Some cigars start young or hit a sick period that makes them almost unsmokeable. Did you have any experiences with cigars that started '09 by giving you a gag reflex and finished the year as a prized smoke? I've got 2.
1) HdM, short robusto; These were almost completely unsmokeable when young. The last one I smoked over the holidays was one of the best cigars I smoked last year.
2) Illusione, CG4; This one shocked me out of the box because I'd never had a bad one. It was WAY strong. Too much for me. Now, it's mellowed into that familiar Illusione flavor. None of the harshness remains.
