Just wondering thoughts on the difference between years...

I found half a box of 2014 at the local B&M for $13 each and just wanted to know if this is a must try?

Only had 2014 and honestly surprised they had them. They have a decent selection for the area, but don't see a lot of new sticks that I see others posting.

2014 was good, but it was a much more mild mannered cigar than it's future siblings. I prefer the 2015 as my favorite of the AA releases so far.

Buy them all if you don't like them you can sell them here. $13 is steep but they will still sell here. I'll buy them.

The '14 is my favorite (I think it's one of CH best cigars ever), flavors are subtle, IMHO it's harder to find a nuanced medium bodied cigar, than it is a high octane full bodied cigar. I get so use to smoking full bodied cigars that sometimes a medium bodied cigar with some complexity I underappreciate.

Thanks guys. I'll see what I can get next time I'm driving by there.

Did the 2014 originally come in cellos? Im pretty sure the box was naked....

BOTL - As far as The Angels Anvil TAA series goes....3 totally different cigars with 3 totally different inspirations.

TAA 2014--inspired by the classic Cuban RyJ Churchill (rich, balanced, nuanced)
TAA 2015--inspired by Four Kicks Mule Kick LE2012 (an amped-up Four Kicks blend)
TAA 2016--inspired by Broadleaf (just wanted to do something big, bold, juicy n gutsy!)

Cheers.
