No, it's all good. I find it fascinating that the little size difference that there is makes a world of difference in the flavor.

I have a box of '03 CJ's and they've still got quite a bit of kick to them. Hell, I think they've gotten stronger in the past 6 months?!?

Blasphemy!!!!!!!!! Do I need to send you more to see if that still stands true?!?!?!?
Lol. I acknowledge it doesn't make a whole lot of sense, but to my tastes, I definitely prefer the Jr's.
I can understand a difference in people's tastes, but I've always found BPCs to be quite earthy. I've had every year since 2002. IMHO, 02, 09 & 11 the best. Haven't opened 12 or 13 yet.

To my taste, the CJ has a little more complexity than the PC. So I grab the CJ more often, but the PC cab is so appealing...

Sure, the PCs have a typical bolivar earthiness, but I just find the jrs to have a darker, richer type of earth. Good to hear the 09s are among the best as I still have 7 left from a box split. Most of my (more limited) experience has been with 07 and 08 BPCs.

I also prefer the other boli vitolas to the PC. Especially CEs, RCs and BBFs.

i had a fresh one and one with barely two years on it recently and they were both different experiences.

the 13 was strong, had a chip on its shoulder and a tad harsh toward the end. still an awesome aroma and flavors.

the 11 was a bit more earthy and smooth. still had some balls though.

i'm still new to cigars and prolly talking outta my ass, but those were my experiences. definitely gonna scoop up a box soon.
