I've really enjoyed the few H. Upmann Magnum 50 that I've smoked. So, that's my pick.

I haven't tried a Mag 50 yet, but I hear great things...I've gotta try a couple.

The Monte D.

The Monte D wasn't new this year, that's an 05 EL.

True but I smoked it this year so it was new for me.. the Mag 50 then.

No offense meant, I just thought we were shooting for cigars released in 08.

some really good smokes this year. triunfador, cruzado, frank, pinar del rio, to name a few.... but, i gotta go with the mag 50. mighty fine smoke!!

IMO, CC vs NC is no contest at all. Just my 0.02.

 

[JDP]

I've only had one Mag 50 and that was like 3 years ago but I remeber it being awesome!

 

[Moro]

CC - Magnum 50 and it'll be much better in a few years
NC - From the ones I've already tried, La Riqueza No. 5 (Loved that little thing)

 

[WhiteLightning]

La Riqueza #1.

I guess it would have made sense to specify CC or NC cigars. I was referring to NCs, but it's good to point out the new CCs as they are often few and far between (new ones that is). I have not had a Mag50 yet, but will try to get my hands on some.

 

[Cyrann]

La Riqueza No. 5 Cabinet (rounds)
Illusione - ECCJ
My Father No. 3 (and only that vitola)

In that order for NCs.

It's hard for me to call #1 on a cigar I've only smoked one of, but for me it was the Frank, Blacks are up there and I've smoked a bunch of those, but I love Frank and I'm not afraid to say it.
