You guys beat me to it; DPG blues, Anejos, and Opies are three that came to mind first.

LOL so you sleep in your humidor, Doc? I should have known! :sign:
And as far as Opus goes, I like them better fresh.

x20 on that statement...especially the SGs...you almost can't smoke them unless you put some age on them...and you realize that AFTER you do it!

I prefer all my Fuentes fresh. I tend to get excited when I open a new box. I just can wait to get at them.

I'm gonna go ahead and say:
El Rey Choix Supreme's get a helluvalot better with age (I hated em fresh, so I let em cool for a few months, very tasty.
Rocky Patel SG's too!

My small experiences tell me that Padrons age VERY well... I have some Padillas from 07 that I think I'll be lighting up soon. I'll let you know 
I have found that most cigars will tend to "get better" with age. I have let most of my high price cigars sit in the humi for 3-6 months before I even think about them. I do this because I hated the first Padron Londres I ever smoked. Came to find out later the guy had just purchased them. Not in the humi for more than a week. Then, I had another one a few weeks later and it was one of the best cigars I ever smoked. This friend had them sitting in his humi for about 8 months. So, ever since I age all of my "finer" cigars in one humi, and keep my everydays in a smaller one. Maybe aging them 1-2 months. But, in my opinion, not matter what the quality of cigar, a little PROPER againg never hurts.

Your a better man than I. I smoked a fresh Opus X Fuente Fuente the other day and my head was spinning for 2 hours

I've never been able to age any Pepin Labeled blends more than about 6 mos. I'm trying, not easy.
I like the LFD double Ligero, especially the Chisel Maduro.
I have some Coronado Double Corona that I tried at about 8 mos. Not bad, but I'm waiting a little longer to make a final judgement. The fresh Cigar is pretty sublime.
Padrons in the thousand series age beautifully, and I like those better with age.
Back as a Villazon whore, ERDM Robusto was nice aged.
Padilla 8/11 Corona ages beautifully at one year plus a little, I like those better fresh, but the aged ones were differant, but very rounded and satisfying.
Also had a box of Tatuaje Angeles with a year on them when purchased. They were wonderful.
