Cigar Aficionado Top 25

[vivalanation734]

I think #1 will be the Melanio. LAT56 will end up being #11 or #12 I think.

Melanio wasn't good IMHO. The regular V is far superior. I'm pulling for LAT or anything from Dion.

My guess wasn't based on what I think should be number 1. Just what I think they will pick.

True.

I glance at the ratings, but never buy anything based on them. I subscribe to CA for the occasional good feature article and the cool ads (I like to gaze at all the high-dollar shit I can't afford ).

They listed the Tatuaje 2012 with the Broadleaf. I like that version, reminded me of the TAA 2011/2012, but the Cojonu wasn't as balanced a profile as the TAA versions. I actually preferred the Sumatra. I was trying to figure out how to take a poll on this site as to which of the 2012 Cojonu's people liked the best.

Also I think the people who have had LATs and like them will be safe, don't think it will be #1. As I would find it hard for CA to put Pete in the top 10 twice.

I agree that the Melanio is the likely number one. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I thought the Romeo was just awful.. I can't understand how that one made the list at all.

Flor de las Antillas is number 1???? Alright CA whatever you say

Totally unexpected. That said, I have one in the humi and have never tried it, so I think I know what I'm smoking soon!

Wow, didn't see that one coming. Of course I didn't see the whole Romeo thing coming either.

Hmmmm guess I'm smoking one tonight. Hopefully before the price goes up.

I already have a box of these resting that I got a while back, although I'm not sure it's the same size. I think it's a nice smoke... maybe not #1 cigar of the year though.

Funny, this was actually one I listed in the worst cigar of the year thread, although I'd probably classify it as biggest disappointment as it wasn't horrible, just a big disappointment considering how much I love a lot of the stuff that comes from that factory.

Another year, another list.

Completely didn't see that one coming. Congratz to the Garcia's and their team.

Big congrats to Jaime, Pepin, Janny and the whole My Father Factory. Like most, I never would have guessed that one. 2 years in a row they have come out of left field with the #1.

It's an interesting choice. Definitely a good smoke, top 25 sure, the best smoke of 2012, I personally say not. My Father deserves recognition, they make excellent cigars.

Ooooo...hurt me.

So, you think this cigar is the best of the year, do you?
