LG Diez Small Batch #1
Padron 1926 Maduro #6
Padron 1964 Maduro Monarca

Like Todd, tomorrow those might not even be close to the top 3, but I think it's safe to say that something Padron, something LG Diez and something Fuente will be lingering there in the top 3 any specific day.

...I just had to go by what I have been consuming massive quantities of right now.

I know my top three will always be ranked really high, but when I go on my "sweet & mild" kicks, Fuente 858s are pretty hard to top on my list...along with a Lot 23 and nice cup of coffee.

When I get a "sweet and mild" kick, I usually grab a cc. They're a good cup of coffee choice, too. Almost as good as an Oliva Blue Maduro.

Yeah, that's the path (or steep slope) I'm headed down now. I'm slowly increasing the CC population in my humi, and I have LOVED how they smoke with coffee...especially with a medium roast Kona Estate.

...I really need cheaper hobbies...

I was just curious because you mentioned coffee. Typically, I like stronger sticks, so the Lot 23 maduro would be my preference for say, a golf smoke; but I've gained an appreciation for milder sticks (especially connies) as a morning smoke with coffee.
