FLB03TT Posted February 15, 2017 Share Posted February 15, 2017 An '03 des Dieux I smoked about 4 years ago. Pure class and extraordinary complexity. Curiously, out of two cabs I have not had another that was equally transcendental. Don't quite get it, but I keep hoping to repeat with the remaining few sticks I have left. Runner-up- a Monte 2 on the beach in Cabo about 15 years ago. I bought it down there, legitimate goods, and it was remarkable. Have had hundreds since, some close, but none as good as thet one. When Monte 2s are on they are spectacular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philc2001 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 A lot of great cigars already covered. It's so hard to pick just one.I think the magic of a great cigar is that it hits you like a bolt of lightning when you aren't expecting it. Whether because the looks are deceiving, or because of origin, or just simply not expecting anything special, a great cigar makes you take pause and binds your senses in a straight jacket, demanding you focus on it.Such has been the case for me a few times in my 25+ years of experience. In no particular order;- Partagas Lusitanias- Punch Super Selection No. 2- El Rey Del Mundo Tainos- Partagas LonsdaleThere are more that stand out, but these hold a special place in my heart.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxcjs0101 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 While most of the best cigars people have are high ends or discontinued, mine was a Partagas Super Partagas which i had few years ago. Few puffs after i lit it up i stopped for a few seconds to adorn the band which was giving me the ultimate balance of spice and cream which i've been searching for since. Needless to say its like finding a needle in a haystack with the Super Partagas these days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErikB Posted January 30, 2018 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Either the first one (romeo no 2 in 1995) or the next one (vegueros tapados in a couple of minutes). Or perhaps the le Hoyo (I believe it was a des Dieux) we were given on the visit to Pinar del Rio during the 2012 festival. It had been a very early morning , a long bus ride (a long wait for the bus as well) and then after lunch the cigar was perfectVerzonden vanaf mijn iPhone met Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Projectal Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 2016 BCG ROTT. It was the first cigar that compelled me stop what I was doing and just enjoy the cigar. It also started me down the rabbit hole. I’ve probably had better cigars since, but I will ways remember that smoke. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
celtmick1984 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 A 2001 Cohiba Lancero. A good buddy from my law school days who got me into cigars smoked one at the same time and we were both blown away for two hours. Made me wish I had bought a box when I had the chance . . . .

MIKA27 Posted January 31, 2018 Share Posted January 31, 2018 WOW - Tough call to answer that question! If I had to pick, I would say without a doubt, Montecristo Serie D LE 2005. That thing of beauty was a salty/sweet stick of smooth chocolate. Damn I miss those!! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamehawker Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 A Cohiba Selección Reserva - Pirámide years ago. I am a falconer and had a stroke in January, 2002 (during open heart surgery for a valve replacement due to being born with a heart defect). I was not able to go out hawking for a few years but when I was out with my Redtail Hawk catching a squirrel for the first time after the stroke I smoked it to celebrate the occasion. I really did not fully appreciate it at that time and I wish I had another to smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
