Whats your "Go To" smokes?
 
Just wondering what everyones "go to" smokes are. Right now these are the sticks I love that always produce constant results. Lets keep this about NC's only please:

AF 8-5-8 Maduro
AF Hemmingway Signature
AF Anejo
Padron 2000/3000 Maduro
Kristoff Maduro

There are many other sticks that I enjoy but these are the ones that instantly come to mind.

LGC Serie R #4
CAO Brazilia
Tatuaje VI miami nobles (IIRC it's called something like that)
601 Blue Maduro

Cant' remember many others, as I've been on a huge CC kick lately. I don't smoke many mild NC's. Most of the time when I grab an NC, it's because I want something full flavored and full bodied.

Variety is the spice of life, I probably smoke 40-50 cigars a month, and rarely smoke 2 of the same marca and vitola twice.

Re: Whats your "Go To" smokes?
 
Still finding that "go to" smoke, but so far it's these.....in this order.

Kristoff
Romeo J Julieta
Cain Daytona No.4
Montecristo
Cusano 18


Will update as I smoke more.

When I think go to, I think cost effective:

Padron core line maduro. Never been dissatisfied with a single vitola
Famous Nic 3000
Famous Nic 5000
Any Cain if I want it long and strong.

I agree with the go to= cost effective. All but the Anejo on my list I can get for $6.00 or less. Most of the NC's I smoke also tend to be maduro's.

My go-to cigars (so far) are:

601 Blue
Tatuaje Nobles VI
My Father
Fuente 8-5-8
Padron 5000

I have smoked more 601 Blues than any other cigar and I still cannot believe how good they are. :dr:dr

Just my opinion

:tpd:

I don't smoke anything close to Tom's volume, but I don't have any "go to" sticks, either. I'm too busy with too many different things. I certainly have favorites, but I explore enough other things that I manage to space them out. -(P

Re: Whats your "Go To" smokes?
 
Still looking for that every day smoke, but I haven't smoked very much lately.

Once I get a house I know I'll be able to smoke a lot more often. My goal will to be find a yummy stick that will be inexpensive.

I have too much variety right now to have as my go to cigar.

Coach Deg 09-13-2011 05:23 PM

Re: Whats your "Go To" smokes?
 
Have to agree with Tom. I almost never smoke the same cigar( I'll say back to back as I only have about 8 to 10 a month).

But I always have an AF 858 maduro, a rocky sungrown, and a VSG in the travel humidor.

I agree, as long as you like what you are smoking I say enjoy it. Isn't that what this hobby is all about.

Padron 3000 maduro without fail. Others in my regular rotation include partagas black, tatuaje regios, brazilias, cubao (natural and maduro) and padilla 1932s, but I move through boxes of the padrons faster than anything else.

My "go to" is in my favorite daily smoke is the Lot 23. Fantastic balance of quality and price.

Overall, the one I want everytime if price is no object is the Perdomo Champagne, though I think that's about to change once I try a Noir here soon based on the countless people I've talked to who've tried them. Almost everyone I know who has the Champagne as their favorite as well says the Noir takes the spot.

I really like variety but when I want to go for something familiar and comforting I will get out an Anejo or a San Cristobal for sure...
