I'm a huge fan ithe 1970 I agree that the '70 is a much better stick.

I was excited when this cigar first hit the market but was underwhelmed when compared to the '70.

The Dark Corojo seems to have a slight sour taste that puts me off, and I find that flavor in all of the ones I've smoked.

Perhaps if I let some sit for a while like Ratters did, it'll be a more enjoyable smoke

I also pick up a "different" flavor with these. It's not sour for me per se, more like a slight tang (not the drink though, lol), but it's definitely unique to these cigars. I've had some hanging around and so far they've retained this flavor...
