Somewhat of a newbie here. Just recently purchased the allstar sampler from holts.com which consisted of:

1 Ashton Cabinet Tres Petite - 4.38 x 42
1 Old Henry Toro - 6 x 52
1 Fuente Fuente Opus X Perfecxion X - 6.25 x 48
1 Ashton Virgin Sungrown Torpedo - 6.5 x 55
1 Padron Anniversary 1964 Imperial N - 6 x 54
1 Tatuaje Havana VI Verocu Zona del Este - 5.5 x 54
1 Don Pepin Garcia Black Label Robusto - 5 x 50
1 La Aurora 100 Anos Belicoso - 6.25 x 52
1 Arturo Fuente Hemingway Classic - 7 x 48

just wondering if there are any cigars here that I should give more time in the humidor before smoking thanks.

I won't be answering the question since I am a newb myself, but I wanted to know how much did this sampler cost you?? These are great cigars there.

I think most will tell you to let the opus x, padron, tatuaje, and the ashton vsg sit for a while. This will probably be my next order from Holt's. Sounds like a great sampler. Good luck

I got this same sampler and I agree about the OpusX, Tatuaje, and Ashton VSG but I could not wait to smoke the Padron '64. It was fantastic even without aging, just like all the other Padron's I've had.

I'd put the Tatuaje in particular away for a long time unless you like very strong, spicy cigars.

My La Aurora 100 Anos Belicoso was impossible to keep lit. I'm curious how yours is.

I must have gotten a substitution for the AF Hemingway as it was way too short to be a Classic. Mine was Work of Art size. Hmm ...

Any Cigar will do better with a little time in the Humidor.
Let them sit at least a couple of weeks.
