What's your go-to cigar?

I've always been partial to the La Gloria Cubana Artisanos de Miami Elegante based on a review from 2008. Lately they've seemed a bit too tight, tough to draw. I've had good luck with the Daniel Marshal Red Label Churchills, but I'm open to suggestions. My preference is something I can spend an hour with.

MOW original, DPG Blue, or Vegas Gold, anytime, anywhere. Lot's of favorites but those are no-brainers for me.1

Pretty much any Upmann, AF, DE, or La Gloria are all great go-to sticks. Lately I've been on the Oliva Master Blends 3. It's worth a try. The robusto size is just over an hour.1

Virtually an unanswerable question, for me.
Does "go to" imply affordable enough to smoke every day?
If I had only a few cigars to get me through the next six months and I had to consider cost verses quality, I guess I could name a few.
Lately I'm very fond of:
CAO Brazilia
and
J.D.Howard Reserve
I have always liked:
Avo Classic
Many more,...... but, I hope I never have to chose.

I don't really have a "go-to" cigar right now. I am smoking less lately so when I do, it is something that strikes my fancy at the moment. Open the box and see what catches my eye. In the past it would have been Nording, Bauza, The Griffins, or anything from the Fuentes line. I would always buy those in box quantity.

When I posted this, I was looking for ideas. I'm finding that I need to branch out a bit, so I've started taking advantage of the specials. So far, I haven't been disappointed. One was a bit mild for my taste, but it was still good. I'll keep an eye out for the suggestions. Thanks0

my go-to homework stick is the la herencia cubana core. solid stick and you can get em cheap if you look hard enough. I smoked a little more than a box worth of them last semester0
-
but as a go-to stick that I know will be amazing, and enjoy when doing nothing in my free time is the padron maduro (doesn't matter the year, but I love the 1926's, although they are expensive) or the Arturo fuente hemingway maduro.

and sorry to triple post, but if you're looking to broaden your horizons, check out some samplers. a sampler I started with was the delicious dozen sampler, which has 2 cores in it, plus some other solid smokes like the decade, cohiba red dot, and ave maria. you can pick this up for dirt cheap on cbid

The caution with samplers is to not over-buy. For the first several months I was buying samplers looking for what I liked, and now that I have a better feel for what to buy, there are cigars getting lonely in my humidors because they're just so-so sticks. It seems vendors make up their samplers and sneak some dogs in with the ones you really want.
My go-to's have been just about anything from My Father/Pepin Garcia, Aroma de Cuba/Ashton, Gloria de Cubana/ EP Carillo, most Perdomos, and most Alec Bradleys. There's a bunch of other stuff I've been loving, but the list would go on and on.
