Room for only 7

[RevSmoke]

So, this is simply a variation on an old theme, but play anyway, you know you want to.

OK, you're going to spend the day a cigar friendly event (call it a golf outing starting at noon, with supper, and social time - cribbage tournament for door prizes following supper). No swapping of cigars is allowed, no bombing, nothing of that sort. You are bringing 7 and only 7 cigars to smoke. These are not dream cigars, these are not "I usually have these in my humidor, but I ran out of them" cigars, these are cigars from your present stock in you humidor.

What 7 sticks would you bring with you? (and list 7 significant sticks that you would pass over to bring the 7 you have)

Litto Gomez Diez Americano
Coronado Double Toro
PAM 26 #35
Taboo HSG Double Toro
Oliva V Double Toro
Anejo #50
Kristoff Maduro Matador


Passed over: Tat Drac, Mag50, Mag 48, Monte #4, Opus, Cabaiguan Robusto Extra, Viaje Platinum,

Thanks for playin'!

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Start light with consistent cigars for golf but nothing too fancy because they are hard to maintain on the course. Flavorful and consistent, yet slightly fancy, for the after dinner smoke. And two of the better limited edition cigars for cards, nice, long smoking, enjoyable cigars. Nothing that will kick my ass or over power anything else I would be smoking that day. :tu

[timo]

I would love to play but I can honestly say that I do not know the proper name of most of the cigars in my humidor. I know the manufacturer because it's on the band and I know some of the sizes but I don't know proper names with a few exceptions. I look at the lists that others have posted and don't have a clue. Is it just me? Should I pay more attention, take a course, what?

[leasingthisspace]

I was the same way and still am on alot but you will learn as time goes on and you buy or smoke more or something.

For my list I just grab whatever I fancy at that time to go. Sorry I know I am no fun. I also doubt I will smoke that many in one day. I have before but that was in Iraq and had nothing going on that day.

I could have had even more fun and asked, "Explain why you choose to bring what you bring (chippewastud79 did that)?"

I am sort of curious who will bring only NCs, or only CCs, and who will bring a mixed bag.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

[Mugen910]

I pick whatever I am or might be in the mood for...usually it is only CC :D

Hmmmmmm.

Its not to difficult to pick seven based on my singles drawer. I usually try to bring 3-4 solid smokes and then 2 or so that will work in a PPP or a solo smoke. BUt I never bring seven cigars to herf. Either I only bring 2-3 or I bring at least 15 and sometimes as many as 50.

Boli #2
Cohiba Lancero
Cohiba Robusto
RA Estupendo
Cohiba Siglo II
Montecristo Edmundo Dantes
Davidoff Chateau Margot (realize thats misspelled)

The passing over, well thats a very very long list. But normally I try to bring 3-4 solid cigars for me and at least a couple for PPP that folks may not have had a chance to try yet.

[rizzle]

Ok Rizzle Dizzle..but where's all the buttery caramely flavors that these guys swear by?:r:D:r

Can't help you there, bro.
Unless they're smoking them with one of these in their mouth.
