Best Cigar #4

2009 PSP Diplomatico # 2 : Smoked it in 2010, the only one of the box that smelled and tasted like this. The smell and the taste was superior nostalgia of days and memories of past. This cigar transported me back in time. The smell was lavender and violets and rose and honey. Very defined floral and sweet. Very reminiscent of the high end English Shave creams and oils that my late Grandfather used to wear. The taste was spot on in line with the smell. Chewy, velvety- viscous smoke, very refined and prominent clean floral and honey notes of lavender violets and cream. Almost if you took a pot of sweet cream and steeped in fresh lavender a violets. The taste on the olfactory glands during retro-hale took me back to sitting on the couch with my granddad just after he showered and shaved. None of the other sticks in that box tasted or smelled that way, I've been on a pursuit box after box since then in search of that addicting and intoxicating flavor again. It torments me, it keeps me up at night, I remain steadfast in my journey to find this rare Dip 2 again. I will never give up, I will prevail!!!....................The only explaination I have is that for some odd reason Geo F. Trumper himself rolled that lone single miraculous glorious cigar. Technically 98/100 Sentimentally 100/100.

Mine would also be from Diplomaticos. A diplomaticos no. 1

This cigar though really made me sit up a take note, it gave off the most wonderful smell when lit, like walking into a kitchen when some fresh homemade bread had just come out of the oven. I'll never forget it. I've never had a cigar give off a smell that magnificent since.

I find heavily aged cigars to be far more aromatic.

[maverickdrinker]

I find ERDMs very aromatic

[Bartolomeo]

I have smoked some fresh customs that smelled divine....they may have not been ready for prime time but they smelled grand

[stargazer14]

Another vote for Diplomatico. I don't know if it is them most aromatic cigar I ever had,

but in recent memory, the 2009 Dip 4 I had a few weeks ago was outstanding in its dark choclate taste and amazing scent.

Long Live the Dips.

Fonseca #1 have always had such a strong and beautiful aroma for me; sugar sweetness mostly. It's a shame that none fo that ever appear in the taste for me!

Upmann Mag 46 have a lovely chocolate biscuit aroma for me too; hints at where they will go to down the line

2009 hup mag 46/50. For some reason every one I've had from 09 in a tubo smells like chocolate. They do not last long in my possession.

I purchased a nub sampler box, they smell like the worst part of a farm yard, I can't smoke um there that bad.

[CanuckSARTech]

The smoke from well aged (a decade plus) QdO and LGC MdO cigars is very fragrant, perfumy, and mild yet distinct.

[Duxnutz]

Opened an up til that moment sealed box of Sancho Panza CG the other day in a shop and nearly fell over. Super duper pungent aroma that has been marinating in peace since 1999. Nearly wet my pants.
