Your MVP award (Most Valuable Puro).....Lifetime award.

[El Presidente]

Another great Friday deck discussion 

Your MVP award (Most Valuable Puro).....Lifetime award. 

Let me define this. 

From your cigar smoking history, from all the boxes you have purchased, CC and NC, that one box that has stood out above all others  in terms of utility/enjoyment. Your all time MVP. 

 

It's a hard question so don't overthink it. Close your eyes and one or two boxes will come to mind. Call them

2018 Partagas 898

2021 CoRo

Mag 46 for sure. Never lets me down.

Would love to say Sig III, but pricing means it's basically dead to me. Punch 48's really speaking to me the past few years. 

Cheers!

Party Shorts after 6-7 years laid down. Also from a guy that has about 70 boxes in storage on average. There is always 4-5 Cabs of party shorts laid down.

2015 Esplendidos

[griller]

I gotta go with my original Nudies Lancero bundle ordered when they were first released. I still have a few left and EVERY cigar I've smoked from that bundle has been spot on and they only get better. Going to be so sad when that last one is done.

[BrightonCorgi]

Cohiba Gran Reserva

[Puros Y Vino]

• La Escepcion Selectos Finos. (Very hard to keep my hands off them.)
• 2002 RA 898's (Every single one has been a banger. Will be sad when these are done.)

[Goldeneye]

2014 Trinidad Reyes.  Brought two boxes home from a Cuba trip and they were what really got me started in my cigar journey.

[Lucas Buck]

‘01 Esplendidos - the box that made these my favorite cigar. Can’t even describe how amazing they are. Still a few left. 
 

Honorable mention - 

‘03 Siglo VI - stupendous cigars. I have given so many away over the years because my friends just had to try one and see what all the fuss is about. 
‘02 SLR DC Cab - just smoked another a few months ago. Yummmmmmm!

’98 Lusi Cab

’02 Party Lonsdales Cab

 

[HenryMartin]

Without thinking too much into it these popped into my head:

• 2015 Cohiba Maduro Secretos - More than a few were plugged but as is life
• 2005 Punch Double Coronas - So much class they made me humble

[Havanaaddict]

1980's Davidoff Château Margaux every stick has been mind-blowing!

I had two cabs of the 02 Party Londales-Great smokes. Much better than DB versions.

[Chas.Alpha]

I went through 4 boxes of 2006 R&J Churchills between ‘08 and 2012. All were outstanding. Either they were completely different then or my palate has changed dramatically since.

[MagicalBikeRide]

MUO DIC 14 CoLa

A good friend left me this box when he found out his cancer was terminal. They’re all gone now and they were incredible - every single one.

I’ve never really figured if it was an objectively amazing box, or if it simply reminded me of him - and that this connection made the experience all the richer. 

[El Hoze]

Tang Monarch. That box single handedly shaped my inventory as I bought just about every Monarch and SW I could find after (thankful I did). Would love to revisit another box sometime (missed that recent box on BR, what a mistake that was).

If Rob and Hamlet could duplicate that blend again, I would be homeless.

[Sudzdaddy]

RA Corona cab, OSU APR 02, just a handful left.

[Çnote]

OG La Petite Nox 50ct.

[westg]

Easy. The golden age for me PSP Montecristo No 2 from 2014. They are long gone and were so good.
