I have been trying different sticks left and right lately. Got off work and really wanted a Man o' War. Fired one up as soon as i walked in the door. Every time i blaze a MoW, I love them. SO i wanted to see what everyone else loves. Keep it simple. If you could only have one type of cigar... what would it be and why?

    my favorite cigar changes on a week to week/even day to day basis. currently i would have to say my favorite would be the Don Pepin Blue label. just a perfect combination of pepper, complexity, and balance... overwhelmingly smoothe...

    It's a hard question to answer because for me, one of the most enjoyable aspects of this hobby is that there are so many different ones to try. I don't remember the last time I had the same cigar two days in a row because I'm always reaching for something new. Also, my favorite cigar really depends on the day and what mood I'm feeling. I don't think I can have a cigar that I want to smoke everyday. A "go-to" cigar that I wouldn't mind having a couple of times a week is the Diesel. I'm sure there are other ones.

    As far as a Conn goes im all about the Rocky 99 Vintage...nothing beats it for me....and Maduro im all about the CAO Brazilia...its amazing.. But MoW is my second favorite...I have a few of them, along with a lighter and cutter lol...

    My favorite mild? MoW Virtue or RP Summer Collection 2008. My favorite full body is MoW Ruination

    My favorite cigar has been the La Flor Dominicana Cameroon Cabinet #1, fantastic flavor with great balance and just a solid performer. Of course something could usurp that #1 spot, but for now the CC occupies it.

    Oh and the Diesel has rocked my world numerous times over...awesome stick...cant wait to try the new one coming out

    Not one cigar sticks out for me as my #1. I probably have like a top 20 all tied for 1st place. Although there are many high end sticks Ive never had Like Padron Annys and such. Maybe somthing like that could change my mind.

    MOW is up there for me too...... But I'd have to go with GOF Carlito for my favorite, so far. It's not an everyday, but if money were no object, and I could only have one cigar, it would be the GOF. If it came down to price and what I could smoke on a regular basis, it would be the AF Sun Grown Rothschild.......

    Believe it or not...Saint Luis Rey. Smooth with just the right spice and lots of sentimental attachment.

    Can't pick just one. Right now I'm loving illusione 2, ruination, and lfd double ligero chisel

    Gurkha Centurian... Love the balance and the flavor.

    My Fave too, 2nd choice would be LHC Oscuro Fuerete
  • fla-gypsyfla-gypsy Posts: 3,023 ✭✭
    I find it impossible to pick one best cigar as it changes frequently. Ruination makes it to top 3 status regular.
  • phobicsquirrelphobicsquirrel Posts: 7,347 ✭✭✭
    This a toughie... I'd say lfd dl chisel maduro.
    Though putting one cigar above all else is impossible for me. I'd say I have a group of them that would be my favorite though the chisel maddy is one that stands out.

    Legal: Padron 3000
    Illegal: PSD4

    I do like the Padron anniversary's better, although they're $10+/stick so I exclude them.
  • Russ55Russ55 Posts: 2,765 ✭✭
    Right now it's the Graycliff Double Espresso. The aroma, the subtleties, the size and shape of the vitola, I love this stick.
  • docbp87docbp87 Posts: 3,521 ✭
    GOF Don Carlos, Padron 1964 Anni, AB Tempus, Tat Verocru, MF LB1922, Padilla Dominus... Plenty more.
  • thedjfish@comcast.netthedjfish@comcast.net Posts: 1,692 ✭✭✭
    CAO Brazilia is my no# 1 smoke
    NUB Habano is my 2nd choice

    If you get a good stick they are damn tasty. Im 1/2 on these and Ive heard a few folks here mention quality issues with the tricky figurado.

    Welp. My list (like others that have posted) is far too long to pick just one. A few of my "go to" cigars: Tatuaje Havana VI Angeles, LFD Chisel Maduro, Padron 1964 Maduro. Perhaps my most memorable super-premium smoke would be either a Camacho PE or Feunte OpusX.

    I didn't know they made that in the Cameroon. I've had a few of the Natural Oscuro Cabinet (is that the order of the words, lol) and love them! Man, my list is always growing thanks to you, Joe!

    well like a lot of the guys on here theres more than 1 favorite but ill keep it short: favorite milds are the verdadero organic and the perdomo 10th anny champagne, favorite fulls are the RP Vintage 1990 torp, JdN Antano Machito, CAO Brazilia Gol! and Diesel... by far the best smokes I've had... of course there are so many others... Cusano 18 PM, MoW obviously, soo many others.. I love trying new cigars so I'm sure the list will continue to grow but as of right now these are my favs
  • ThinBluLine06ThinBluLine06 Posts: 283
    MoW, La Herencia Cubana Oscuro Fuerte, Perdomo Reserve 10th Anniversary Maduro
  • mrpillowmrpillow Posts: 464
    Torano Signature, hands down.
  • kuzi16kuzi16 Posts: 14,633 ✭✭✭✭
    cant pick a favorite. i like too many different things. different days, different occasions, different cigars.

    Right now I've been gravitating to full bodied cigars so the original MOW is at the top of my list. I have a ruination resting that may take it's spot.

    Close runner-ups are DPG:CC, Gurkha Sign. 101 Maduro (Only had one but it wowed me. Have another resting to confirm) and 5 Vegas Classic.

    Like most of the other folks here my tastes run back and forth and I like a variety of flavors, so it's easy to nail down what my favorite is now, but picking "one and only one" would be a much tougher endeavor.

    Can't pick.
  • rossdavey2rossdavey2 Posts: 979
    Right now I'm super happy with my Aroma de cuba churchills that have about 2 months on them. a little time really help even these out. Can't wait to see how they do with longer on there.

    Carlos Torano Signature and the Sol Cubano Cuban Cabinet.
