Something Special

[Boss Hog]

I'm looking to get something special. It must be cuban and that I can lay down for about 13 months ready for a family occasion next august. Could be singles or anything up to and including a box of 10 size.
No too concerned about the cost, although anything over ?500 I would have to think carefully about.
Can anyone start me off with some ideas.

[Pantomimehorse]

what about a box of Monte sublimes? they are amazingly good.

[TJCoro]

Let me suggest the following...

If money is not a problem, I suggest the Cohiba Panatela EL 05; or the Pyrimid EL 06; or the Sublime EL 04. I hear the MC Sublime EL 08 is a wonderful puro and readily available.

As you can tell, I'm partial to the ELs. There are many other excellent non ELs available like the Cohiba Siglo VI, but I'll let others chime in on their favorites.

Any of the above would be an excellent choice and make you a hero among the puro aficionados at your family affair.

Hope you find this information helpful.

After all, I'm TJ,TJCoro Damn It! And I always smoke the finest, except when I don't!

[TJCoro]

Still diggin' the avatar, mate.

Decisions.

Decisions decisions Boss.There is so much to choose from; a box of 10 Siglo VI would age nicely over that time period as would the current MC sublime, again in a box of ten.
RASS also age very nicely as well as the Hoyo Epicure No2.

I would try and determine your preferred Vitola first of all and then narrow your choices from there, based on your own taste/strength preferences etc.
Try out as many Cuban singles as you can to give a better indication of your own personal likes and then you can blow the budget on something you know you are going to like.

The question is, do you think you would be able to leave them in the humidor for the time period?
It`s a big temptation to just try one out to see how they`re maturing.

The Cohiba Seleccion Reserva, different sizes for any occasion and all superb, smoking brilliantly now, and will be just as good for a long time to come.
