Hey Bros

Now that I have a nice list of best bang for your buck ISOM cigars how about your favorite ISOM cigar regardless of the price? What 's the one you'd smoke no matter what it took?

Thanks
John

If you must know, and gah now I can't try all the super-rare-expensive ones! I would have to say an '02 Unicos. May'be the moon was aligned in the right spot or the mood was just right, but it was wonderful when I smoked it!

98 Boli Tubos No. 2. In my short experience. Either that, or a private supply of El Laguito Custom rolled robustos. MMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

All of the custom rolled stuff is pretty nice. I'd have to say that the 70's & 80's aged smokes that I've had lately are knocking me out ('70's Party 8-9-8, '80's H. Upmann Naturals, and the incredible '80's RyJ Coronas). I'd have to say that most of the EL's are way too young to be good. The Davidoff's (#1's) that I've been smoking are also pretty fucking nice (all be it a little pricey). Your best bang for the buck is standard cigars with at least 10+ years age on them. To hell with the limited release stuff (unless it has age on it or you are buying it to age). I can't wait to dig into the '80's RyJ Churchills that I received a couple of weeks ago. If they are better than the Coronas I think that I'll sell everything that I have to get some more!!!!

My favorite Cuban cigar, regardless of cost is the Hoyo 109 from the book. Incredible cigar.

Best cigars I've ever smoked are aged RASS. I'm not the biggest fan of large rings but these were amazing. If looking at customs too, I'd say Monsdales are some of the best I've had, though it wasn't many of them.

My favorite cigar is the one I am smoking at the time.

If I had to pick just one regular production stick, I would go with the Cohiba Esplendido, good right ott, better with age.

The best cigar is the one that suits your mood at the time :) Sorry, there really is no 'correct' answer. Ex. I have a bunch of custom salamones, but I wouldn't smoke them unless the setting was just right- and yes, I have enough that I can smoke them anytime :) Sometimes, the best cigar is a MM.

I agree with the nub.

We told you what we like, now you must decide what you REALLY like. Lots of good cigars mentioned that could possibly be one of your new favorites or go to smokes. Smoke what you like the best and be happy :king:
