Default Cigar 25 CountDown

Cigar Aficionado has started their countdown for this year top 25. My question is what cigar do you think will be the No.1 cigar of the year.

I've stopped following CA's top cigars since I don't put much value in their review method, but I guess it'll be interesting to see how it turns out.

Its probably going to be a Dominican Cohiba because everyone knows they are cream of the crop.

I agree and I also look forward to the poster they put out every year with all those ratings on it . Kind of nice to see what I haven't had on there .

Ever since Bruce Willis' daughter was voted as one of the most beautiful women in the world last year by some magazine I have become suspicious of this ranking!

But, mmm, when was the AB Tempus ranked 95

But how was her presentation, taste and burn?

Has anyone posted a review on this yet? I'll have to go back and double check.

I haven't bought a CA mag for a long time though I did enjoy looking through them and they usually had a good interview with someone. It was also a good starting point for the learning process. Just from what I remember I wouldn't disagree with everything they put at the top of the reviews and they are usually premiums and top CC's. So I'll be interested in seeing what they put up this year.

I guess there are also reasons why I no long subscribe to them, too.

I don't agree with everything the do there BUT I don't think I have ever disagreed with their rankings of what the top cigars are each year.

Padron 26's, FF Opus X, and others have deserved it.

Just checked the rankings for the first time last night, and boy, that was a great call, Ted! I sampled this stick at an Ashton event in Nashville a few months ago and I'm hooked...this is a fantastic cigar and I couldn't be any happier to see them turn to Mr. Pepin to provide yet another outstanding blend.

Whatever what one thinks of CA and its top 25 list, I still look forward to seeing what cigars are on there.
