Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
NC broMy top 3 for the year would be:
1. Bolivar Short Robusto Asia RE 08
2. La Colmena Unico
3. Opus X Destino al Siglo Lance
Sorry, should have googled before I asked... got it.
Anyway.
1. La Imperiosa
2. LC 2015
3. (will probably be Tat, TAA 2015, plan to smoke it this weekend and that's all I have for 2015 releases)
No particular order here...We're most of the way through the year, so I thought it would be in interesting exercise to look back and see what your best smokes of 2015 have been so far.
As the year progresses, you can edit your response if other better cigars come along, but so far what have been your best non-Cuban cigars in 2015? Doesn't have to be a current year release, just looking for your top three smoked this year.
For it has been:
1. Warped La Hacienda Superiors - this one took me by surprise; I was expecting good, and it blew me away! Without a doubt the best NC I smoked this year so far.
2. Las Calaveras 2015 - which was also a stellar smoke, and had topped the list until La Hacienda came along
3. Bashert Flying Pig - I stopped chasing Ligas a while ago, but this was an unexpected gift from an old friend last year, smoked on my 10th anniversary. It could have just been the moment, or I could have just bought the hype, but it was one of the best sticks smoked this year.
Runners up are:
4. El Gueguense - frankly with some rest, this will likely become my #2 of the year behind the La Hacienda. The one I had had just arrived that afternoon, and I smoked it during a herf so it was a bit rushed.
5. Warped La Colmena / Caldwell Long Live the King - I can't decide between these two for the second runner up. Both were excellent.
So, what are your top 3 so far this year?
