Skunk Cigar?
Typically, non-Cubans are very consistent, unless they are 'aged'. With Cuban cigars - ANY Cuban cigars, it's a toss-up. I love good CC's, but have had dog-rockets in almost all brands. With NC's, aging can do good or can ruin an otherwise decent stick. Some are great and others will get...- badbriar

TAD / Time of Year.
EDIT: Fixed Capitalization in Title - Bob This is sure a great time of year to stock up on tins! A few of the premier suppliers are offering great deals, with some having buy two-get one free. I'm closing on the 100 mark rapidly. Not a lot, I know, but should last a while.- badbriar

Broken Heart...
Two amazing McClelland's tat come to mind are Old Dog and Scottish Woods. Not a lot of Scottish blends out there. Actually, 965 is a very different animal, but still scratches that itch. Yep - aware of the asinine FDA dark cloud. As a cigar person, it has had an impact there as well...- badbriar

Broken Heart...
I've been away from the beloved briars and cobs for a while and have just recently seen the light and returned. I am deeply saddened to see that McClelland is no more and some Dunhills are extinct as well. I see that Peterson has picked up most, but not all of the Dunhill line - fortunately...- badbriar

Dead Tastebuds
another thing to try is opening the tin and then closing in in a sealed baggie for a month or two - give it time to 'mellow'. I had that happen with a freshly opened tin of 965 - bit me like a rabid dog. A month later and that pit bull was a little lap dog - nice and cool. 965 is my favorite...- badbriar
