I actually plan on breaking this out for a PPP this weekend.

I really can't say what favorite cigar of all time is, but one cigar that stood out for me was a Monte Maravilla (something I also plan on smoking this weekend)

ALL TIME-70/80's Por Larranaga Dunhill #33. Smoked at SoCal two years ago, shared with some very good friends.

1994 smoked last year on my birthday would be a close second. But the cigars smoked when with good friends always seem to smoke better.

I had the pleasure of trying one of these as well in Rochester two weeks ago, I think it was the most unique cigar I have tried. I think it may be my favorite, but I tried so many at that herf that blew my mind I can't pick.

I've smoked five dollar cigars and even a five hundred dollar cigar and honestly, no one cigar has ever stood out.

No pics from me on this one. But the best cigar I've ever smoked was smoked at about 4,000 feet above sea level somewhere in north Carolina between neel's gap and the trailhead of the AT in Georgia. In the company of my best friend (and best man) and my father. It was cold as hell out and the wind was blowing like crazy. Paired with the soft glow of a campfire and the mix of peach shcnapps and Bacardi 151 I had squirreled away in my pack, that 2001 Boli Belicoso fino was so memorable, it still feels like only yesterday.

Tat Frank with two years of age on it. I'll probably never be able to get another one, but it was two hours of pure bliss and I can still taste it like it was yesterday.

There are two that stand out for me:

LA Cien Anos
Fuente Hemingway maduro

The Fuente had plume, little sparkling crystals all over. Outstanding.
The Cien Anos was well aged and was a near perfect smoke for the day.

Bought a box of each. Luckily they were not in the same year, so I could
afford a box of both. They have been aging for 2+ years now.

Only smoke them on special occasions.

How's this, I even took a picture before..... This is the actual "My favorite Cigar of all time." This was the BCS Championship game between Auburn and Oregon in 2011 I believe. I was going to enjoy a drink and cigar before heading over to a friends to watch the game.

I have had a few HUp Mag 48's since, but none has blown me away like that first. I remember distinctly my mouth watering and thinking, my GOD this is cigar nirvana.




I am REALLY digging fresh BRC's right now....

Here's my noob review:

Excellent burn, the "wick" at the end is pure ligero which runs through the whole stick, produces tons of smoke, very creamy and rich flavors, spice reminds me of pumpkin pie aftertaste, slight flavor of wet chocolate/mocca cake which changes around.. switches to hay/barnyard/grass/roasted nuts

The draw is superb due to the entubar rolling method vs bunching.. What sucks is they're expensive.
