Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

But how was her presentation, taste and burn?

Has anyone posted a review on this yet? I'll have to go back and double check.

I haven't bought a CA mag for a long time though I did enjoy looking through them and they usually had a good interview with someone. It was also a good starting point for the learning process. Just from what I remember I wouldn't disagree with everything they put at the top of the reviews and they are usually premiums and top CC's. So I'll be interested in seeing what they put up this year.

I guess there are also reasons why I no long subscribe to them, too. ;)

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

They announced 10-6 today:

#10 - Ashton Heritage Puro Sol Robusto
#9 - La Gloria Cubana Artesanas de Miami Elegante
#8 - Don Pepin Garcia Lancero
#7 - H. Upmann Sir Winston
#6 - Romeo y Julieta Short Churchill

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

#5 - 2 announced 01/08/09
#1 announced 01/09/09
#25 - 11 announced 01/12/09

I am not sure they would announce them in this order. :confused:

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

That is dumb. Why not just reveal from 25 to 1.

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

:tpd:

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

there keeping it suspensful.... i wonder what it will be

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

I'm so excited I can't even sleep!

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

#6, 7 and 8 are all good smokes, IMHO

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

That still doesn't explain why 25-11 are revealed after #1. :confused:

I like all the cigars so far. #5-2 revealed later today.

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

yawn

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

I really can't think of a good reason to announce things out of order like that. But then again I'm not losing sleep over it anyway...Or maybe I am, I did wake up 3 hours early today.

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

Im hopin for something from DGP or Padron, I feel they deserve it cause everything they put out is high quality

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

I don't agree with #6. I have a box and had one this past weekend. Meh. I've certainly had much better cigars this year.
RA Eminencia, RYJ Escudo.

Are they allowed to consider LE or RE's for top 25?

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

#5=Don Carlos Edicion de Aniversario Double Robusto =$32
#4=La Aroma de Cuba Edicion Especial No. 5=$7.8
#3=Litto Gomez Diez 2008 Chisel Puro=$11
#2=Padron Serie 1926 80 Years Maduro=$30

No surprises here. Fuente and Padron are HUGE advertisers with CA and Litto went on tour with CA/CRA this summer.

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

w00t! My pick came in at #4!!!

Now, if I could just pick sports teams or horse races as effectively.

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

I just bought a box of Padron 80th (Natural though).

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

Also, there is no way they couldn't tell what the Chisel was, even unbanded. Same goes for the Padron 80th. Both have distinctive looks IMO. I'm not saying they aren't good smokes, but this just seems off.

Re: Cigar 25 CountDown
 

I say make 'em smoke in the dark! :c

This thing is rigged, but there are some good cigars on that list...
