Maduros in general.
Dark thick wrappers.......in general.
I can't afford high end stuff, so my list is all mid range, lower end stuff that do well with a nap.
MB3s
My Father Le Bijous
Padron 000 series maduros
Jaime Garcias
Undercrowns (but not past 2 years)
Jericho Hills
The smaller RG MUWATs (the fatties not so much for some reason)
CH La Imperiosas
Kristoff Ligero Maduros
To name a few....

And almost anything made by AJ.

Circa-2012 Diesel Unlimited 6x60s, smoked in 2017, were absolutely amazing. Couldn't believe they were the same cigar!

So if you want to look past 1-2 years to 5 years or so, try putting away some Diesel Unlimiteds.

(Disclaimer: we have no way to know if the blend changed or different crop years of tobacco may have caused today's Diesel Unlimiteds to not age that well anymore. It's always a crapshoot. But the 2012 ones sure as hell did!)

The joke is, Drew forgot a letter in the name, and it should be MU-WAIT instead, because they get so much better with age. I'm currently aging 14 of the brown paper 10-packs of the 4.5x50 Nightcrawlers I got this last March, probably won't touch them for another 3-5 years or so.

RyJ Short Churchills Tubos get better after a 1 -2 year nap. IMO, aging doesn't really begin until after 5 years. fog
