Get something you enjoy and has legs to age. If it's a short budget smoke then that's fine. If your looking for something memorable to smoke 1 a year over the next 10-25 years then keep looking.
FYI the 5x5 half corona are not cardboard. Its 5 tins of 5 cigars. I also have zero issue with smoking old stuff stored in cardboard. Some of the best stuff I've had was from cardboard. Depends how it was stored.

I'd say wait until a new list comes out. He occasionally gets '13 stock in. Although as the year goes on it won't be but once or twice something sneaks in.

The PirEx tubos are far better than their box counterpart but the price, even when on sale, was ridiculous.

I'm with Matt and Derek, RASS 50 cab that will get better and better over time.

I have one from April 13 iirc that is coming around

Just a quick followup. Tired one of the aged RASS I had in the humi tonight and I don't think I'd want to commit to a box or cab of them. So, I'm glad I decided to try them first before making a decision. The hunt continues...
Then I take my call back, glad you had one to try.

Try the olh route if wade gets around to it. Or ask a few vendors you know/find. Might get lucky. If it takes a few months then don't sweat it, be patient until you get what you want.

Best bet is pick a few cigars you really want then hit grind on them until you find what you're looking for.

I suggest Coro or sig4 but I'm biased; )
