Cigar that makes you smile when you light up?

[darkninja67]

Hello CA brothers and sisters. I was wondering about this just now: which cigar makes you smile when you light it up or before you take the torch to it?

Looking for a cigar that you KNOW is going to be a treat.

For me, I always enjoy firing up an Avo Domaine #50 figurado. Just something about holding that perfectly formed, silky smooth wrapped cigar that brings enjoyment.

What say you CA?

Late 70s Davidoff 5000
1957 Robt Burns panatella
1992 Punch ninfa

[Flat4boxer]

Oliva V Maduro :ss

[NCRadioMan]

Tat Especiales and Noella. And a number of vintage Cubans that are too numerous to mention.

[zemekone]

H.Upmann #4... all the time

[pnoon]

70s H. Upmann Naturales
80s RyJ Churchill Tubo
Most any Montecristo Especial

[Aldebaran]

Any cigar I can get my hands on lately. I really need a job.

Though I always enjoy A.Fuente Hemingway Signature

[TanithT]

All of them. There's just something relaxing about a good smoke, so as long as it's not a dog rocket, I'm probably kicking back and smiling.

Any of the older (pre-99) Cuban cigars are always a treat. Old Davidoffs and Dunhills as well, whether CC or NC. Almost anything Tatuaje or Pepin, especially with some age on it, will make me light up like a Christmas tree. :dr

I have to agree with Tanith...very relaxing to sit back with a cold drink and light one up. Now if you want to see me do somersaults then it would be my dream smoke...an 80's Davidoff (5000).

I can personally vouch for Tanith and her enjoyment of the smoking experience. Laid back, smooth, no worries and always gracious. I'm just not so sure about her attraction to snakes :eek:

Part of why I'm smiling and relaxing when I smoke a cigar is that I'm not at work and there's nothing around that can kill or hospitalize me if I move wrong. :D

[marge796]

I've yet to meet a cigar that doesn't make me smile when I light it.


:ss


Chris.....

[TripleF]

Just about all of them, especially anything from Rocky Patel! :tu

[kgraybill]

I gotta say it's the Punch Rare Corojo Rothschild. I'm always amazed of the flavor and perfect burn and draw everytime.

[Smokin Gator]

Almost any Monte, a Boli CE, or a Tat Noellas.

[Steve]

All of them. There's just something relaxing about a good smoke, so as long as it's not a dog rocket, I'm probably kicking back and smiling.

Well said :ss

[HK3-]

Any decent cigar that I am going to share with someone or that I give to someone to smoke.

[BlackDog]

Almost all of them, but the few I've had that really seem "special" to me are Fuente Works of Art. I get all misty over a nice perfecto.

[icehog3]

Lots of them, but aged Partagas and Taboadas come to mind first.

[skullnrose]

CC = H upmann # 2

NC = Good ole Padron 3000

[Dunkel]

Anything tasty and Maduro.

[robofan]

Any cigar I smoke when I'm with others who also enjoy cigars.

[AndyMadera]

Any cigar I smoke when I'm with others who also enjoy cigars.

Im the same, specially if they are smoking my cigars. It makes me happy knowing I had something to do with them enjoying a cigar.

*EDIT* That was my 200th post!!!

[SmokeyNL]

it mostly depends on who I smoke with, its not so much the cigar as the company as others have allready said.
But if I had to pick one that makes me smile and relaxes me completely, it's a tat cojonu 2003.

"Congrats" on #200, Andy!:tu:dance: Cabaiguan CE!:dr

[Jimbo14]

Alot of cigars make me smile. But at the moment the Arturo Fuente Don Carlos line probably makes me smile the most.

[skibumdc]

'01 Cohiba Lancero, and PL Robusto RE.

Two different sticks which such full flavors it makes me smile.

[Lucky_Hippo]

Whenever I'm surprised by a cigar it brings a smile to my face.

Ex. If it's a bundle cigar that totally surprises me on quality, or a stick I tucked away to rest and It wakes up right on time. :tu

Maybe because it was The first cigar I have ever smoked. Fortunately I still got almost full box of these.:wo

I'll have to add any Party Short or Boli GM to that list.

[JbGilmore]

La Gloria Cubana Serie R Limitada 2002
Padron 80th Ann.
Any of the Ramon y Ramon sizes

[shilala]

AVO #9 Maduro. It's kinda my "comfort smoke". Never lets me down, always excellent, and mellows me out.

[stearns]

anything smooth. i very much enjoy cigars with spice, with fruity flavors, this and that, but if the first puff is smooth and creamy with plenty of smoke, nothing makes me smile more

stearns

[e-man67]

Monte #2, Upmann Mag50, Tat Black, East, and the new T110.

[MNSmoker]

Cohibas. Especially the lanceros. :)

[Old Sailor]

Punch Black Prince:dr

[bigloo]

I dont have one, but it would be some mild and mellow because that means it is Saturday morning on the deck with a cup of joe, only time I do mild and mellow and it always makes me happy to not be heading to work:)

[Norcal_aaron]

Recently it was a Tat Noella, RASS 07 and a Tat Black. :ss:dr

[carl609]

An LFD DL Maduro Chisel will always put a smile on my face.

An LFD Soloman puts a smile, except for the price tag.

[dunng]

Anything good! :tu

[ProBe]

DPG Cuban Classic 1979 :)

[beamish]

a padron maduro always works

[The Poet]

Many many ones, but I always look forward to an El Rey del Mundo Reserva Salado - a Rolls Royce Hondouran at a Civic price. Nothing pedestrian about this one.

[Adriftpanda]

Boli Gold Medal has been doing the trick for me.

[dubnick]

Boli GM, Tats, and Taboo Twists

[bowhnter]

I'm new but so far a Patagas Super Partagas and CAO LX2s

[wrinklenuts]

Padron 2000 or 3000 maduro or a Punch Rothschild Natural or Maduro.

[MarkMc]

Most cigars make me smile. The whole ritual of taking time to relax and enjoy life a little slower. Every now and then, I get a moment where I think "This is what a cigar should taste like, this is awesome." The last time that happened was a Rocky Patel Sungrown.

[Sauer Grapes]

Any cigar in the presence of any of the BsOTL here.

[Bax]

Depends on my mood. Cohiba Lancero for relaxing and Opus X if I want to relax with a kick in the teeth:tu

[sofaman]

PAM 26 any size I love them all :tu

[Caymus]

I really like the La Riqueza and Oliva V

My wife comes and sits with me whenever I smoke a monte #4, it reminds her of good times with her grandfather.

Any cigar is good for me, it means I'm enjoying life, and not stuck somewhere I don't want to be.
