Which vitola for the SCdLHs?

Okay, personal top 5 regular production:
1) H Upmann #2 (Mag 46 is good too)
2) Trinidad Reyes
3) Bolivar Coronas Gigantes
4) Tat black label petit lancero
5) LP T-52 Robusto

I've really been loving the cc H Upmanns. Note that Peter Johnson has recommended people smoke the black labels immediately, and Steve Saka used to say the same thing about his LPs, so I would skip those if you just wanted to age something. Tat brown label Noellas seem to age really well, along with the tat verocu line. The original Illusione line seems to age well too. Litto Gomez Diez are another favorite of mine that age well, they can be a pain to find sometimes though.

I'm sure they were. I'll have to remember to pick some up the next time I'm at the aged habanos store 👅

But in all seriousness, the principe is the only one I hear much praise for, and huge praise at that. Next to nothing about the other sizes. Just seems odd that you have a marca that only works in one size 🤔

Going back to post #1, I remember smoking Cuesta Rey's thirty years or so ago that were quite good. The ones I smoked in the last few years were just barely OK. If I had the room, I might just buy a box of El Rey Del Mundo's (maduro) and put them away to age. The last one I smoked had 3 years and some plume and it was superb.

I easily could’ve. =p~

But it was interesting to think about it after 7 years.

I do think I’ve slowed down on some cigars based upon my remaining inventory and current prices to replenish.
