Ummmmm, tonight. Lol. They sit for two years I'm told before they ship to retailers. I bought a box last week and I'm already smoking them and they're wonderful. Enjoy!Just got em, how long should I store em ' before smoking?

Thanks Munky! I learned that lesson many years ago when smoking a Joye de Nicaragua Robusto in the morning..... (when the wrapper was almost oscuro).
GOOD advice which I will dutifully remember.
Now, when if the HELL will I find 2 hours? I'll make time!
I still remember my first FFP. I had one (and only one) that I was hanging onto for some unspecified special occasion. Then Bryan Glynn gave this stick a kind of "meh" review, so I thought I may as well fire mine up right then and there. It blew me away. If you've ever been to the historic El Cortez Hotel/Casino on Fremont Street in Vegas, well, this thing tasted like that place smelled. I know that sounds weird, but it is not a bad thing. It was wonderful and sublime. In fact, I'm going to leave my house right now, head down to the local cigar bar, and burn one. Thanks for motivating me to do this!
Yeah ... I expressed to bros today that the ffp is one of my faves right now. It is a long smoke. I choose it when I have time. it means I have time to chill...relax .... Reflect and forecast ...the ffp struck me from the first puff and i do wish it wasn't a buy now or wait forever deal. But yeah. Ffp is my shyt. Enjoy it
I had my first piggy today while finishing up a bed for my daughter. It was a two hour plus smoke and it kicked my ass! I am still feeling the nico effects and it ain't pretty. I really enjoyed the smoke but I have to say I like the L40, UF-13 and Dirty Rat better. But, and that's a big butt, the FFP lived up to expectations. Just wish the stomach was full when I smoked the bugger.
Enjoy bros.

I think I waited about 30 minutes the first time I got one before it was aflame...and that was only because I was currently smoking a cigar I was digging. They aren't cheap, but man they are one helluva cigar. Eat a healthy dinner, pour a glass of something nice, and enjoy :thumbsup:.

I'm of the same mindset. It can be tough!
I used to smoke one of something and then buy two more; weirdest thing ever. Still catch myself doing it; no idea why
Thank god I'm not alone on this! I thought it was just me.
I find myself going in my humi, looking at those single cigars and thinking..... Well if I smoke that one idk if ill be able to get another. I shouldn't be like that and instead smoke it and say I had it. Now I need another!
