Favourite cigar of 2025

[mcdee]

What was your stand out smoke of 2025?

I'm nominating this Partagas Lusitania (from 2019) that I smoked back in October as my most memorable.

Tough one....
I had a JL Adriatico last night that blew everything out of the water. Even better than my Cohiba PE on Xmas Day (I save them for Xmas Day). I really shouldn't hang on to them TBH..... Lovely but not in any way worth the new asking price

Also, the recent German Dip is fantastic.

Regular production.... I'd say Dip No2 have been yowza!

In no particular order for me are...

CAO Brazilia Samba
CAO Amazon Basin
Arturo Fuente Don Carlos No3
Juan Lopez No1

Not been overly impressed with Cubans, but my current stock doesn't have much/any age on them.

If only allowed one, it'd be the Amazon Basin

One that comes to me is the Monsdale unfortunately. Unfortunately because it's a one off

There are a few others that were great too.

PXL_20250622_155837645~2.jpg With our daughter being born in July and our house being completely gutted to add another floor, it's been a tough year for cigar experiences.

My favourite would have to go to the Punch Ireland regional that I smoked at the event in Dublin. Unfortunately with the prices it looks like it may be the only one I ever get to enjoy!

Terrible picture but I think this La Opulencia from My Father was my best of the year. I'm probably smoking 5 NCs to every Cuban these days and My Father have become a staple for me. This line in particular.

I'm commending the Romeo y Julieta Wide Churchill. For a general brand I've been enjoying Don Tomas.
