Great minds?

Just smoked an Illusione Epernay Le Petite to solidify the choice.

Tat Gran Cojonu

I think I would probably put a DPG Series JJ sublime after that.

They were soaking wet and weren't remotely ready for consumption, and I dried them out the best I could before we did a phone conference, and I had to get one smoked.
Out of ten guys, every one gave good marks except me and one more guy. I qualified mine with "the cigar just wasn't ready", so I kinda got tossed out.
I think I still have the other one (or two). Maybe it's ready by now?

Mind you, what follows is said not to offend or upset anybody, but I need to say it.

Top 3? Don't have any top 3! Don't have any top 1 either. Why? Because the cigars I smoke change depending on mood, food, company, and beverage. What might be my top 3 to smoke on one night might be different for the next night.

So, if I have to limit it to three, I choose not to participate.

Although, I think there are many who are thinking like me. They just don't have the chutzpah to say it.

Love you all!

By the way, I did smoke exactly 3 NCs yesterday, and since this list asks for 3, I will list the smokes that I had. They were:
Coronado Corona Gordo
Kristoff Sumatra Short Robusto
Paul Garmirian Bombone

Peace of the Lord be with you.

Bunker · 04-09-2011, 05:26 PM

I had chutzpah once when I was a kid (I think they have a shot for it now).

I look at these lists as what three boxes would I buy tomorrow if money wasn't an issue?

The Rev said what I didn't have the chutzpah to say. Actually, I had the chutzpah, I was just too lazy.

And since I now posted in here, I guess I ought to post up my highest rated cigars (according to my own very complicated, proprietary scale for rating cigars):

1. Padron X (m) ("X" = take your pick)
2. illusione ~mk
3. Tie: Romeo y Julieta Viejo and San Cristobal Francisco

Simmer down now, Todd.

Depending on my company, I'd choose what I'd smoke. Not knowing exactly what I'd be drinking or eating... If I were to have a cigar with you my friend, I think I'd smoke a Litto Gomez Oriental - something with stout body and small size, just to keep me humble.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
