Long term aging for my daughter's birthday box code

[jimmy_d]

I saw someone asking a similar question recently, but screw it, I'll ask anyway lol.

I want to buy a box with an October 17 box code when my daughter is born to age over the years. As my cc aging knowledge is limited, and I've only smoked sticks with less than say 5 years on them, I'm looking for recommendations. Lucitanias, esplendidos, sig IV seemed to be pretty popular from the other thread.

So my plan is that I'd like to try some of the recommendations and see what I like before biting the bullet when Oct 17 boxes come out. So what should I try? Thanks in advance fellas.

Congrats brother! I too will be following this to see what others suggest since I'll be on the hunt as well for that box code....

Esplendidos....I have 3 boxes that I've aged in consecutive years from 2000 -2003 and they smoke amazingly well. I smoke one from each box about twice a year since 2010 and kept em at 65% RH the whole time. They are worth twice what I paid and wouldn't hesitate to age these suckers from any year.

I agree with @Cigary43. Properly aged there is no better cigar on the planet than the Esplendidos INHO.

Not even Choix Supreme? I love those things aged

If you have the cash ... espys ... if you can find a good price.

Otherwise I'd recommend Coros if you wait a bit. Or maybe a Siglo 3 or 4.

@Hopduro As much as I loved the Choix Supreme the Espy stands alone.

Hoyo Double Coronas are outstanding to age. Explendidos of course. San Cristobal de La Habana- El Morro. I have been smoking the 2001 version it's one of the best cigars I have ever had.

Ramon Allones Gigantes and Punch Double Coronas are also excellent

That ain't bloody likely....the pricing on these is like putting a down payment on a car.

D4
P2
BBF
BRC
Epi Especial
Epi 1
Punch Punch
RyJ Churchill
Trini Coloniales
