Hey Guys...The list has started to be released and I know JR Cigar carries 2 of them. The Ashton ESG came in at #8 (one of my all time favorites) and the Monte By Montecristo came in at #9. Very excited to see the rest of the list!

I like to take a look at the list as well, usually to see how many legit cigars wind up on it.

I feel like the top 25 as rated by consumers (like the folks here) would come to a different conclusion. Maybe I'm wrong. But for example, I don't see many posts raving about NC Montecristo.

That said, I am curious to try one now.

Surprised the padron is not 1 or 2...


I bet there will be a Cohiba or Monte in the top 5, some BS cheap crap that no one likes in the top 5, maybe another padron, and some DE cigar that the fanboys love.

Iirc DE never makes it in top status on here. Must not be paying enough

Edit: just looked and the HE pyramide fino was 8 last year

Politics seem to run a lot of things. Ive never been good at politics outside of moving up in my career but even with that I am too honest lol. People dont appreciate blunt honesty.

CA knows for a fact they must but the biggest contributors up on the top 25 list because if not then the ROI for the cigar manufacturers isnt worth it. The Aging Room F55 from last year was a decent smoke but worthy of top NC? Nope.


I disagree. I thought that was a good stick for sure. Certainly better than any GHURKA!!!! Hahah
We are in agreement on everything better than Ghurkha hahaha
