Favorite NC smoke, right now!

[bigdix]

Not sure if it's been done before. Curious what everyone's favorite NC smoke is right now, in your humi. (Just a slight pimp for suggestions I guess.) With what I have in the humi at the moment I'm going with the Ashton VSG Illusion. Look forward to the posts!! If it's a strange one, a pic might be nice! -(P

[bigdix]

Bueller? At least I didn't say "Gurkah" :D

[tsolomon]

Illusione Holy Lance or a Tatuaje Especial are my two favorite NCs right now. :2

[Eleven]

I'm still liking the Rocky Patel Sun Grown Petit Corona.
OR.
DPG Cuban Classic Robusto.

[neoflex]

Currently I am a complete Liga ho, with the T-52 Toros being my favorite. Ask me this same question next month, I may have a different answer for you.:D

[TripleF]

Jesus Fuego 777 Maduro Robusto

[waffle]

Right now I'm a whore for la gloria cubana artesanos de tabaqueros. Something about a cigar that smokes like 2 unique cigars makes me happy.

[fhrblig]

Oliva G or V. Vitola doesn't matter; they're all good.

[JJG]

probably would have to say Opus X is my favorite NC even though I don't get to smoke them as often as I would like. My favorite "everyday smoke" is the 601 red rabito, although they can be hit or miss.

[rizzle]

That I have in my humi right now and keep in quantity...probably My Father lanceros and Tatuaje Noellas. Although recently I'm trying to work through a bunch of other loner singles I've aquired and I haven't smoked either one of those in a couple weeks.

[icehog3]

Esencia Petit Corona.

Great value/great flavor

Most of those mentioned above are 'way outta my budget on a regular basis. I've been smoking a LOT of JR Ultimate Petit Cetros maduro of late - partly because they are very good 45-minute smokes appropriate for my hot weather tolerance, partly because I've been getting boxes of Habanitos with them for only an additional 5 bucks.

Gotta find some of these.....

Some great selections on this list. Kind of a toss up for me between San Cristobal, 601 Green and DPG JJ Maduro.

[Adriftpanda]

Right now? El Triunfdor, the og blend, or Viaje exclusivo (jar edition).

Right now Cain Maduro Robustos and Liga Privada #9 Toros...just awesome.

[srduggins]

It changes every week for me, but my last favorite NC is the Tatuaje Verocu #9, and my last one as well.

[Smokin Gator]

Favorite for quite some time has been the Tat East Coast. Running a little low though so it is a once in a while smoke. As far as an every day smoke the Tat Noella holds the top spot.

[maverickdrinker]

I am liking the Drew Estate T52s and opus X when I reach for an NC.

Got a box on clearance at a local B&M recently... haven't cracked it open yet though! I was talking to Dan from NHC today, and he says that Tabacalera Tropical's Arganosa leaf is being used for this and it's divine! I may have to
pull one out tonight!:tu

Man I really should have did multiple quotes, and replied to all of you guys in
one reply!

I don't really have a go to, but i'll soon have multiple boxes of Jaime Garcia's
hanging around so we'll see how long that kick lasts!:r

Nice choice, brother!! :tu

[jmsremax]

I have quite a few that are still seasoning up (anejos) which could change my opinion, but my favorite for the past year has been the Oliva Vs.

I do love the DGP Blue CGs... and at the price they are available for I smoke a bunch of them... But they are not on the TOP of the list. If I could afford it I would buy every Eastie and Noella (especially the Reserva).

[dwoodward]

Currently in my humidor. Gurkha Micro Batch Liga TPB-1...

That's right, I said Gurkha. If you wanna send me a bomb to prove me otherwise, go right ahead haters!

Padron 1964 Maduro Exclusivo

[bigdix]

DPG Blue

I'm a fan of Tats, etc. But haven't tried any of the DPG. The blue seems to be pretty popular, so I may have to try a few. And of course by "may" I mean "absolutely will"....I hate the guy that pushed me down this hill!! :xxx

[bigliver]

I'm digging the Viaje lines right now. The Summerfest and DES are superb. OK, so maybe most of the Viaje lines. The 50/50 kind of freaked me out a little. I'll have to revisit that one.

[Pass]

LFD DL700 Maduro is still my favorite (even though I just ran out :( ).

Unfortunately, i haven't tried half of what's listed here. The Liga Privado t52, Vaije 50/50 and Summerfest, and of course the Opus X & Anejo are all sticks that I'm dying to try. Who knows, one of them may beat out my DL700s :)

[Brutus2600]

A couple weeks ago I had a Tatuaje Havana VI Almirantes (7 x 47) and instantly became what I've heard you guys refer to as a certified "tat whore." It was that instant. I had been wanting to try some different tat cigars from everything I've read on here, and from the moment I lit that cigar and over the next two hours I had officially decided in my mind that I HAD to get a box of these and try all the other tat cigars I could get my hands on. I've had a few other size Havana VI's since then (only other ones I have, can't find them at any local B&M's) and each one has been just as good.

So I guess you could say right now, my favorite NC smoke, is the Tatuaje Havana VI.

[brigey57]

Yeah I liked the RP Sun Grown a bunch the first time I smoked one, but I have to say that I liked the Arturo Fuente Opus X more, just MHO.:xxx

I'm still liking the Rocky Patel Sun Grown Petit Corona.

Right now, I would say the Cubao. Closely followed by the new blend El Triunfador No. 1

I've been dying to try these....something else always seems to beat them out when I go to buy a box though. It's on the list!!! What do you think of them???

[kelmac07]

Been really digging the Viaje line a lot lately!!

I like them both. Cubao has nice woodsy sweetness. Triunfador is medium bodied and perfect for any time of the day.

[CigarNut]

My favorite is usually what I have in my hand at the moment :)

In my humi at the moment I have a small variety of Padron Maduro (1926, 1964, 2000, and 4000 -- seeing a pattern here?). I aso have some Perdomo2 LEs, Brickhouse, Diesel, Cubao Maduro, and Gran Habano Corojo #5. These are all my favorites.

How are those Diesel's?? Keep seeing them around...seem like an "underdog" sort of a smoke. Not too much attention, but they keep showing up in a few respectable humi's.

Diesel's are a great smoke! Worth every cent, IMHO.

[bigdix]

Thanks M.J., might have to try a few!! I'm such a Garcia/Giolito/Ashton whore....need to expand my horizons. Oh well. LFD's on the way.

[CigarNut]

Not too much attention, but they keep showing up in a few respectable humi's.The Diesels are very nice -- especially for an inexpensive cigar. I have never had any draw or burn issues with any of them and they have decent flavor. Definitely on the recommended list!

Diesel's are great, and I hear the shorty's are even better!
I love the nUb Maduro (only one I actually like from Nub)
and I'm willing to bet that the Shorty outshines the
Nub knowing how Meticulous, and particular AJ Fernandez
is about his cigars!

I've only tried a handful, but i've never had a draw/construction/
burn problem with his cigars to date! Can't say the same for other
manufacturers. This guy is gonna be around for a Looooong time!

Oliva V lancero, closely followed by Brickhouse robusto.

[Chingas]

Ashton Heritage. A revisited smoke for the course and was absolutely exceptional.

On the cheaper end I was very surprised by Alec Bradleys Harvest 1997 Habana. Very good stick.

[pektel]

My repertoire is very limited. My favorite smoke I've had so far is a CAO Brazilia Gol!. I should've bought more than a 5 pack. Maybe I should try cigarbid.... but I've been avoiding that site thus far. I haven't even typed in the url yet for fears of no return.

[Ewingrules]

I like the Viaje Oro Reserva.
