Default Your most valued/rare cigar is......?

I thought it would be interesting to see what kind of rare valuable cigars some people are holding onto for a rainy day.

Mine would be a FFP and a Tat Black both given to me by Eric,

Watcha hiding in your humi?

Trinidad fundadores. 97 IIRC.

But the last skull n bones mystery, and the current purchase of some daisy cutters rates up there. Along with my last 05 PLPC.

For me I have 3 sticks that I am sitting on for a special occasion. They were all given to me by friends here.

Oliva O (Red cloth band, given to me by Nickyteen)
Ashton ESG (given to me by Mr.B)
God of Fire (given to me by Mr.B)

And with allergy season kicking my a$$ right now I won't be touching any of them soon.

Aside from the Franks, Tenderloins & the B-Rex's I have it probably has to be the few clear havanas I have been gifted!

Some of which are older than me! And that's pretty old if you ask some of the BOTL here!

Most valued cigar? The one I just got done smoking. Because what's a cigar's value if you never enjoy it?

I have one FFP I'm saving from a period of much more adequate funds. I'll be smoking it soon as the wife and I get settled in good here on the mainland.

Most valued? You might not believe it, but it is a Gurkha in a glass tube. Why? It is the onloy cigar my Dad ever bought for me.

Rarest? Probably a Rafael Gonzales Vitola C.

I like that Tom, some cigars transend themselves!

As for me, I do not have many cigars of monatary value yet but my wife bought me a Padron 40th Anni that has much centimental value. Only time she ever bought me a cigar related item. I have been fortunate enough to try several extremely valuable cigars however.

HA same here. My fiancé bought me several Padron Annys and they are just very special to me. I have sold off or given away 98% of my NCs but those are the only ones I've held onto.

For NCs, I'd say that is the collection of Operation Freedom tubos that various units from Iraq and Afghanistan have sent me over the years.

None of my cigars are rare or valued enough to escape me putting fire to them

Mine are probably mostly sentimental value:

First release rolled by Perdomo for Drew Estate - La Vieja Habana (99?)
Drew Estate first release Chateau Real
Drew Estate first release Liga Privada #9
{these were all given to me from Jonathan when I worked for Drew Estate}

La Flor Dominicana Mysterioso
2 Padron Anniversario 1964 (2006) A size - given to me when my son was born
