Just One Cigar
 
If you could only smoke one cigar for the rest of your life, what would you choose and why?
I think for me, I'd have to say the 601 Black, I love everything about this cigar and could smoke it morning, noon or night.

I'm glad someone else thinks the 601 black labels are as tasty as I do!

but as far as picking one cigar for all time?

jeez... I really can't think of one. I mean, I love a good steak, but it would get old pretty quick if that's the only thing I had to eat for every meal. :(

I typed something similar earlier but didn't hit "submit". I don't know if I would smoke a fraction of what I smoke now if this were the case.

I would choose the Gurkha black dragon because it would make me quit smokin.

I know it's a rather silly question in reality. Truth is, what I was smoking last year at this time isn't what I'm smoking now and the same will likely be true this time next year. But a fun question nonetheless. Plus I'm discovering some new cigars this way.

This changes all the time for me, but right now I'm really liking the AJF Diesel. I could stay with these a long time.

This was almost my response. There's no reason to post my current favorite, since my tastes are constantly changing.

I smoked a MC #4 the other night and I couldn't believe they used to be my go-to cigar. Don't get me wrong, it was great. but sooo rich, like a chocolate covered ice cream sunday. good for an occasional treat, but I would get absolutely sick of them within a week if I tried to smoke them daily now.

I have to agree with others in this thread that it doesnt matter how good a certain cigar is, I would get bored with it relatively quickly

Re: Just One Cigar
 
Sorry, I don't see the point?

I smoke a variety of cigars, for different occasions/foods/drinks/moods lead to different tastes.

And what I like today, I may not like 5 years from now.

I don't even have only one favorite.

So are you guys saying that you don't believe in hypothetical questions?

The Original Master Blend!

Because I think it's a damn good cigar!

Noomis 01-26-2010 12:15 AM

Re: Just One Cigar
 
Davidoff Château D'Yquem. Not that I've ever had one. But since we're speaking hypothetically here....

Realistically, though, it might have to be a well-aged Partagas 8-9-8.

Re: Just One Cigar
 
Hmmmmm, not sure what I would do here. I guess I might go with a cigar that I KNOW I like every time, like a AF Hemingway Classic. Or, maybe a WOAM. Or a Tatuaje Unicos.

Or, perhaps I would go with a stick that, when in a new humidor at a B&M, I reach for because I enjoy them so much, like a VSG. Or, maybe that stick that I reach for because I can't get it just everywhere, like a Davidoff Millineum Blend . . .

Can't do it. Can't choose just one.

Davidoff 3000 because it's the best cigar I've had to date. I curse landhoney (Seth) on a regular basis for gifting it to me. :D

I don't even have only one favorite.

:tpd: But, the one cigar that has never failed to please, no matter what, is Don Diego; they're creamy, smooth and as I'm also a cigarette smoker, I can inhale them, which opens up a whole range of pallet notes. I'm dying to try their Privada No.2 maddies! I assume that I can smoke different vitloas? :ss

My favorite changes all the time; right now I am liking the AF Hemingways and Padrons. If I had to pick one it would be the Padron Family Reserve 45th Maduro.

AF Hemingway Signature. If it's the only one ever again, I've got to go with the one I've found to be most consistent.

Playing along with the hypothetical, this would be my choice as well.

RazzBarlow 01-26-2010 02:02 PM

Re: Just One Cigar
 
In this perfect hypothetical world, I would have to choose Padron Anniversary 1964 Maduro Torpedo. It's a nice smooth smoke with a lot of flavor for me.

But, I've recently been introduced to CC's for the first time in my life (Thanks S.H.I.T. heads). They're a different animal entirely! So, if you were to ask me this question again in a month or two, I might have a different answer.

Party Shorts, with about a year and a half/two years' age. (I.e. out of the sick period and back to normal).

Not only do I not get tired of them, when I finish one I have to fight myself not to start up another! :D

Re: Just One Cigar
 
Padron 44th

Chemyst 01-26-2010 07:41 PM

Re: Just One Cigar
 
I'd go with AF Hemi Signature maduro.
Very consistent and tasty cigar.

A close second is PAM and,
third either Ashton VSG or San Cristobal.

subject to change, of course.

BBF...but I'd have to have enough of them that they could be aged in rotation so I'm never without one that doesn't have a least a year or more on it...

said the same thing a million times before, and it ain't sexy or expensive or impossible to find:

Rocky Patel Sungrown PC - usually smokes these in the factory select bundles, and to me, its what I think of when I want a flat out F*cking CIGAR...this blend tastes like what a cigar should taste like IMO, and the construction/draw has been perfect on every one.
