Your Best Cigar Experience of January 2026? 

That cigar that just stood head and shoulders above the rest. That cigar that you can still taste when you close your eyes. Your best cigar of the last 30 days

Padron 1964 Family Reserve 45 Natural. Absolutely superb cigar in every way.

An OLM Oct 2014 Hoyo de Monterrey Le Hoyo de San Juan. In a word...bliss!

Love the San Juan! They (even recent examples) have been smoking the house down

So far AG Lancero by AG Cigars (Alex Glez). Very good Cuban taste.

Fantastic to see Alex doing well 

We are hope to catch up for a private Zoom in the coming weeks. Looking forward to it.

QD54 ASR JUN 19. Was by far the best example of these I’ve tried.

Juan Lopez Selection No 2–first one I’ve tried. Only the 3rd or 4th Cuban variety I’ve had. I’ll be chasing that taste for a while. It helped that I was in my swim out pool in 85 degree weather in Mexico and not the frozen tundra of the Midwest US.

This SLR DC was the best cigar I’ve ever smoked. Every cigar from the box has been really good but this one just hit perfection that day. I’m hoping the remainder I have of them hit the same level.

I’m going to have to call a 3-way tie between a MOFOH Spada, a Punch Short I got from the orig release (2019), and a Guillermo León WCD 126th Lancero.

I would have to say that this Salomones was on fire!

03' La China Salomon Espresso, Black Licorice, Molasses    

Blah 

Ok       

Good          

Tasty             

Heavenly

The first from the box of 10. Enjoyed while throwing some arrows with a friend. 

Very enjoyable, lighter than I was expecting but a terrific cigar from start to finish. Nubbed it.

I'm jealous, that wrapper looks great for such an old cigar. I just had a SLR PC that just did it for me. It's gotta be my favorite brand.

The AEP 07 SLR DCs are superb sticks.

In the photo, the tarnish on the band looks like a cracked wrapper, but it truly was perfect.

I think that's what mine are.  Certainly '07
