- I think they are 50/50 for me. Used to love them until the prices went crazy
- Easily Dirty Rat if we are counting Unicos too, but far too expensive for regular light-ups
- A few
- Lots. there are one or two of the Unicos I have not had yet. Availability & cost being why

1. I prefer 9 over 52.
2. I had a Velvet Rat once and liked it the best. Still have a couple left.
3. Give or take 15 of a mix of LP 9s, different Rats, and Pigs. tbh, when I first tried LP a couple years ago, I thought they were great. Still a good smoke, but the ones I've been taking out of my humidor recently haven't wowed me. Idk if I let them rest for too long or my palate has changed.

9 over 52, my favorite LP is the Dirty Rat. The earlier LPs were much better than current production. Also doesn't help that the 9s and 52s had a price increase of 50% since its release. Probably why I don't buy them anymore.

These are things I've wondered as well.
Particularly wonder how recent production compares to the earlier stuff, and whether they decline with age or not. I haven't bought any because of the prices, but from descriptions it seems like I'll probably prefer the 9. I'll be trying my first pretty soon, a 2012 #9 that B smacked me with.

I've enjoyed both the LP #9 and the T52. But the #9 IMO, the flavors were almost lost with one I had resting for a bit in my humidor. Maybe I had an "off day" when I smoked it or my flavor profile has drastically changed. So I'd suggest to smoke it somewhat fresh if you can. The T52 was a solid smoke and if I recall correctly, it was pretty good with some age.

Trolling troll is trolling.
Id be curious how many people saying the pre swisher LPs are better could tell which is which in a blind taste test.

That's a separate issue for me. . .JdN keeps discontinuing their best stuff imo:
Celebration line as a whole. . & lancero size in Cabinetta line. Used to love the classico criollo but only available for overseas accounts

That was several years ago, so I would think it's mostly settled out by now. I would hope. At least.

I've always just been curious how a couple years ago, a lot of their LP & unico lineup seemed (at least to me) limited and hard to get. Now I can walk into my B&Ms and get pretty much close to everything and anything.
Still enjoy the lineup, just not as much as before. Smoking an LP 9 now actually.

Dirty rat is still one of my favorites. Just don’t smoke often cuz of the price. Like the Ratzilla as well. Like the 9 more than the 52.

To me, the No. 9's are great and the T-52's have more spice and are also great. From a Unico series, I loved the L40 and Dirty Rat. I've also had the A 4 times and they are incredible; just have to find a 2.5-hour time slot to really enjoy them.
The FFP, Ratzilla, UF-13, and UF-4's are all okay. I could never really tell a distinct difference between their flavor profiles.
