bob25 Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 Probably asked before but, I just joined th OLH service and was thinking on what will be good boxes to lay down for a long term,maybe 5 years. I know if they were near me there's no way they would last that long. I'll defiantly put down PARTAGAS 8-9-8 VARNISHED Just need 2 more idea. Please keep it under $200 a box Thanks.
dB69 Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 I would go for a cabinet of Party Shorts. (Cabinet = two boxes) Five years is maybe not considered as long term aging, but it's still aging and much better than nothing. Good luck to your project!
Colt45 Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 I don't know if these are the best, but the first that come to mind are the Vegas Robaina Famosos and Clasicos (the Clasico may be a bit over the budget, but I think worth the extra ducats). In the past I would have also included the Upmann Magnum 46, but many members are saying that recent vintages have been more smokeable young (I'm still smoking '05s).
Samuli Posted February 20, 2011 Posted February 20, 2011 I agree with VR Clasico. I have had 2 box from year 2001(ECA, Sep 01) and the have aged well. Still left half box and they are stunnig. All harshness and edges has smoothed and precious taste has left. All chocolate, cocoa, honey and leather - united with strong earth taste. Still defenetly medium bodied. I havent had any draw problems with clasico even though other lonsdale have been quite inconsistency. Strongly recommed.
aes8 Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 For aging I would lay down big flavored and popular sitcks, such as: 10 ct Parti Lusis PSD 4 Monte 2 10 ct Sig VI BGM (recently discontinued) good luck a
El Presidente Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Por Larranaga Petit Corona (the 50 cab will push you over the budget) Partagas SD4 Partagas Shorts and Petit Corona SLR Regios Upmann Magnum 46 HDM Des Dieux
AlexOk Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 What about the SLR Series A? The 50-Cab ist a "bit" over your limit, but imo it's one of the best cigars to age. Look for a 2007-BD. Don't grab the B25-Box. Generally I allways prefer a SLB (Cabinet) for aging.
sandholm Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 HDM Des Dieux, i have boxes and boxes of them and give them 5-10 years and they excellent, cant go wrong, outside your budget you have HDM DC, 5+ years on them and they are also excellent.
Charltonc Posted February 21, 2011 Posted February 21, 2011 Bolivar Petit Corona, San Luis Rey Regios , Monte 4 are just a few I have had some luck with.
