Alex Svenson:This is one of those loaded questions LOL. First, I am not sure I can pick three. Even then, I am usually so picky that I cant pick a whole brand but a blend within a line. Not only that, my favorites are always changing. I am breaking the rules a bit but here are my favs at the moment. I am sure you can tell I favor the fuller bodied cigars based on my pics. I am also a bit of an AJ Fernandez ****. My Current Top 10 Of Regular Smokes (smoke a few of each every week) In No Particular Order: MOW Ruination MOW Armado Diesel Unlimited Diesel La Herencia Cubana Oliva Serie V Liga Privada #9 Tatuaje Maimi 5 Vegas Miami San Lotano Habano My Current Special Occassion Smokes Oliva MB I Davidoff Millenium Fuente Don Carlos Edicion de Anniversario Once the Armadas I listed in my daily top 10 above which AJ sent me free for christmas run out I am sure they will be on this list as they are to expensive for an everyday smoke. Stuff that finds its way into my rotation more and more at the moment are Particulares (Tropical Honduran made at Racies Cubanas) AB Tempus Oliveros King Havano Casa Magna MOW Original Ave Maria (small ring sizes only) Cuba Libre One Cu-Avana Intenso La Perla Habana Morado RP 15th Anni RP Sun Grown Liga Privada T52
Alex Svenson:Any reason you don't dig the larger Ave Marias specifically? Not sure, I just find I am drawn to the small ring stuff. I like the larger sizes just fine but really like a small ring. In fact, the factory sends me a package every once in a while of all 5 x 42 cigars and it is a huge mix of MOW Original, Ruination, Armada, Ave Maria, La Herencia, Diesel Unlimited. FYI, the Armada in that little size is TASTY!! That said, I will smoke anything. But if a blend is available in a 4.5 to 6 inch length with a ring between 42 and 46 I will go right for it before any other size.

Funny you ask, I have some coming. They are either 5 x 44 or 5 x 42. I forget which abdel told me he made but he said he was sending a few hundred sometime this spring. Wont be enough to put them online but will be some to sell for the BOTL out there and MOW fans.

xmacro:Any plans to ever offer the normal MOW Armada, toro grande vitola, on a DD or some kinda discount? I'm really just looking for an excuse to buy a box at this point
dennisking:Fuente Opus X, Fuente Anejo, La Gloria Cubana Serie R Maduro (the big ring guage one)

kuzi16:i never realized how many padron fans we had in here. I know people liked them but i never k new how much. iduno why, but for some reason i just cant get into em.
dennisking: kuzi16:i never realized how many padron fans we had in here. I know people liked them but i never k new how much. iduno why, but for some reason i just cant get into em. the 1926 is the only Padron I like. at that price, it keeps me from being a fan. funny thing is, I'm not a Fuente fan, just an opus and anejo fan.
kuzi16: brand "x" may have 1 of 7 blends that i like but brand "y" may have 9 of 10 blends that i like. even if i like that one blend from brand X more than all of the blends from brand Y i will say that i like Brand Y better. My top 3 are LFD, Avo, and JdN. but my favorite blends (from THIS thread) are Davidoff Maduro and OpusX. this is exactly what im talking about. my top 10 blends will be different in about a month. by favorite brands probably wont change for another 6 months to a year.
