Haven't had any of my 2012 smokes, but I will soon.
+1. I have too much stock with some decent age on it now that I don't even have space for any 2012/2013 boxes - need to either smoke faster or buy more storage (the latter not being a very good idea).

If I were to buy/smoke any fresh stock though, from everything I've seen/heard, the 2012 HdM Epi 2s have been pretty damn good.
Just picked up 2 boxes of the Epi 2s and yes they are fantastic ROTT, that's the reason I got 2, one to try and save and one to enjoy now.

The 2012 CoRo's don't believe people when they tell you they need 3 years, these things have been magnificent.
Thanks Dave, I'm already 1 box over my alloted purchase plan for this month. After reading your comment here I had to pull the trigger on another box of CoRo to go with the rest of my CoRo collection. Can't hurt to add a 2012 box.

I agree completely, the CoRo's are smoking awesome. Also I have to add the H. Upmann mag 46 and also Partagas serie d no. 4 and even the Cohiba siglo 2.

Great white North
Half Coronas
Royal Robustos
HdM Epicure Especiales
Monte Edmundos
Parti D4's

I have had my hand in a few boxes of the Half Corona's this year that were all from '12, and they are almost all fantastic. I cannot talk these up enough to everyone that asks me about something new that's great.
I know most look at the Edmundos and say "they are better aged though", but I think that these brand new are actually pretty damned good already. I can't wait to see what a couple years do for them.

'12 is the best year I have found over all in since '08. I think '12 will surpass everything else all told.
Just my humble opinion.

One can't go wrong smoking the 2012 Upmann Royal Robustos fresh. They are great!
I agree...the RR's are amazing sticks. I am hoping to get more in the next few months. Best fresh CC I have ever had!
Also the Upman HC is a wonderful stick as well(glad I got in on a box split)

I agree with you guys about the Boli PC's and Upmann HC's being really good.

Will have to give the Upmann No. 2's and Royal Robustos a try

The Upmann No.2 is probably my favorite my favorite pyramid.

Bought a box of Party 898's and they were excellent ROTT. Great aging potential.
