It all depends on your taste preference. Which you already know.
If you like spicy in your face pepper then light it while you're paying for it.
If you like mellow smooth with lots of....."Umfffffffff" wait a couple years...some say 4 to 10.
I am like a few out there, I love them fresh, BUT I also love them with 4+ years on them. They are like another cigar (in the FFOX line of course).
Smoke one now and smoke one later and smoke one sometime after that.
You will be able to form your own opinion on new vs aged somewhat.
