Best,WORST and your old goto.
 
Simple little thread post your best WORST and your goto smokes of the year so far.

Best - Cuban H.Upmann connie 1 i love these things but this one was glorious.

WORST - Yet another guantanamera crystal my friend insists on bringing back from cuba so much for giving him a list of the ones i like.

Goto - Between connie 1s and AF Hemingway short storys atm.
