Don't take this comment wrong, I'm a self proclaimed Tat whore and it's fun getting the limited releases...but it is definitely frustrating when you like the cigar but no more will ever be made. I'm glad that's not the case here.

Just smoke them. They won't get any better with time. If anything, you'll lose the spice that makes these LPs what they are.

As far as Tats, I will never understand the infatuation with them other than the thrill of the hunt.

That is highly subjective.

You might lose some spice but may gain complexity which many of us prefer to straight spice, or the spice may get even stronger. Part of the fun of our hobby is seeing how a particular cigar progresses over time.

As I mentioned before my one of my locals had a DE event this past weekend. According to the rep the Liga 9s are going to be a little scarce for at least 6 to 8 months due to low yields of the wrapper due to cooler temps in the Connecticut Valley during the summer months the last couple of years so if you really enjoy the 9s and have access to them you may want to stock up. I know the T-52s have been kind of scarce lately and it seems the 9s are following suit although the T-52 inventories are supposed to be getting better in the upcoming weeks.
