Default Morning Cigars

Looking for 5 good cigars to smoke in the morning. I usually smoke medium to full, but just a little overpowering first thing in the a.m. Any suggestions would be great.

I'll be having an Avo Classic No. 3 for breakfast this morning when I get up to work.

Pop on over to the New Members Area and introduce yourself when you get a chance.

I unfortunately don't get to enjoy a stick in the morning due to work, but when I can get up before the kids and sit with a nice cup of espresso I usually end up with either a NUB Connecticut or a Montecristo White.

I regularly smoke the Nub Habanos, but will definitely try the Connecticut. I'll also try out the other suggestions. The more sticks the better

The only time I prefer NC cigars is with my morning coffee. Like Perdomo Champagne. This morning, I'm smoking an Oliva Connecticut.

Oliva O Perfecto, this with an espresso or two makes for a great morning. They're not to strong, but they stand up to coffee. I find the size to be just enough, but not too much.

I'm one of the few partial to sweet tip smokes, especially in the morning. Baccarat and Diamondback are my go to, but I have a bundle of Flor de Oliva on the way that I have high hopes for. If not sweetened, then 5 Vegas Gold is one that would come to mind as being a nice creamy compliment to coffee.

Let me start by stating that I love me a morning cigar with my coffee. For me the issue isn't strength as much as size, too big in the morning and it's just too much. A short robusto, or knuckle is just right regardless of type.

There is no such thing, imo. Your palate is freshest at the start of the day, so why not smoke your favorite cigar and get the fullest flavor possible from it.

I was going to actually say, "My Buddy, Darren, swears by Macs as a great morning Cigar with Coffee." There goes that lol.
