Whenever I open my coolidor, I longingly glance at this box. Not just because they are smoking fantastically, but because I have so few left.

... what to post?

For me it must be a cigar that is not only one that I lust, but one that I have started to smoke from. Cigar lust takes many forms, some of which is a matter or pride of ownership, speculative or investment, and one of the connoisseur. The connoisseur in me cares little about the value of the cigar or its rarity, its bands and shiny box. What matters is its taste performance. That means I have to know the cigar intimately!

I was very happy to start to smoke from this cab this last year and it was worth every penny of it speculative value to me as a connoisseur.

Here is my choice!

I was waiting to see what cigar you would pick. I had you pegged for these or RA Coronas.

I think we get two choices... I could not resist these because they are so lightly colored. I have several such boxes of beautiful du Roi's as well, and even though they are seldom discussed, and not likely to get the likes of the 'heavy hitters' they are a favorite of mine. The same goes for the RG CE from '01, just a fantastic cigar, time and time again!

RAPC, RGCE, du Roi, SdC, Diplo 1... What do you want to see brothers, I love them all!!! I can hardly choose!

From one who sometimes disparages the ELs and REs, two of the best I have. And both are ready to sample.

Being true to my loves, and not expecting to win any awards, I had some nice choices between some lovely boxes. While I would bet some of the more classically sought after cigars would get more likes, this is what I choose.

 

 

These are RG CE’s. I cannot tell you how good these cigars are. This is one of the few boxes I have left.

 

I wish I had the photographic skills of some of our mates. If you look closely at these cigars, they are flawless! These are samples of how Cuban cigars should look, taste and feel in the hand. They are weighty, firm and balanced. These fit well what Rob asked for, in my opinion, simply stunning cigars! I have to add that they smoke as well as they look! I have smoked many boxes of these!

 

This is why I smoke Cuban cigars! The gems are not often (for me) found in the pricey double banded 'editions.' They are often the obscure yet proven, with decades of history under the lid, and not often coveted cigar.

 

Cheers all! Have a great weekend.

Sadly these aren't mine. I just screenshot one of Rob's 24:24 a while back.

Occasionally, I look at this pic and lick the screen ?

You seriously deserve a consolation prize my friend! I owe you (a cigar) next time we meet up for at a get together!

The day you broke one of my wine glasses (accidentally of course) and offered another one from the box as compensation was 100% seriously one of the happiest days of my life. No, it definitely ain't mold!

I'll throw mine in the ring as well. Two of my favorite boxes to stare at: Connie A (LAU Dic15) and SCdlH La Fuerza (TOS Dic 15). Gotta let these sleep awhile, though I have had 2 of the La Fuerzas and they were sublime.
