So I set them down at 60% for about 8 months. At that point, the barnyard tones down a ton, and the chocolate, sweet, spicy, full delicious flavors come out.
Here's a tip...
If you like that barnyardy wet smell, order any Oliva maduro from the online vendors. They always come super wet and fresh. Special G maduros, G maduros, and especially O maduros will totally rock your world. The longer you keep them, the better they'll get, too.
