Man, really wish I could find this cigar it was epic. I smoked it in 2003/2004, an Edicion Limitada Maduro Cohiba Churchill 2003. I bought two for 100 Dollars from LCDH Tijuana. It was the strongest cigar I had at the time. A real ass kicker but with tons of peppery flavor. Must be the triple fermentation, Lol. But it's been so long it's hard to recount all the memories from that epic Habano. BOTL what is your favorite cigar of all time?

My first Padron 40th mad. Showed me what a premium cigar was suppose to be. Construction, composition, transition. Made the slippery slope a cliff I jumped off.

So back in 2004, I was working in a clean room in East Fishkill, NY as a support venor. One of the in house maintenance guys brought in a box of cigars his neighbor gave him. My buddy smoked cigarettes lighting one right off the previous, like a chimney so while his neighbor was in the Caribbean, he bought him a box of Cohiba's labelled as Dominican.
I didn't know about BOTL then and didn't know enough to save the box nor bands. Cigars were still more of a novelty to me then. Anyway, they were the best, smoothest, most flavorful (no pepper, but I didn't retrohale then either) cigars ever. I smoked one a day for twenty days, never to find them again...

@Jay_Habanos Some boxes of the Partagas EL Privada were like that. The only Full+ CC Ive had over the last few years. Did a split on 'em with some brothers from another mother, from the 'gabba'. Havent touched them since but it might be time to revisit.
Ive had a few that have been right in the sweet spot and blew me away, an '08 Boli Finos in 2013 is pretty memorable, an undated fresh P2 in 2014, a 2011 Monte 2, a 2011 Robusto T, and a 2012 BHK 52 to name a few.

Right now Im slowly burning through a few boxes that are outstanding:
Cohiba PE MUR JUL 2012
Hoyo Epi. 2 2008
HURR OCT 2012
Punch Punch RAE 2014
Partagas 898 RAE 2014

*CCs only
