    Remember that cigars typically need 1-2 weeks in a humidor after being shipped for them to taste right - smoking them before then is pretty nasty
    I respectfully disagree. Some cigars are downright nasty straight from the mailbox, but I've had more than a few that were very good. Luck of the draw at best, but I don't feel that what you said holds true for all cigars. Though with the Vintage 1992...I'd agree that it would be nasty right out of the mail...then again, I think they are pretty bad regardless, so take my opinion with a grain of salt. :)
    Well, I gotta respectfully disagree with you :) In my experience, I've never had a good cigar out of the mail; after 4 days they're tolerable, but after a week or so, they're nice and smooth.

    Also, I live near Tampa Florida, so when my smokes come in, it's about 80-90F outside and probably even worse in the UPS truck

    Question, challenge, and always keep a fresh battery in your bullshit detector
