Im thinking of buying one or two boxes of cigars later this month but instead of the HTF or high end stuff, I was thinking of buying some more everyday smokes to age for 3+ years. I want to ask you guys for suggestions on decently priced cigars that will be phenomenal with a few years worth of age on them. For instance, I think a box of Padron thousand series would be great to lay away and revisit a few years down the line. What do you guys think?
Affordable boxes for long term aging

Blue, not Blur (although they were a great band), and yes... age these. Lanceros, if you can get them.
you knew what i meant
I would be down for any aged lance...def try to get a box of decent lances....serie V maybe?

solid on every call so far. i would add the tat havana VI, maybe in the hermosos, angeles, or victorias (CG, PC, and PL respectively).
but honestly, based on historical inertia, the padron K's. more people have had more success with these than anything else it seems. i love me some londres and 2000's in the maduro.

DPG Blue does do well over time.. as do the padron thousands...
I THINK the diesel unholy cocktails will do well over time... Ive got a box or so of those that have been resting for about a year now that are doing great... I think they will continue to improve for at least another year or so... they can be had dirt cheap if you are willing to wait on a CI/cbid bargain..

They loose some spice and start to taste more like raisins to me. I think the lances do the best at folding their spice. I have some three year old torpedoes that are nice, but the lances are money.

If you like spicy smokes you can't beat LFD Habana Coronas. I bought a box four plus years ago and the sticks seemed to get better each year, which explains why I don't have any left now. ...

Lol Stockton, that will happen eh?
Honestly, so many of the NC cigars are good to go straight when you buy them - that you shouldnt get caught up on aging them just because some people either intentionally age some cigars, or have so many that many end up naturally aged.
If you want to enjoy aged cigars on a budget, why not consider buying some aged cuban cigars. You can order 3-5 packs from various sources and get a good experience, one that you can enjoy right now - and when buying fewer cigars, still fit in your budget.

I've always thought the partagas black might age well
Yea I'll definitely seek out the lanceros. I'm a huge lancero fan and have a decent selection of them already (Casa Fuente, L40, Don Carlos, etc) and I'm always up for trying more lanceros!
Another idea. Alec Bradley American Sun Grown...I have actually had a couple aged sticks and they were quite nice
