Ramon Allones "Gordie Howe"

‘01 Punch Monarca

H Upmann Royal Robusto

'02 LGC No.1

Partagas D4

Ramon Allones Superiore

Monte Especial No 1

Partagas 898

1999 Hoyo des Dieux

H Upmann No 2

For me........... it's Cohiba Majicos for May. These Lil Devils hit-the-spot this month!

[MnMWC]

04 Esplinado followed by an SLR Pacifico

[Surucipe]

Sig VI, followed closely by the '07 HU TraHuRo

[asmith]

My favourite would have to have been the Partagas P1. Cracked open a few for some of the lads Friday...glorious

I was there on Friday, I must have missed the moment you were handing them out to your friends!

[Ghabanos]

QDO supueriores. These are on!!!

[sabourin]

RA Beritus 09 closely followed by a HDM Des Dieux 99

One of the blind tasting cigars i recieved... who knows what it was!! LOL.

Same! Whatever it was it was good!

the Partagas Lusitania I smoked on No Tobacco Day. Praise the gods.

PSP Partagas Lusitania is my smoke of the month. I love the Lusi.

Best was probably a Mag 50 I smoked with my cousin on camping chairs set up on the Wellington Waterfront one lunchtime.

Although I did enjoy all the RASCC (my usual favourite) I was able to smoke indoors while I was in Japan. Being able to smoke in the pubs and hotels etc was a nice experience.

05 sig VI. Best cigar I've had in a while

[Mr.T]

I'll go with the H.Upmann Royal Robusto. I really like these and will do my very, very best to keep my hands off the rest of the box and let them age a bit. Ahhh who am I kidding, I'll smoke em all by the end of the summer.....

No doubt, JUN 2012 BHK 54 Considering their price, it should be!

San Cristobal De La Habana O’Reilly

A Hamlet Flying Pig I smoked the next night was close, but the O'Reilly was better. A link to my review of the O'Reilly is below:

O'Reilly and Monte GE. Both were excellent.

[bstarrs]

Upmann Mag48, was amazing. Bittersweet Chocolate, Wood, leather, it was awesome.

[Phillys]

A Monte GE and my first ever Partagas Short, both great cigars.

As unexperienced CC smoker I liked so much the JL Nº1 (MAR 2011) that I bought in a good price here... very rich and flavoured

[Steens]

2009 SLR DC about 1/2 way through the box and struck one of the best tasting cigars i've had, just unbeliveable flavors ,wishfull thinking tried two more since but the performance wasn't to be repeated

[Dbone]

A Siglo II from a box which has been smoking quite bad over the last couple years. However, the last few I've smoked have been outstanding.

[Smallclub]

Partagas Astorias from 1999.
