No, as in the shine caused by the tobacco oils on the wrapper.

Smoke one & see what it's like. If you dont like the way it smokes then put them to rest & periodically check them out...

Agreed. Though I "rest" my cigars once received. As my reward, I almost always smoke one prior to "resting" the balance of my order (2 - 4 week period). The end result is (almost always) better than the cigar that was smoked immediately after receipt.
Just my $0.02
