The "Other things you do" thread inspired this one. What are you top five favorite cigars that you smoke?

1. Ashton VSG
2. Ashton Cabinet
3. Perdomo Champagne
4. Punch Gran Puro
5. Torano Exodus 1959 Gold

Honorable mentions:
Other Toranos, All CAOs, Excaliburs (both regular and 1066)

Favorite sizes are the robusto followed by the corona.

My top 5 so far from my limited experience:

Edit: if we are including "other" cigars, then: RyJ No. 4 is so far my top number 1.

1. Torano Sig
2. Torano Exodus Gold
3. Ashton VSG
4. Monte Serie V
5. CAO Brazilia

Every one of these is based off of a single stick, though I have plenty more of the Sig to enjoy. I have one more Exodus Gold in the humi as well. I expect this list will soon be completely outdated as I have some PAMs, WOAMs, and other AF Hemis resting.

I just received an Excalibur 1066 from buymorecigars.com when they sent out their new catalog. Can't wait to try it.

Quick question, I figured we were only talking NCs considering the forum, no?

Nah. I only did N/Cs because that were all my experience lies.

But Lately here's my 5 Favorite Doms

Opus Power Ranger

AVO 22

Don Carlos (any)

AF Hemingway Classic

Torano Signature Toro


They never fail to satisfy, I have had alot of Hit and Miss experiences with several Brands and Smokes. This group is Always there to consistantly supply a Quality experience.

PAM Serie 1964 Torpedo
PAM Serie 1964 Imperial
Davidoff Millenium Series
Opus X Double Corona
Diamond Crown Grande Torpedo

Even though my personal Humi is 90%+ of the Darkside - my smoking experience and enjoyment would be GREATLY diminished if these awesome Non-Habana cigars were not available.... In fact, the Padron 64s are on my list of "if you were stranded on a desert island with only 5 cigars - what cigars would they be ?"

Top 5 cigars

1. Oliva "0" Original
2. Connie 112
3. Padron 2000 m
4. Torano 1916
5. La Luna's

With the exception of the oliva, I go to domestics for value. if it costs over $4 per stick, then I'd rather just any number of isoms' for the same price.

Not sure what I'd put as my fifth choice.
I haven't ever tried the more expensive stuff like opus, anejo, fuente, or Rocky Patel, so my list might be a little bit skewed.
