San Cristobal

I just finished my first one while standing outside in the freezing cold of the Ohio tundra and I couldn't put it down. A beautiful cigar, from the band to the smoke. Although I won't be buying a box of these until after the holidays, it will give me something to really look forward to.


Nice job Ashton! You have a real winner with this stick!

Oliva Special S, every time that I treat myself to one of these, I wish that I could hit the lottery and buy out the remaining stock of all sizes.:ss

2)1 year old Fuente Work of Art Maduro - man, this is a good one!! Can't wait to buy some more this year.

A couple of weeks ago I had my first Cabaiguan Guapo 46. Since then I've smoked about 4 or 5 of them. Just love that smooth spice; I think I'll have another one tomorrow.

I was pleasantly keelhauled by a Taboo Dominican maduro robusto.
Got tastier and more complex with each puff. Wish it was made in a toro or torpedo.

NC was a Padilla Sig 1932 corona gorda a week or two ago. CC was a 05 Rafael Gonzalez lonsdale.

Re: What was the last cigar that WOWED you?
 
Travelling a couple weeks ago toward the western part of NC, I screwed up by not bringing sticks with me. I was well past JR's on I40 ...so, I stopped off at a BP Station, got a cup of coffee (first mistake) that poured like warm tar. The second mistake was asking for a white owl cigar. After a littany of flavors that the clerk rattled off....I said I just want a reguar cigar! She gave me an unflavored stick. As I headed westbound, again, I lit up and knew IMMEDIATELY what an idiot I was!

Therefore, I have to say, WOW, what the hell was I thinking??? :fl

Thought I'd revive this thread.

Most recent cigar that "wow"ed me was a Taboo Toro Twist from 3/2008. I had it yesterday afternoon while golfing. I like how these have aged. Wish I had a few more of them

My WOW cigars always happen in the fall, with a warm sun and cool air:

AF Hemi Signature maduro (w/ plume)
LA Cien Anos
Oliva V maduro

Last fall nothing happened. Looking forward to this coming fall. Too hot, atm.

good to know, I got a couple I just got in the humi. I'm gonna have one on the 22nd and then wait a year or so.

I had a 5 Vegas Series 'A' that wowed me and lead to my 1st box buy

When I first bought a box of these I was quite underwhelmed. After sitting for a while, I revisited them recently and was very impressed!

'04 PLPC. The first half was outstanding (second half was ok but that was probably due to the wrapper exploding)

NC- I would say the Oliva Masters Blend 3 from my friend Jenksanejo. That was an amazing cigar. I don't nub many but that one I sure did.

CC - The RyJ 2005 Churchill I smoked a month ago. Pulled it out not expecting too much and it blew me away.

bobarian 07-03-2012 10:45 PM

Re: What was the last cigar that WOWED you?
 
Too many to remember at SoCal. A few memorable ones would be the PL DemiCorona, Punch Nectares #2, RyJ Clem, 1492 and a couple of different Dunhill selections. :tu

Re: What was the last cigar that WOWED you?
 
Obsidian robusto.....I had low (no) expectations for this cigar and I'm seeing areas of my humidor I have not saw for a while and I took a chance, I was very impressed.

Davidoff Gran Cru #2...expensive little SOB, and I was quite hesitant about spending the coin on it at first...but what a smoke! I nubbed that thing until I couldn't hold it anymore!
