As for the L40, for you or me to sit here saying what that cigar will turn into in three years is just blindly throwing darts and hoping something hits the bristle and sticks.

I can see where you're coming from, Adam.
I tried to very carefully preface my opinions by my comments on not only old "value" blends, but also Padron Annis. Some people prefer aging on nc's on a wide scale, I don't. A couple years, yes. Past a few years, no.
Of all the nc's laying around here that have caught a good amount of age, the Anejo is the only one I can confidently say that really hangs on to some spark. Litto's LGD line does well, just thought of that one.
Time will bear it out. I'd be willing to bet you dinner on it, my friend. Whatta ya think, steaks or Mexican?
