It is. I just think they will be even better with a little bit of time.

I have NEVER bought any Oliva that didn't need at least 8 months of rest to get the barnyard out of them.
Case in point, Special G Maduros.
Off the truck they're 100% unsmokable. 8 months later and they're phenomenal.
I just got a few of the V maduros today. I'm going to smoke one of them. I'll take it out of the wrapper and give it a week or two in the open air in my winador.
That'll allow me to judge if it's a worthwhile pickup or not.
If it is, I'd like to put 10 or 20 away till next summer.
