Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Hard to say what was the best or my favorite especially if I am including ones I have sampled in PPPs. However a couple stand out


Almost every cigar from this bomb in '07 (thanks Twillis) but especially the '83 ERdM PL

40s Cabana thanks to Balls

And an 02 RA 898, though I think this one was less to do with the cigar and more with the location and the company.

Many more spring to mind though they are almost all tied to a good herfing experience so I often wonder how good they were or was I just in that good a mood.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Rocky Patel 15th Anniversary. Oliva Serie V is right up there too.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

:dr

Man... why did they have to stop making those? :sad

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

I agree a great cigar, but at least the Sunsets at Shack will be around

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

I'm not sure I could pick just one but these come to mind:

Monte C
'01 Cohiba Lancero
'98 Boli Corona
'98 ERDM Tainos
'02 Sir Winston

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

This is pretty much it for me.I'm pretty easy to please.

I've smoked five dollar cigars and even a five hundred dollar cigar and honestly, no one cigar has ever stood out.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

My 3 favorites are a bit more humble than some of the other ones posted here. :D

5 Vegas Series 'A' Archetype
AF 8-5-8 Maduro
Gurkha Doble Maduro Toro

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Padron 3000 maduro
Siglo maduro #2
Partagas super CC
Onyx reserve #4

yep thats my one favorite at the moment.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

No pics from me on this one. But the best cigar I've ever smoked was smoked at about 4,000 feet above sea level somewhere in north Carolina between neel's gap and the trailhead of the AT in Georgia. In the company of my best friend (and best man) and my father. It was cold as hell out and the wind was blowing like crazy. Paired with the soft glow of a campfire and the mix of peach shcnapps and Bacardi 151 I had squirreled away in my pack, that 2001 Boli Belicoso fino was so memorable, it still feels like only yesterday.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Still looking.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

My favorite is the Punch Double Corona. If it ever gets disco'd, I'll :hn

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Tat Frank with two years of age on it. I'll probably never be able to get another one, but it was two hours of pure bliss and I can still taste it like it was yesterday.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Anything i can get my cheap grubby hands on

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Just abvout anything Bolivar

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

And now to add to the latter list: 07 PLPC :dr

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

There are two that stand out for me:

LA Cien Anos
Fuente Hemingway maduro

The Fuente had plume, little sparkling crystals all over. Outstanding.
The Cien Anos was well aged and was a near perfect smoke for the day.

Bought a box of each. Luckily they were not in the same year, so I could
afford a box of both. They have been aging for 2+ years now.

Only smoke them on special occasions.

Chemyst :cool2:

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

noob here so flavor profile fluctuates.. however so far the Berger & Argenti Entubar Quad Maduro is always a hit!

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

How's this, I even took a picture before..... This is the actual "My favorite Cigar of all time." This was the BCS Championship game between Auburn and Oregon in 2011 I believe. I was going to enjoy a drink and cigar before heading over to a friends to watch the game.

I have had a few HUp Mag 48's since, but none has blown me away like that first. I remember distinctly my mouth watering and thinking, my GOD this is cigar nirvana.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Padron 1964 Maddie

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

I've smoked a lot of cigars, but three really stuck out the most:

1) Tat SW Reserva Maduro Smoked my first at Epic 2010 amazing smoke!

2) Johhny O Lonsdale Natural (I damn near had an orgasm it was so good!)
I ended up sending my girl at the time an Xrated text message (in the midst
of my euphoria) that was read by her aunt and cousin who were snooping
around on her phone while she was in the shower! Damn text got me in trouble!
It was creamy, rich, and buttery!

3) Padron 80th Maddy! Smoked one on my 34th Birthday! Amazing smoke!:tu

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Here's my noob review:

Excellent burn, the "wick" at the end is pure ligero which runs through the whole stick, produces tons of smoke, very creamy and rich flavors, spice reminds me of pumpkin pie aftertaste, slight flavor of wet chocolate/mocca cake which changes around.. switches to hay/barnyard/grass/roasted nuts

The draw is superb due to the entubar rolling method vs bunching.. What sucks is they're expensive. :(

or

2009 QDO Corona

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a1...one/qdo2-1.png

not sure if you can tell i like them both

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

My current favorite would probably have to be a Cohiba Lancero followed by a Tatuaje Reserva J21... I'm always looking for a new favorite though.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

As of today, my new favorite is the Illusione CG:4. I enjoyed every single second of smoking it. I normally put down my sticks when the smoke starts to get too warm...I smoked this thing to about 5cm of wrapper left. It was unfairly good!

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

I...love you.

:r

I always say that my desert island smoke would be the PLPC, but either of these would not be unwelcome.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

I think you made a good move on those QdOs, Ron. :tu

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

I'm a noob, but so far, this:

Or on the traditional side, this:

http://www.lolzilla.net/images/8591371.jpg

Then again, I smoked my ~30th cigar last night and I still can't really differentiate flavors very well haha I base mainly off of burn, draw, and flavor harshness. The Java was oily and tasted like chocolate :)

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

El Centurion by DPG. My husband still has a box and they are smoking incredibly now.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

okay

#1 of ALL TIME
Cohiba Siglo VI Gran Reserva

#2
Partagas Serie D No. 4

#3
Padron Family Reserve maduro No.45

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

BTW I love these, I smoke a ton when I go to Vegas, it's the only place I've found them in a B&M

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Luck to have that box Jen, I smoked quite a few of these and loved every one.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

This is a difficult question to answer so im going to split it into multiples.

Fave "go to" would be between the Bolivar Royal Corona i must have 45+ unopened boxs and well over 100 singles of these and the H.Upmann Connie No1 with 20+ unopened boxs and half a opened box left from last monday.

Fave cuban of all time would be Diplomatico No4 as ive smoked more of them than any other and was gutted when they scrapped them.

Fave goto NC would be anything by brickhouse or oliva or AF all 3 are stella in my books

Fave NC of all time would be AF opus X lost city double robusto as i love everything about it.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

45 unopened! Wow. That's a serious collection (I imagine that is just a little part of your stash).

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Oh i fell in love with the bolie RC years ago its just everything i like in a cigar with a great size/gauge to go with it and the old pre 74 RCs named the prince Charles are good too but they are almost non existent now and i get the feeling if i dont smoke them soon they will just turn to dust in my hands.

Yes i might be a bolivar slut.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Gin please. :D

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Take your pick

Hendricks,Tanqueray No10,Tanqueray Rangpur,Bombay Sapphire,Plymouth

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

I made my way through several litres of boodles gin in relatively short fashion recently. Decent stuff.

Re: Post your favorite cigar of ALL TIME.
 

Oh common the rangpur makes one hell of a good daquari variation and a pretty good gin mojito too.

2.5oz rangpur
1oz FRESH lime juice
dash of lime bitters
little bit of sugar

Shaken over ice and strained.
