I recommend you use an OS you are familiar with and know hot to secure properly. More importantly encrypt your wallet with a strong password so even if you get hacked your coins are locked away. For the most security use an offline wallet (ex: paper wallets, armory supports this). You can have an offline wallet address, send coins to it, and when you want to retrieve the coins you can bring it "online" by using the private key (example: stored on a scannable printed paper in a safe)
Good luck, and do research!
Also, don't just trust an OS
