I can give you a few suggestions based on what is working for me, but remember, taste is very subjective and nothing works the same for everyone.
So far I have found that, for me, medium strength and medium to fuller flavored cigars go best with the blanco's/silver's, etc. and milder to mild/medium cigars go well with reposados and especially anejos.
Some examples of great pairings IMHO would be the standard Padron Line, the Fuente Sungrown Line, the Excalibur Dark Knight Line and the CAO Brazilia Line with a blanco/silver.
As far as a Reposado and especially an Anejo, for me, a few great pairings are a Gispert Churchill or Robusto, the CAO Gold Line, the standard Fuente Line, Macanudos, and so on.
BTW, PM me your addy and I send you a couple of cigars to try.
