I've found the BHK 56s wanting for some serious aging. I don't want to discourage you from trying one, but I'd try one if I were you before you make any plans for the others. My experience with the BHKs has been clearly in favor of smoking the 52s (which are amazingly approachable already) while I wait for my 54s and 56s to age.

I think you'll be happy with both, particularly the Genios - one of my faves!

After stocking up on some vanishing Trinidads (Fundadores, Robusto Ts, and Coloniales), I'm focusing on some Nicaraguan and multi-national sticks that may not be around long, particularly the Quesada Jalapa and Oliva V Melanio.

How do you guys get cubans so easily? Only way I've picked up cuban cigars is duty-free in European airports. I've searched the web for cuban cigars and I get a bunch of online "vendors"...How the hell would I trust such companies. Seems it would be easy to sell fakes to Americans that have never tried the real cuban cigars.

Busily chasing down some Tres Petit. Partagas and RyJ. Seemingly other than here in the UK the World cupboard is bare.

I am buying another Cab 50 of Por Larranaga Petit Coronas--man...what a smoke. They only need a few years of age to taste amazing.
