El Presidente Posted May 14, 2009 Posted May 14, 2009 This list should be forged by your personal experience. Those cigars which with 4-7 years of age have never let you down......EVER! They need to be exceptional My list would look like this: Cohiba Robusto.

El Presidente Posted May 15, 2009 Author Posted May 15, 2009 Its not so surpriing that the same cigars keep coming up time and time again Nice list for those not so experienced in Cuban cigars.

shrink Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 Upmann Sir WinstonUpmann Monarca (AT) Bolivar Corona Gigante Bolivar Inmensa Partagas Lonsdale Partagas Corona Cohiba Siglo IV Montecristo #1 SCDLH El Principe SCDLH El Morro There are more that I love, but these are stalwarts for me. Never had a bad box with some age on it. A great list, Matt. I dearly love the Boli Inmensas and the Party lonsdales, and was tempted to list both, but unfortunately I have had too many plugged, or tight examples of each from 2001. The Monte #1 remains one of my "runners-up", because of a box of 2003's that were bland. Current examples are superb.
CigarmanTim Posted May 16, 2009 Posted May 16, 2009 The unofficial tally. And the winner is.................................... H Upmann Sir Winston 7 Partagas Serie de Connoisseur #1 5 Partagas Serie De Connoisseur No 3 5 Bolivar Coronas Gigantes 4 Bolivar Coronas Extra 4 I'm surprised there were no Cohibas up there and the Boli Corona Gigantes was a surprise to me. The Sir Winny will be my next purchase.
