I smoked one rott...should have let it settled a week first. That being said I found it a good cigar. Not really mind blowing as I'd hoped it would be though.
I love camerooon cabinets. My favorite is the No.1 which I think in most cases are more aged than the chisel since it's a newer addition to the line. I would say they're find to smoke now with no issue. Last year I was smoking through some 2006 cameroon cabinets and they were awesome!
