This is fresh out of the freezer. Very similar in feel to a box of RYJ Nobles I recently purchased...by that I also mean the draw is a little tight. Two twists of the perfecdraw and we are good to go.

The cigar is very strong to start...little worried I might need a sugar spoon behind the lip...but it settles down quickly and is smooth..toasty...not finding many similarties with the rest of the EL line...but its delicious. Ash holds tight for more than half the cigar...flavors are buttered toast and carmel...really really good..a little funkiness too..its fresh as hell...cigar doesnt slow down and cruises to the finish line at a 93...going to get better with time and proper storage.

Finally had a chance at trying one of these from a very recent batch that John said was the finalized blend.Draw was perfect, had the funky barnyard aroma. It was strong like you said but mellowed out and smoked beautifully. I think your review is spot on. These will age wonderfully.
