Popular Post jakebarnes Posted August 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2022 2006 Serie du Conneisseur #1. Honestly wasn't expecting much as I'd been afraid to smoke one and wondered if they were past their prime. Almost burned by fingers by the end. Absolute treat. Bring em back! Close second: 2019 Lusitania. Edged out, but I can't stop thinking about the SdC 1. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post KCCubano Posted August 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2022 03 Party Presidente. Still plenty strong but refined and smooth. Very complex. Easily in top 10 I have smoked in 22 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cnov Posted August 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2022 I don't know where the months keep going. Easily a Monte Dumas with a friend to celebrate their recent marriage. Fantastic cigar that makes me dread to think how much I'll be spending when they next come up! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post PuroDiario Posted August 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2022 Trinidad Topes 2019 after a heavy heavy lunch and few drinks. Surprised it was it, but it was indeed. And spent most of the month back home smoking like there’s no tomorrow 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Paladin865 Posted August 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2022 My best smoke was a Cohiba Robusto I had on my birthday. I have in the neighborhood of about 50 Cohibas of various vitolas saving them for special occasions 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Blakes Posted August 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2022 Upmann No.2 - The first Upmann I've smoked in a long time after losing interest in the brand 3 or 4 years ago. It was mind blowing good, solid 99 if not 100 point cigar. Not just the best cigar of August, but easily of the year, needless to say my interest in H.Upmann is back. 🤗 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Jonboy4074 Posted August 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2022 Haven't smoked many beacuse the heat/humidity here in Georgia this time of year will melt your soul. This was the one that came to mind for me. As much as I want to dislike them due to hype/availability, they're just damn good. Really damn good.

Popular Post hrs1 Posted August 30, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2022 A Lusi, PSD4 and CoLa were exceptional, but this BBF (UMR ABR 21) was a near perfect mix of cream, chocolate and Guinness. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post BlueRidgeFly Posted August 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2022 RASS MSU NOV 18. This box has been up and down, but this one was the best cigar of August—better than a 2017 Siglo IV, a good D4, some good PLs, M4s, and more. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post LizardGizmo Posted August 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2022 #1 was a LUB 14 Upmann 2 - an eye opening experience. and the surprise runner up was a RASS from a TUA OCT 21 cab I got on 24:24.

Popular Post Low Posted August 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2022 My Father La Opulencia Robusto My friends smoke bad cigars, Factory Smokes, CAO, Acid, Rockey Patel etc. This isn't a knock on them since that's what they enjoy, but I always receive some crazed looks when I give flavor notes of a non infused/more premium stick. I was finally fed up and decided to have one of them try my smoke when it hit a particulary flavorful spot. I know its bad etiquette to share cigars in this way, but we've known each other for 15 years and live together, so who cares. Gave him instructions on retrohaling, and the tongue at the top of the mouth trick. His eyes immediately light up cause he finally understands, starts laughing, and spurts out "coffee bean, 50% chocolate, not quite caramel but toasted sugar". This has been my favorite moment cause it felt like I'd opened up a whole new world for someone to experience. Plus, now when I say Cuaba Divinos taste like unsweetened peanut butter, they won't look at me like I have 2 heads. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Edicion Posted August 31, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2022 Had a few cracking Hoyo Rio Secos recently. Sep 2021 so less than a year on them but they seem to deliver every time. The last third is however unsmokeable. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cairo Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Right now I am smoking a JL2 from a UTL Feb 2018 box--and it is amazing--best of the month for sure. These have hit "prime time". 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
