I've had the #77 and love it. Do all of the Anejo vitolas smoke pretty much the same? Or is it worth hunting down the #77s again?

Cheers.

To me, no. Not sayin' their not similar, the difference is more about flavor intensity rather than how long they smoke or a rg/shape preference between each size. Definitely worth trying all the sizes to know your preference imo. Should be enjoyable trying them all too;).

i will drop a vote for the 46. while sharks get all the love, the CG format works in this blend, for my preferences.

but the only way to be certain is to burn more anejo! o$

I am a fan of the No 50's too

But more importantly, they age fantastically, even a year does a lot of good

So I will usually ask what's left from last years release

1) Anejo vitolas do show considerable variation, imvho, though not as much as the Opus X

2) With 3 or more years of age, all Anejos are awesome cigars, and well worth MSRP to me

3) The 46 is my favorite vitola, followed closely by the 77 "Shark," but the 46 is ready to smoke much sooner (in terms of age)

4) I have not actually had the newest size (60 I think it's called), so I cannot comment on that one

Nate makes a valid point(s)... There are variations between vitolas and the Anejos get better with age. My preference is the 49 and the 77. You cannot go wrong with trying each one and documenting the differences in taste to your palate.
