What cigar recently surprised you?

Graycliff Château Grand Cru.

I purchased a box many years ago, smoked just one and never touched it again until this morning when I randomly pulled a Graycliff from my humidor. I quickly put the cigar back remembering how disappointed I was when I first tried it. For some reason, I picked the cigar up again, lit it, took a few puffs and then told my husband to try it, this time with a huge grin on my face. It wasn't like the first one I tried. The second one was a hundred thousand times better.

I never thought it would make a great tasting cigar after just a few years in my humidor. I definitely would like another one later this evening.

Punch (NC) Gran Puro. I didn't know what to expect from a Honduran puro, but this really impressed me. It had a deep core flavor of soil/earth that I loved. Draw was unfortunately tight though. I've got a couple singles in the mail to do more testing.
