Re: I think I've come to the end of my "trying cigars".

I was in the same boat as you not to long ago. Since I have started smoking the Padron's I have lost taste for other cigars that I used to smoke before. I have four that I smoke on a regular basis. Of those four sticks, two of them are the Padron Anniversary sticks..

Re: I think I've come to the end of my "trying cigars".

Todd, you'll be happy to hear I went back to the LGD's and Coronados.
The only reason is that I ran out of '26's Friday. :D
Then I ran out of cigars altogether and had to go to a cigar shop here near Nashville. I had to get some Padron lonsdalish things and they were okay. I grabbed an Oliva V lancero, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
Oddly, I had an anejo 46 the other night at the fire and it didn't do it for me at all. The last dozen or so have been disappointing, I think I've grown out of my anejo whore stage. :D

I have personally found that I only smoke so many cigars a week, usually 4-7. And so, I smoke what I really like. And then someone sends me a bunch to try. I want to be respectful and do so, but as they are unknown quantities they sit and wait.

When I grab a stick, I have an idea of what flavors I want from it, for I am pairing it with a mood, or a beverage, or a...

And, as I smoke only so often, it has to be a cigar that really sticks out in my mind. There are a lot of good cigars out there, don't get me wrong. When I grab one, I usually want something that I know is going to "WOW" me. There are some less expensive sticks in that list, and some more expensive cigars. But, I hear where you're coming from.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

If you can afford the Padron Annis on a regular basis, then $$ may not be an issue, but for me the Nica Libre as a great everyday smoke for folks on a budget - I like the Principe the best, around $2/stick and lasts around 30 mins.

Scott; I Used To Chase Every New Cigar Out There, Only To Be Disappointed By Most Of Them. I Would Be Happy With BGM, Cohiba, PL, & R&J Tubo #2's For CCs. For NC's, I'll Take Any Tats, Padron Anny's, VSG's, Aged Famous Nic 5,000 & Tampa Sweethearts!:banger

I actually prefer not to experience "perfection" every time- makes it more special when I do have a "perfect" stick.

Re: I think I've come to the end of my "trying cigars".

Padrons are tough to beat, but can empty my wallet just as fast as I smoke them...I know the feeling though...there was a point in time where I ended up throwing a lot of smokes halfway through because they couldn't compare to other smokes I've had. I try not to let it stop me though from trying other smokes.
