Hi all,
Was eying to pick up my first CC box purchase, i have picked up packs/singles in the past and have had the following and enjoyed all:

From the list you are looking at...I would go with the following in order:

PSP2
PSD4
RyJ Churchill
MPE
 
Funny thing,but I cant see RASS or Boli Bell in that list.
Am I right?

Anything on that list except for RyJ Churchills and Partagas Serie P #2.

Still don't get the question. If you smoked many sticks that you liked, buy the one you liked the most.

From your list, if price is no option, then the Cohiba Sig VI seem obvious to me.
 
RyJ short Ch and RASS, they both smoke very good right out of the box! :love:
 
I Just got a box of PSD4 and I haven't been blown away. Everyone has highly suggested these and I am just not crazy about them. Them seem a bit to grassy to me? and most of mine have be pretty tight on the draw.

The Monti Petite Edmundo's are great I just got a box of 10 and I have to agree with Jepe that the Bolivar Belicosos Finos are top notch. I'm not sure you can get them in anything but 25 box though...
 
It's difficult for us to determine what you might like...but, with that said, I'd try:

Partagas Serie D no.4 tubos box of 15
Partagas Serie P no.2 tubos box of 15
Bolivar Royal Corona Tubos box of 10

These are staple cigars for me. Not the tubos, though. I usually go with the 25 count boxes.

EDIT: I see you added RASS...they are also a cigar I like to keep around. The cabinet of 50 will reward you greatly if you can wait a few years. ;)

I agree that this is an important consideration at first. You don't have other CCs to smnoke while waiting for a box to age. The '08 Monte Petite Edmundos and Hoyo Petite Robustos both smoke well with no additional aging. On the smaller side, RASCC and Party Coronas Senior and PLPC are good choices in that regard.
 
I'll suggest Juan Lopez Selection #1 or #2 even though they aren't on your list. The #2's I've got from June 08 are smoking good right now.
 
I'm not sure why you are considering buying smaller boxes of tubos when you could buy boxes of 25 of the non-tubed versions for not much more. So my advice is to buy the sticks you like but buy boxes of 25 it is much more cost effective and chances are you will be able to build a collection of aged stock for future enjoyment.
