MaltPointer Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Jack's post on "if you could only pick one" got me thinking, so here's my question (and if this has already been covered, forgive me): What is the best cigar you ever smoked? Ever. I'm too new to this craft to have a meaningful answer, but would love to hear from those willing to share their stories. Thanks!

Colt45 Posted March 4, 2008 Share Posted March 4, 2008 Sorry - for me it would be difficult to narrow it down to one cigar at one moment in time. I've had great cigars that I expected to be great. I've had a cigar new to me take me by surprise and wow me. I've had old standbys make me stare in amazement at how extra good it smoked on that day. I've had good cigars seem great given that day's surroundings and / or company. Fond memories all :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
