Default Padilla Obsidian?

I picked up two ten packs of Padilla Obsidian belicisios for $50 bucks. I bought two because the I regretted not buying more of the last Padilla Habano on Joecigar. How are these cigars? Are they worth it or should I cancel my order?

They need a good six months to a year of rest, otherwise they taste HORRID!

Don't cancel. Seriously. They are great smokes. Just gotta give them a couple o few months rest. They are awesome though. Seriously. Do a search in the review section.

Agree with the others on letting these rest for a few months. Not my favorite of the new Padilla's(Capas Clara or Habano), but you will be rewarded with a fine smoke in a few months. I'd give these a shot.

They need low humidity as well...low 60s for 6-12 months and they become quite tasty.

I enjoyed these cigars as well. Had two of them so far and neither have let me down.

Smoke one when you get them then let the rest sit and you'll see the difference yourself

My Favorite Smoke! They do need at least 6 months rest, though!
