Anejo quest.

Most of us take the cedar off now since the mold problems of the '06 batch just to make sure they aren't moldy and to more easily monitor them later to see if they started molding.

smoke em. They great now or later. Smoke one of each, age the others. Take the cedar off just in case.

I personally don't like them fresh but give the Shark a whirl and see how you like it.

my fave is the 46 with the 50 close behind.

speaking of which - if anyone in nashville is looking for them, i left about 5 behind at uptown's smoke shop (the 50s that's all they had) and i called old world leaf and ale in brentwood - they have them, but are really price gouging (13, 14 bucks a pop).

I say smoke the 50 and age the Sharks as I have noticed that the Sharks seem benefit the most from aging IMHO. Sauer Grapes speaks the truth so I would do what your local recommended and pull the cedar off just to be on the safe side.

I store them as they come . As for which to smoke , burn a Shark . I had one today at my local shop , excellent smoke , head and shoulders above last years edition . Plenty of creamy dark chocolate flavor . I bought the last 3 they had . I will seek out more . If you smoke the #46 , make sure you eat a good meal before hand . The #46 is the only cigar to ever kick my arse , sweating , shakes and made me totally nauseas . Ate alot of sugar and drank a soda when it hit .

The '06 ones were stuck in harbor an extended period of time. I think that was more a one time shipping problem and not a production problem. I personally leave the cedar on, though Anejos rarely last 3 months in my humi.. I did age a couple 3 years and found I like them fresh better
