Congratulations, you can design your own custom cigar. The problem is...you will only be able to smoke this one cigar for the rest of your life. What size and blend ( the blend/flavour profile, must be chosen from an existing production marque and vitola).

For me:

Size: Corona Gorda

Blend: La Gloria Cubana Tainos. Milk coffee, sweet, medium bodied.

(the first two thirds of the LGC Tainos we experienced in one of this years tastings was the finest cigar experience I have had in a long time).

Yours?

Size : Corona Gorda

Mix : Cohiba Lancero, Sweet, citrus, leather, with the zing of HDM PR would half to be thrown in there.

But the fullness of H. Upmann Lonsdale

Great question, Rob.

Size: Julieta 2, the Churchill, because you can always choose to smoke less than all of it, but if it's too short...

Blend: San Cristobal de la Habana, La Fuerza, rich, aromatic, earthy, sweet, just lip smacking good

This one's too tough for me to give a definative answer to.....

Size - corona gorda 1a, churchill 1b

Blend - standouts over the past year - my most recent Upmann Sir Winston,

Upmann mag 46, RyJ exhibicion #3 - I could not pick one.

size: pyramid-Montie2 size

blend: i would like the quality twang of a Mag 46, mixed with the richness of a La Punta, topped with the spice of a young Siglo 1. :-D

Well, looks like I am not the only one who prefers the corona gorda size.

But I'd go with the aged ERDM choix flavor mixing in some nice monte flavors for complexity.

Posted

Have to agree with Ken a nice light wrapper on a SLR DC and those flavor's to die for. Just a well balanced Cigar all around just sit back and enjoy the show cigar.

Posted

I'd go with a Corona Gorda as my first choice, with the pyramid-Monte 2 size as my backup. As far as the blend goes, that's a bit tougher. I would want something that stands out but something that is not to overpowering. Maybe a mix between: Monte 2, BBF (love those), and possibly add in a pinch of ERDM choix....;-)

a piramide.

the cigar would offer great tobacco flavor reminiscent of a bolivar with a full offering of partagas spice. the spectrum would blossom open much like a QdO (not the actual flavor, but rather the range of flavor) with a complexity and blending rivaling that of a cohiba. a side note would be a molasses undertone, as with SCDH. the finish would be crisp and clean, like a trini.

This is easy:

Size: PC

Blend: Bolivar PC

Hmmm, looks like I'm in luck!!

Honorable Mentions:

#1

Size: PC

Blend: VR

I'd go with that one amazing VR Unico I had. Smoked more from the same box, but while still incredible, did not have the same flavours as this one. Incredibly full bodied and earthy, with a rustic sweetness like raw sugar, and a bit of creamy coffee or vanilla added in if I could.

I agree with Rob but as a Lonsdale size instead!!

The 2001 Taino's are incredible imo..when was yours from Rob?

Posted

Wow, this is a tough one. I would have to say...

Size: Lonsdale

Blend: The richness of the Partagas SdC No. 1 mixed with some of the complexity and sweet flavors of the Siglo III. Might clash, but might not. Would be interesting.

Size - Churchill

Blend- Taboada strong blend. Unbelievable smoothness and strength in a size you just can't get enough of.

Regular blends:

Churchill sized Siglo III.

Not going to go there.:-)

I'd get bored with the same cigar day after day, no matter how good it was.

Posted

Can you make a cigar better than the Sig VI?;-)

Ok a new blend- Sig VI and Boli PC in a corona gorda.

Posted

Good topic!!!

For me this would be easy as I would choose an existing cigar that had the most flavor changes I've ever experienced. It was like smoking 4 different cigars in one, and at 9inches long it almost was LOL

They Hoyo De Monterrey Particulares... excellent smoke that changed flavor profiles every 5-10minutes... it was beautiful.

However if pressed to really participate as the rules say I would have to choose:

Size = Dalia

Flavor Profile = vintage Montecristo flavor. Like the late 80's Especial's taste, vintage, leathery and deep cocoa flavor. MMmmmm

Othewise a pc length with slightly larger ring gauge. Cohiba richness and Bolivar and/or Partagas spice.

I have been giving this some thought, and had changed my mind a number of times, but I think something that would be adamned fine cigar would be:

Blend: Punch Super Seleccion No 2

Size: Double Robusto

I am hoping the RE for the PCC is exactly that. Here's to keeping out fingers crossed.:-D

El P. Are the LGC Tainos good young? sounds like something I would enjoy but I seem to have a difficult time leaving them alone to age. And no I can't purchase two boxes as I need the funds for a different box ;-)

Thanks
