El Presidente Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 You know....that box or that single that has a special edge to it. The very rare box or the stick with special significance. For me it was some Monte A size Panetela's 190mm x 38 Ring Guage rolled by Jaime "Hamlet" Paredes years ago.

Ken Gargett Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 i'm also rather pleased with those last remaing couple of early SLR DC's but after the last couple of days, might fire one up to watch the irish.
cigarnv Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 Really two special cigars.. the first is a pair of Cohiba 30th Anniv. Double Robusto's (from the limited release humidors) and a bundle of Carlos Valdes modified "A"s (48x10.25") rolled in 2002 before he retired.
PorscheC4S Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 Since I've only sampled a small number of Fidel's offspring, I'm still waiting to see. I used to have quite a few Opus X before I got bitten by the Cuban bug. I find they're a bit much now as my tastes have mellowed. I'm hoping that the LEs on the CIGAR PORN thread will be a nice addition to my little family.
skindiver Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 Mine is a VR humidor made on the farm in San Luis y Martinez in Cuba.A pyramid shaped work of art.I have it full of "special cigars" i.e. Hamlet Salomones,some La China goodies,and the remaining cigars I have from the Trinidad Farmhouse humidor.Also, a good number of various Edicion Limitadas and farm rolled cigars from Vegas Robaina.
cigardawg Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 I have a handful of Taboada custom rolls and one Moralez custom roll. Kind of interesting cigars. I have smoked the Taboadas...fantastic. Other than that, nothing very special in my collection, just a bunch of good smokes from 1997-2005.
jgros001 Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 I would say some Taboada and Rodriguez custom rolled; Ramon Allones Eminincia which won't be cracked for about 5-7 years.
bassman Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 Definitely my Taboada custom rolls & still have about 1/3 box of 1975 SLR Lonsdales.

DrAlejandro Posted June 24, 2006 Posted June 24, 2006 Ive got a party salomones and a Cohiba Sublime El that im saving for a special occasion ;-)
Professor Twain Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 I'd have to say my newly acquired box of Cohiba Siglo VI Tubos.
shrink Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 » Here is my pride and joy: » » » Good to know that you keep it clean and shiny! (Your humidor, that is...) ;-)
CigarZen Posted June 25, 2006 Posted June 25, 2006 Best looking is a book of Partagas C1s just lovely -- dark, oily, thin wrappered without a vien; striking if I say so. I have another C1 book that doesn't look as good. May be since that book is unbroken they are aging better.. As an aside Rob, I looking forward to the Trini book.

habanablue Posted June 26, 2006 Posted June 26, 2006 01 Lusitania's picked up in Havana. Beautiful smokes and special as they were actually bought in the promised land...
1f1fan Posted June 26, 2006 Posted June 26, 2006 Hmmmm...I can't single out just one box. 1. 98 Upmann #4's 2. 02 Partagas Lonsdale cabs 3. Upmann Super Coronas
habanohal Posted June 26, 2006 Posted June 26, 2006 I have 1 Greycliff Expresso Pirate that I had rolled in Nassau on our wedding anny 2 years ago. Cant seem to bring myself to smoke it when May 14 comes around. Will try next year now
JMH Posted November 15, 2008 Posted November 15, 2008 My limited edition El Pres ashtray Oh, I forgot to mention that this was hand crafted by one K. Gargett, in what I understand was a labour of love for both he and his model.
