I think I misunderstood the tasker. I interpreted the question to be: "What are, in your opinion, the five best newly released NC cigar blends of 2011 -- (also perhaps eligible, new size of an older blend)?" Or something like that.

Or is it five best cigars that you smoked in 2011 regardless of origin or release date?

Or something altogether different?

In no particular order:

--Crowned Heads Four Kicks Robusto
--Tatuaje Wolfman
--Curivari Seleccion Privada Royales
--Avo LE 2011
--601 La Bomba Napalm

I just answered it the way I wanted to. You're probably right.

I guess I didn't really phrase it very well. But above is what I was going for. But seeing all the other lists is just as good. Makes me see stuff that I need to try.

In no particular order, my top five NC 2011 releases (with favored size, if more than one):

EPC New Wave (rob)
Tat Fausto (toro)
Undercrown (toro)
Oliva V No. 4
Padilla Artemis (toro)
hon. men: AB Tempus Maduro (magistri - far and above other sizes)

Disclaimer: while looking over a list of 2011 releases, it occcurred to me that there are probably 100 others I'd like to try that I haven't even had yet

That is how I responded....assuming NC means "New Cubans".
