I think I misunderstood the tasker. I interpreted the question to be: "What are, in your opinion, the five best newly released NC cigar blends of 2011 -- (also perhaps eligible, new size of an older blend)?" Or something like that.
Or is it five best cigars that you smoked in 2011 regardless of origin or release date?
Or something altogether different?
I just answered it the way I wanted to. You're probably right.
