What's a good winter stash?

I like the monte 5 but not the cohiba so much because they need to age but if you have the patience they can be spectacular. HUHC and the Reyes are also great picks

Ah right I see so with some age in them is the key to getting the best flavours. Makes sense as I'm looking at a rough 2 month window which I would think is far too short a time.
Thanks to everyone for helping with the shopping cart and the extra info, always appreciate the insight that comes from experience.

Sig I needs quite some time down but the No.5 should be good to go after a couple of years. Last year I smoked through half a box from 2014 (AUM JUL 14). They were amazing. When I was down to 12 sticks I kinda forgot about the box. Will try to revisit soon.

ah gojira I don't have a big enough collection yet to start ageing, but hopefully a trip to Europe might solve that, I find the no.5 is a pretty good cigar to smoke straight away same with the HUHC

I’m in the process of building enough stock so I’ve got decent levels of aged cigars. Slow and expensive but hopefully will be worth it.

It will be very rewarding in the end.

That’s one of the reasons why I’ve been smoking less. Over the winter I’ll not get through many as it’s no fun freezing your nuts off. I get a lot of enjoyment just collecting them in the knowledge I’m in for some tasty cigars down the line.

anyone tried the Cohiba shorts? are they worth getting for the winter cold?

Yes. Nice and small cigarillos that smoke in around 10 minutes.

I squeeze nearly half hour out of a Cohiba Short but I smoke slowly, they're okay but wouldn't go out of my way for them, if I saw them cheap in duty free I'd grab a box of packs for sure.

Top of the list would be the HUHC, followed by RASCC and the RG Perlas. The Perlas is a cracking budget friendly short smoke.

I've got a tin and I found they're loosely filled and I end up with tobacco in my mouth

O I don't like that...are they more dry cigars or need humidity?
