I tend to like stronger cigars, so I try not to buy any Connies.

The Flor de Oliva Gold has always been one of my standby morning cigars.

I agree normally but do try the 601 Black because it has big flavor and body

It's been awhile, but:

Cu-Avana Maduro
Sancho Panza DM
HdM Excalibur

And I'm looking forward to my first Cabaiguan this weekend.

As a few others have mentioned, my favorite is the 601 black. For a CT wrapper they pack a punch.

i just finished a robusto. i enjoyed it very much. also had a nub that someone gifted me and it was pretty good also but the 601 has a lot more complexity.
