Your most valuable cigar

[RonC]

I like collecting cigars as well as smoking them. What interesting or valuable cigars do you have in your collection? For me, its an Opus "TT"A signed by Mayor Giuliani and Carlito Fuente.

[Halon]

I'm shipping my most valuable cigar out on Monday, but after that it'll be my Opus X DC again.

[jckposter]

Mine was a gift from Boxdoctor fogot which master roller rolled it but it was rolled for some big wig Saudi prince..aad Boxdoctor sent me one... :D :D :D

[Kurtdesign1]

Value??
Davidoff #2
Perhaps also...
Ashton VSG Estate Reserve 'A'

[Viper139]

Probably my Opus X's

[sharil]

My Anejo Shark

[Bman]

I picked up a fiver of these at a great price....Dunhill Estupendos

[Black Dog]

My most prized cigars at the moment are a couple of Anejo's and an Opus X. I also have an Untold Story which I believe is pretty pricey. I just got them in a sampler from a brother and haven't smoked any of them yet but I suspect they won't rest in the humi too long before I light 'em up and determine their true value to me. I think I'm gonna like them!

[dbaranska]

I have a couple....value to me is meaning....ie I have a cigar from when I got married about 6 1/2 years ago....Opus x Robusto....I can't wait to smoke this when the divorse is final.... :twisted: :lol: ....second would be the 2 Perdomo Silvio's and a Ramon y Ramon from the big Ramon humidor with the Partage 150's....

[DRL1211]

I was gifted an Original Release Opus X from my secret santa this year. I'm not sure which one it is, but I think it's the one cigar I won't touch for a long time. It is a belicoso with no ribbon on the end. I means alot to me that someone will give a cigar like that without thinking twice.

[solomr2]

I have an Opus TT "A" in it's own coffin, and one somewhat rare Punch Diadema. I also have one CAO odyssey and one CAO millenium, both in a coffin - I don't know how rare those are.

I don't know if I'll ever smoke the Opus or the Punch, but I'll probably burn the two CAOs on some festive occasion.

[DocRKS]

I have 3 cigars left (from an auction purchase of 13 boxes!) of 1948 Francisco Farach "Joyas" - Diplomatic Presentation....
I will smoke 1 when my oldest daughter graduates West Point in May - and then one at her and her sister's weddings.

After that - my best are Habana Davidoffs and Dunhills.

[jerdog]

probably the custom rolled taboadas. i have two left, I have smoked one and it was a really good cigar.

[JgButler]

A custom rolled Taboada for me as well. I had one gifted to me and have just been waiting on a very special occasion to enjoy it.

[JMMARICH]

I have a couple. Anejo Shark, 1 Opus X, and a crap cigar my dad gave me.

--Josh

[hawkan2580]

Definitely my Flor the Cano short churchills -80s or RA Trump tubos -47 and my small selection of Dunhills and Davidoffs.. which one is more valuable is a matter of who's buying and who's selling + what else is out there at the moment. Value is a floating thing when you are talking about vintage cigars and the like. (highly depending on conditions too) :D

[Aizuddin]

My most prized cigar in the humi now is a Partagas Mill Salamone. Gosh... dunno what possessed the great BOTL who sent it to me to send it to me. What did i do to deserve such a prize? :) Will probably save that cigar for God knows how long. That's the problem with prize cigars -- they are damn near unsmokable because they are so rare!!! :D

He probably was obsessed by the "make sure someone smokes this one as you can't" demon.. so light it up mate, that is its destiny and its purpose in life :wink:

[Ironman]

Definetly my recently acquired Partagas Anniversary 155 :shock: :shock:

Thanks Jerry =D>

[SMOKOZUNA]

I like to collect Custom rolled cigars. My favorite is the Robaina Farm rolled Culebras.

[coastalwader]

Nothing out of the ordinary here, really. I have a Monte Millenium Robusto... like I said, pretty ordinary. :lol:

I'm wanting to aquire three to five special sticks over the next month or so. Hopefully through the BOTL here.

[Bsslack]

Hakan makes a good point about Value.

But I think we all understand the concept, What's most vauable to You?

I have couple of '79 Mac vintages with sentimental value. A original release Forbidden-X Lancero and several other Special to me cigars.


But at this Moment I have a Very Special Cigar with a Very Special Destiny.

And Aged Habanos Davidoff that I offered to trade for. The TRUE Brother who sent it to me declined Payment. :shock:

I sent it anyway, because as Strong as His Dedication to the Brotherhood Is(and it is Very Strong) So Is My Desire to be A Worthy Brother.

It's the kind of cigar I'll not likely see again. So, I better have a Excellent reason to Burn it!

I do, My Girl is coming Home from the Hospital soon(?) and When She does and Drifts off to Sleep in Her own Bed, for the first time in Over TWO Months!

Mr. Davidoff, My Good Brother Far Away and I Shall have a salute`!!

That's my Most Valuable Cigar.

[Mali]

Now THAT is a reason to celebrate...

[Newt]

WOW

There is some absolutely unbelievable reply's to this thread!!!

I am humbled both by the Brothers here and of course by their collections.... amazing as usual... if that can be construed as "usual"

Anyways... I have a Padron 26 that I bought on my honeymoon that is very special to me :)

As well as the "senora"? commissioned H. Upmann mareva that Hawkan was kind enough to send me... (sorry if I got that wrong hawkan)

Along with that...

I FINALLY have a taboda custom roll in the humi thanks to my good friend chippy :)

Mine's a Salamone rolled by Arnaldo Ovalles Brinone.

It was gifted to my by Aizuddin. I don't think it will ever be smoked. :lol:

[smokinafuente]

Lets see....

I have a 3 year old maduro Hemingway ... no, I smoked that one.
How about an original release Anejo ... smoked that one too.
I got it! The SG Hemingway .... no, I gave that and a 5er of Opus away at a charity herf.
OK, how about.., that one is gone also.



ummm...... never mind.





Note: By the looks of it We may have to Have a live/remote Herf When L-B comes Home!:)


SlackYou know I'm there man!!

[geoffrie]

My most valuble is probably a 35th Anni Cohiba Dalia

Plus a couple of custom rolled ... including some Toboada DPs and robustos.

Also a recent gift from my lawyer ... a 10 year old custom rolled ... not sure the roller ... it was from a conference he attended in Montreal... but as he tells the story the connaiseuers in the group were wowed by the roller.

[Chinkowski]

I have a couple. Anejo Shark, 1 Opus X, and a crap cigar my dad gave me.

--Josh



you forgot the mold rocket, priceless

[tedski]

I guess the most valuable cigars I have would be :

- an OpusX Lancero and a Don Carlos Lancero that I purchased in the 2004 CFCF auction.
- a 1998 Cohiba Lancero gifted to me by a friend on a pipe BB I frequent
- a 2004 Taboada-rolled torpedo sent to me in the CW Top This Trade by Bman.

[Buckwheat]

I agree Bman. I've given away more of these than I've smoked. I do try to save them for special occasions when I do smoke them. Plus I take a winter break during the cold months. It allows me to stock up for the summer months.

They are just cigars after all.

Enjoy and everyone have a healthy and happy holidays.

[caudio51]

Probably my Cohiba Sublime...think I paid around $35

[dmoby]

2000 partagas salamons, 04 towada DP, Avo 22's

[jasontp]

I can't wait until I have something to post here. . . I'm really big into collecting too. I wish I could've held onto some of the really great wines I've had. . . I keep the wine bottles as souveniers. I'm probably going to be scouring this thread when I finally decide to make an honest woman out of my girlfriend of 4 years.

[The Searcher]

None at this time -- all my cigars are smokers!

My most valuable cigars are the ones gifted to me by close friends.

[ohpus]

You are so correct!! My list is of my rare cigars. My most valuable are some of the opus I bought for when I got engaged, some that I received in charity auctions, hadfull that were gifted. Those have the most meaning.

[Doofus]

The most valuable to me are the ones I bought when my grandson and granddaughter were born, to be smoked on their 18th birthday. (I bought 2 for my grandson's, one for me and one for him.)

[Shiba]

I would have to say my Cohiba Siglo VI's

[cvm4]

I'd say my custom rolled cigars and the 1-time release cigars (BGM/VR - Robaina).

[ohpus]

[dmoby]

About 6 months ago I smoked a BGM NR and it was pretty damn good.

[RSpro]

I would have to say either the early Edicion limitada habanos 2000 and 2001 or my god of fire collection including the 2004 torpedo.

[Boppa-Wasch]

The last one in the box!!!!!!!:gangfire:

[The Prince]

Probably my box of Gold Medals, Taboada's.

[indyrob]

The most valued cigar I have is a Party 150 Robusto (NC) that was given to me by a dear friend.

The most cherished cigar I have is a few OR Ashton VSG's. Those are Great smokes!

I have 1 OR PAM "A" left, but that'll wait for a few more years until it get's smoked.

All of these were gifts from a very close friend, that makes them priceless.

-Rob

[fredneck]

A BGM Tripp gave to me wayyyyyyyy back when.....saving it for my Birthday.

[Len___T]

My most valuable cigars are the ones gifted to me by close friends.

Agree wholeheartedly with ya...something about getting a smoke from a buddy..or giving him a smoke...and smoking it...either together or by yourself...memories is what makes an enjoyable smoke for me...Matter of fact this weekend I will smoke my last cigar I got from indyrob in my nst with him when I joined the site last august..Its a padron...not sure of the series but its a huge cigar lol...Going to have to make the time to smoke it but I will as a 1 yr anni gift to myself lol..That and the fact that I havent even heard of the majority of the cigars(CC) that have been posted...got a cpl opus x and anejo sharks I was gifted/bought/traded for..tauajes and several 1926 PAM which if I was able they would be a daily smoke for me lol...dang those things are goooooooooood...worth what I paid for imho...len

[Donk]

I would have to say my most prized stick would be a 1978 ERD lonsdale (C.C.) gracously gifted to me from Oneaday. Which will be Smoked this coming Feb. on my 30th birthday. Other than that, either my opus X's and GOF. But honestly, I feel all my ISOM cigars are special.

[derfatdutchman]

My most prized is a Cohiba gifted to me by a friend, cost wise it would have to me the Opus's I've picked up here and there.

[vperlman]

Pineapple White Owls...








:smokingbo :hysterica

[siepattu]

Wov, you guys have some really nice cigars!

My would be some CC EL's (2000 Partagas Piramide, Cohiba DC & Sublime)

I have had my eyes on a box (25) of Romeo y Julieta Lonsdales from 1978 (my year of birth) but that is a lot of money. On the other hand, I could smoke one every birthday for the next 25 years... Aargh!
