People, smoke what you like and experiment and do that rather than creating some list that will change with the next cigar that you smoke. A list of the top 5 would make sense but a top 30?

me thinks that someone has only smoked 30 different cigars.

I couldn't narrow my top 40. So I will wait for the top 40 list.

These days I probably don't even smoke 30 different cigars regularly.

When I was a noob sure, I tried everything. guess I'm a creature of habit but I always buy the same sh*t now.

I'm not against the idea of a top 30, I probably pass over a lot of good smokes because I assume most of them are not worth trying. I trust the opinions of the members of this board though.

I've gotten a lot of stuff in trades that made me think

but turned out to be fantastic smokes.

Perdomo slow aged? hell yeah!

Tampa Sweethearts? bring 'em on!

La Aroma de Cuba? F*ckin' delicious!

...I could go on and on

somebody had to do it.

Actually I rate all the cigars I smoke, A, 1, 2, 3, 4. The A's I will buy at a good price or when they run out. The 1's I'll grab whenever they are on sale. The 2 - 4 I pretty much stay away from purchasing unless I try one and my taste changes.

I like using lists since my old brain fails from time to time...

It is all a part of the hobby. As been said before, do what makes you happy.

Make sure to try the PAM64 in the Exclusivo size. Prolly my favorite cigar. It's like smoking a Snicker's bar

B&Ms get pricey with these. Usually around $14-$15.

You're better off to go with Rob from Taboo and get a 5er:

http://www.taboocigars.com/product.s...productId=1091

make sure you use one of his CA coupons:

http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/showthread.php?t=13891

Brings the cost down significantly.

I buy all my Padron through Rob, can't beat the prices
