I would have to say the black label Tatuaje. The cigar has a great taste fresh and no metallic taste at the finish that I get with a lot of NC's, just wish they were easier to find and cheaper. :ss

Last night I had a AF Hemingway signature and then had a Joya De Nicaragua Serie "C" corona gorda. Both were truly outstanding...at least to my limited palate. A couple of beverages may have influenced my opinion on the Serie c though....Hey does that mean I'll have to try another one...LOL

Smoked the Illusion Cruzado yesterday and what a great cigar. Before that I had an Arganese ML3 robusto last week and that really surprised me.

As far as cubans, the last one was '98 Fonseca Cosacos - great cigar for $2! :ss

Serie V Maduro. Not just because my affiliation with Oliva, but I REALLY enjoy this stick.

With my limited experience... Indain Tabac Super Fuerte Maduro was quite the eye opener.

It was a San Cristobal that was given to me at my first Herf. It was about the third cigar of the night and it was fantastico! I was so impressed that I wish I had about two or three more in my coolador that I could smoke on a special occasion. That cigar Wowed me! :ss

Last one that really made me say "Holy Sh*t that was phenomenal!" Was an Opus X Robusto with at least 3 years of age on it. Before this one I disliked every Opus I had tried but just came to the realization that I didn't hate them, I just hated them fresh.:D

I have 5 boxes of these now and haven't had one yet. I heard they need time to rest. I may have to break one out just to have something to compare it to later on!

Re: What was the last cigar that WOWED you?
 
I had a '98 Partagas Tres Petit Corona on Saturday that totally blew me away! I think it was better than the 898v's from the same year.

This morning, a '07 El Rey Del Mundo Choix Supreme from a cab. Unreal cigar.

‘02 MC2. It was balanced, had all of the hallmark MC flavors and was a real pleasure to smoke. I lasted well over an hour and I nubbed the heck out of it. I just didn’t want it to end. These can be hit or miss, but this experience is why the MC2 is one of my favorite cigars.

01 Montecristo Especial, everything about this cigar wow's me when I smoke one, it's my favorite Montecristo, hands down.

Last night I smoked an H. Upmann Naturals from the 70s. Every time I have had one of these, it has been a "wow". :ss

ROMEO Y JULIETA ESCUDOS LIMITED EDITION 2007

I have never been a huge RyJ fan before reaching for this last night.

It was sitting by itself and was a gift, I took it out to the jacuzzi on a brisk night and smoked it and was like, "wow".

'00 Trinidad Fundadores. Awesome, creamy, caramel flavors. Tight draw, but otherwise world class smoke.
