Last week, I celebrated my one year anniversary of getting into cigars as a hobby. In that time, according to my excel spreadsheet I use to keep track of inventory, I've smoked 130 cigars. I've enjoyed most of them and have only regretted lighting up a couple (the biggest mistake was a god awful Perdomo Reserve 10th Anniversary Champagne). I've had several cigars that blew my mind like the RP Decade, Oliva Serie V, and Padilla 1932, and one that while I enjoyed it very much, the Man O War Ruination No.2 almost made me blow my dinner. I currently have 202 cigars with varying amounts of age on them and look forward to many years ahead of me enjoying and expanding on my collection.

    First off congrats on the 1 year anny of the hobby! Second, I am really surprised that the Perdomo Champagne was a bad experience, I love those sticks! But it sounds like you enjoy full bodied sticks, while the champagne is pretty mild

    The 1932 is one of my all time favorties. I really enjoyed it. Ironically, the only one I haven't tried that you listed was the Perdomo. The rest of them I really enjoy also.

    if you like the 1932 you should try the 68.

    I'll have to give it a try. I've tried several of the Padilla fuller cigars and liked them all. It's possible there might be one in a Padilla sampler that just may be coming for Father's Day. I'll have to wait and see.

    The 32 & 68 were good, but were a little dry in my opinion. Liked em, didnt love em.

    Congratulations on the anniversary! And I agree with you on the 10th Anniversary Champagne. I didn't care for it either.
