Time to stock the Humi. Suggestions?
 

I am an admitted Perdomo whore so I already like all things Perdomo. I've taken a liking to Ghurka shaggy's as well. My favorite Perdomo is the 10th Anniversary Champagne with the Criollo a close second. 5 Vegas 'A's are good too. A Recent smoke of a Liga Privada T52 was great as well. I've had a few RP's such as the edge and the 2008 Autumn Salomon. What sticks do you guys recommend I branch out to next based on the above info?

Doesn't matter what you have had before, try as many different brands and lines within those brands as possible. It will take many, many years but it can be a fun ride.

And even a disgusting bump or two makes the journey more fun and gives you a story to tell!!

check out tatuaje, padron for sure. and i really like panacea cigars from flatbed cigar company.

never can go wrong with some fuentes either.

check out cigarinternatinal, they have good deals on samplers :)

cheers!

Re: Time to stock the Humi. Suggestions?
 

Tatuaje Petite Cazadores Reserva, 601 Blue, and Illusione Epernay would be a good start IMO.

I've had Tats and Padrons. I didn't care much for the Panaceas except for the 54 ring gauge monster. Arturo Fuentes are pretty good.

Your "tried" list is all over the place. In a sense, that's good. It seems you like most anything. My suggestion would be to get in a couple trades, buy a couple samplers at the WTS/WTB forum, and get acquinted with a lot more stuff.
As you find things that you REALLY, REALLY enjoy, grab a box here and a box there.
Take your time, it's not a race. This whole hobby is about learning, and trying to master the fine art of patience. :tu
As far as what to try right now, A really nice starter stick are any of the Punch line. They have flavors that are decent and varied. Torano and Cusano are a couple brands that everyone seems to try, even if they don't stick. I was in love with both for about five minutes.
As you try new things, you'll find your taste and wants will morph until they settle, and you don't want to be sitting on a humidor full of boxes that you don't really don't reach for anymore. Eventually you'll find out what you truly like, and you'll gain the knowledge to seek those things out. That's a good point to start grabbing boxes, because at that point you'll absolutely know that the cigars you have in your humidor are tried and true, and you'll eventually go back to them.
Be forewarned that lots of nc's don't age so well. That's kind of a misleading statement, so bear me out. What happens is that they are usually subpar for the first 8 months, then get stellar for the next 8 months to a year, then start falling off in flavor. After a couple years they tend to really suffer stregth-wise, and you'll find yourself with a very different cigar.
This may or may not be good. To me, it's not. To you, it may be great. Also, that's not something that happens across the board. Some nc's get better and stay better, so there are definately exceptions.
I try to only keep the nc's I can smoke or gift in a couple years on hand, and not too many of one kind. I try to keep my stock new-ish.
Cc's keep much better, so that's where one might want to devote their storage space, unless they don't smoke a lot of cc's. Guys generally end up at cc's sooner or later, so it's probably good to have some room available.
I probably covered way too much, and didn't cover any part well enough, but the guys will fill in the holes with the parts you want to hear about. :tu

Oliva Serie V and O are also great. I like Camacho SLR Rothschild Maduro, but its a tad bit strong.

Re: Time to stock the Humi. Suggestions?
 

No kidding, especially when you start ordering cigars that take a month to arrive...


In all seriousness, though, the NST and trades like that are the way to go.. you'll find yourself enjoying cigars you never thought you would like.

Re: Time to stock the Humi. Suggestions?

Try some of Fuentes stuff. Hemingway and Don Carlos are both great readily available.

Re: Time to stock the Humi. Suggestions?
 

I ordered a 5 pack of Padron 1964 Principe Naturals. I'm adding more for Friday shipment.
Now, I'm not a beginner smoker, by no means but I haven't branched out to try new things. I'll take some of these suggestions and add to my order.
