What happened to the Top 25 Keith?

stearns · 12-17-2013, 08:23 AM

I've talked with people who are supposedly "in the know" who swear that the vigerous blind tasting process still happens as far as ranking them goes. not gonna go down that road, but there is one question with these rankings that I don't get...

if they're the top cigars of 2013, why are cigars that came out many years ago on the list?

They say it's the top cigars of the year, not the top new cigars of the year, Ben.

I've never put much stock In these rankings but they are entertaining to read. Everyones top 25 will be different.

Dem Gurkhas iz good

replicant_argent · 12-17-2013, 02:23 PM

I shall reiterate. Why bother? It's like a high school girl popularity contest with a little "who's a bigger whore" thrown in.

8zeros · 12-17-2013, 02:32 PM

Of this list I have tried #4 & #6 and thought they were good.
#3 sounds interesting.
I don't give much importance to the magazine peoples opinion though.
Opinions are like...well, you know.

Tom loves his Gurkha specialness. I do believe he is still reserving the one (or several) I sent him years ago for a very "special" occasion.
