Default ITT You Help CigarDood Stock His New Humi...

I just upgraded from a 35 count humi to a 250 count humi, and I need to stock up, so I was hoping you fine folks could make a couple of recommendations.

I've got about $300 to blow and would like to get at least one box of cigars that I can smoke periodically as they age (e.g. 5/year for 4 years) and couple of 5'ers.

Here's what I like:
nutty, chocolate, espresso flavors
Taboo twists
sancho panza double maduros
CAO MX2s

Here's what I dislike:
strong leather flavor
Flor De Dominicana Double Ligero
Gurkha Beast/Titan

Suggestions are much appreciated

Illusione CG:4 may fit the bill.

Oliva Serie V may be up your alley. Illusione as the previous poster stated. I'd also look into some of the Camacho line.

IIRC, Illusione is only sold at B&Ms. I prefer the PC 68's myself--down here a box of 25 runs about $120.

I'd also suggest the RP 92s, Carlos Torano Exodus 1959, and either the HdM Excalibur Maduro Epicure or Dark Sumatra.
