When should July 2012 RASS come into their own?

Smoked one last night and see the potential but overall it just felt off. Trying to decide if this just isn't the cigar for my tastes or if they need more time to show their true identity.

Try a couple between now and 2016. I'd say by then the true character will come through....

Wait another 6 months then fire one up. I have smoked RASS with one year of box age and have liked them. But it is personal preference.

when you try one and it tastes good ;-)

anecdotally, my last box was brilliant and strong young but muted from 1.5-4 years old when i finished the box. They were alright from 2-4 years but just alright. Had a definite sick period from 9months to 1.5 years. i ended up wishing i smoked them all at the beginning. But the next box on the shelf might have been the opposite...

in about 4-5 more years

I've had 2012 Robustos - SLRReg, PSDN4, BRC - recently from a box share wit some other on here and loved them all, If I had whole boxes then fine to keep but these seemed to just smoke themselves...

Should be right on as soon as they've settled in your humidor.

A cab of '06 RASS too about 4 years to smooth out.

They are terrific now. I'm down to the last few.
