    I'd have a box of Romeo y Julieta Viejo the Robusto or perhaps Belicoso.

    And I would share them with me....being stranded on a desert island is no time for sharing, but maybe for trading with fellow castaways.

    A box of PSD4's and my wife. My wife doesn't smoke cigars so they would be all mine; but I am almost guaranteed sex. (notice how I said almost).

    I would want a box of cohiba sublimes 04 and Martha Stewart. She can make anything from almost nothing. LOL

    Only if he wants a shelter :P. If he wants grilled mahi mahi, with shallots and a nice creamed cocunut sauce, then Martha is your girl ;)

    I think you guys are thinking about this with the wrong head.

    My humidor! (that's a box right... maybe a big box, but still a box :) ) But to be fair I'll pick the 30th Anniversary Cohiba box of 50 from 1996. Only 45 boxes were made and it's one of the 4 100-point rated cigars by Cigar Aficionado.

    "The few humidors of the 30th Anniversary Cohiba left in the world now go for about $30,000. (They originally sold for about $2,000.) Here is my tasting note the last time I smoked one, which was last spring:

    30th Anniversary Cohiba (1996): This is one of the rarest modern cigars ever made. There were only 45 humidors of 50 cigars each made for the 30th anniversary of the Cohiba brand. It's a double robusto, 50 ring by 9 inches. I smoked this in Hong Kong with one of the biggest collectors of the cigars in the world, George Wong. He originally had 10 boxes. This is a blockbuster of a cigar with huge mocha, honey, cedar and tobacco character. It's full bodied and incredibly rich, almost velvety on the palate. It goes on and on. Not for the fainthearted. So powerful. This cigar will age and improve for decades. Problem is that they are all being smoked. 100 points."

    :) As for who I'd like to be with on the island... Well I'd have to go with Jamie Pressley. Food or no food I'm pretty sure I wouldn't care either way.

    I would probally have to say a box of Padron Serie 1926 80 Years, but would have to be a couple of boxs since only 8 come in a box.

    i think they are Cohiba Habanos 1492, Dunhill Cabinetta, & 1973 Davidoff Chateau d'Yquem. All cigars I'll probably never try :).

    I'd take something like the Taboo, because they a decent smoke and there are 50 in a box.

    BTW, this is actually a great question.  I get asked all the time by my customers, "What's your favorite coffee?" and I tell them the better question is, "If you were stranded on an island which coffee would you want?"  I have a few favorite coffees, but don't know that they're the ones I'd want to drink day in and day out.  Not sure if that carries over to cigars, tho'.

    I'm much more of a pedestrian smoker than some of you.

    If you gave me a box of Carrillo Cardinals, I'd e good for a week.

    I would pick a box of Gurkha Beauty Belicoso. They are just sticks and I could make a raft out of them.

    I hope I would have either @Bigshizza's or @jliu's box of cigars.

    This question came up on the vHerf tonight and I still can't make up my mind.
