Okay, lovers of the LEAF, step right up...

...and tell us all your favorite or the most enjoyable smoke in the categories of (minimum ring size 43):

1. Mild Smoke

2. Medium Smoke

3. Full Smoke

:

Porch Dweller · 02-09-2014, 09:36 AM

Mild's an easy pick for me, Carlos Torano Reserva Selecta Robusto.

The other two are tough because they change often. Today I'd say Herrera Esteli Short Corona and Liga Privada T52 Robusto. Ask again six months from now and the answer will probably be different.

Sadden · 02-09-2014, 10:09 AM

1) Mi Dominicana Lancero

2) Padron Thousand Series Lancero (natural)

3) Cain F Lancero

That was easy

kelmac07 · 02-09-2014, 11:38 AM

This week...

1. Mild Smoke: El Rey De Mundo Maduro Robusto Grande
2. Medium Smoke: 601 Blue Maduro
3. Full Smoke: DPG Series JJ Maduro Belicoso

timj219 · 02-09-2014, 12:06 PM

Mild - Cabaiguan corona extra
Med - Oliva O
Full - Kristoff GC Signature

At least some of these will be different if you ask again in a few months

RobR1205 · 02-09-2014, 02:52 PM

I like this question! Going through my big book of cigar bands and reviews, here's what my current list is:

Medium: Padron 2000 Maduro, Tatuaje Havana VI Robusto, Tatuaje "The Mummy"
Full: La Aurora Preferidos Maduro, JdN Antaño Robusto, Arturo Fuente Don Carlos No. 4

Cubans:
Mild: Quai Dorsi Coronas
Medium: Cohiba Panatela
Full: Montecristo No. 2

I'm in the same boat, brother. Also, I just realized what your user name was and couldn't help but think of, "We're going streaking!"

VirtualSmitty · 02-10-2014, 07:29 AM

Why is the word leaf in capital letters in the thread title? What else would we be lovers of in a cigar discussion forum?

And I have nothing to add, all my favorites are around 40 RG. I don't get whats so appealing about big RG cigars these days, it makes me wonder at times.

tsolomon · 02-10-2014, 08:19 AM

I don't know if I even think about mild, medium and full anymore. My tendency now is to go with what I fell like smoking at the time.

dvickery · 02-10-2014, 09:55 AM

notice a common theme in the answers ??? non of the old guys smoke " (minimum ring size 43) " .

43rg or larger eliminates 95% of my stash ... of the remaining 5% havent opened up any for (at least ) 10 years or so .
