Forgotten Cigars....

[vivalanation734]

What is the cigar you always seem to forget about and then you smoke it and you are blown away?

For me its the DPG Blue Label. I used to love these things, but over the past few years Habanos and other sticks have taken priority. Every time I smoke one I always kick myself for not having/aging more.

Padron Londres, first thing I look for in a strange shop when I am not sure what to smoke.

thats how finishing my last p2 left me feeling....
maybe thankfully, no other "last on hand" smoke has duplicated those same disparaging feelings. :crying:
i dont want to talk about this anymore

Punch Rare Corojo. This used to be one of my go to sticks but once I expanded my tastes I don't smoke it or the Libertad as much anymore. But, when I do... It/they, hit the spot.

With age, even the newer ones (made at Raices Cubanas I think) are great. Padilla is definitely the whole brand that I forget about, and every once in a while find one buried in the humidor, like the Dominus I found recently that I bought right when I started smoking cigars. WOW. With that much down time, at the bottom of the deep, dark humidor, it had turned into a smooth, black pepper and leather bomb.

Good thread. Made me go look. La Gloria Cubana Reserva Figurado. I have a box from 2005 and 6. Wonderful cigars with great smoke and flavor.

Oliva Serie V - I always come back for more after trying several no-names and new releases

Ashton VSG...... don't smoke or keep them as much as I used to... but when someone sends me one in a trade or something, I always enjoy it.... and wonder why I don't smoke more of them.

The Pepin ones, yes.

How do you know which are Pepin other than the box? I received a single in a lotto payout.

Good one. The VSG, for being as big a name as it is, and as good as it is... It definitely doesn't get talked about much, and I have only ever smoked a few of them. I just always get distracted from them, or pick up something less expensive (I will say, I think the VSG, at least at my locals, is a little overpriced)

Plume maybe Chris?

Bands are different I think, and the box dates allow you to tell.

I actually prefer the new sig 32's using Casa Fernandez' Aganorsa leaf. I'm getting tired of the Pepin pepper bombs. The non Pepin's have Padilla written in script on the band.

Because they aren't as good as they used to be, unfortunately. I used to love these in the early 2000's....what a cigar. Over the last 4-5 years they've gotten marginal.
