CG is a great smoke, Sadly I may never see another.
