Inaugural Cuban Cigar Hall of Fame Nominations?

[El Presidente]

If you were to nominate three cigars for a Cuban Cigars Hall of Fame, which three would they be. 

I will break it up into two categories. Category one : Current Production and Category two: Discontinued. 

  * You can nominate up to three cigars for Category one. 

  * You can nominate up to three cigars for Category two. 

  * I will put a poll up showcasing the top 15-20 in each category and members can choose. 

  * From the results of those  polls, 8 cigars only from each category will go into the Hall of fame. 

 

So lets start by you nomination on this thread, the cigars for each category.
