I agree (as so often) with Simon JG, it's an impossible choice. I have tried 200 + different Cuban vitolas & rarely smoke more than 4 0r 5 of the same stix a yr (the beniefit of having a large aging collection). But for the sake of the game (certianly better than deleting a cigar) I'll go for the Esplendosis. I'll chose this one coz it's my non El/RE special smoke for Birthday & celibrations & what I chose to smoke on the day I caught my first twenty pound pike. It's always a special moment to cut & light an Espi' pour a suitable malt (always whiskey for me with Cohibas) & kick back & savour every dammn expensive puff. One a more normal playing field I would go for the Monte No2, very consistant these days & always feels like an occasion when holding & smoking one. For an lunch time/mid afternoon smoke Hoyo Epi No2.

+1 so far. I am quite prepared to have my mind changed!

Mind changing isn't allowed. Well, at least not untill the end of November!

I can't believe I've unearthed TJ's debut Post .... I thought he was Jurassic!

Ah, the days when he posted sense and/or about cigars. It was a terrible day when he had 'that' accident with an enchilada. He's never been the same since.

As for the thread. I'm not biting. I don't have a favourite - it's all dependent upon the mood. Sentimentally it would possibly be the ERdM PC - but I wouldn't call it my favourite (as in go to/best).

[Soulmanure]

I couldn't pick one just yet,
but I'd give nods to the Monte 2, Cohiba Robusto, and the Partagas SD4.

[tippexx]

Oh for God's sake... will you people stop going on about how much things cost!!!
I say, leave the Cohiba LE Sublimes and be damned!

OK ..... PENDING ..... a Unanimous MOD decision. Is that fair enough?

MODs your help is required please.

[El Catador]

I've omitted RE's and EL's because the premiums put them a little outside the pocket range of some of us and it levels the playing field a bit.

Greetings UKF,

This is my first post at this forum and I'm pleased to announce that I agree with both Robusto and Cohibo VI - my two favorite CCs are the Siglo VI and the CoRo, respectively. That is, of course, unless I have access to the Cohiba Sublime EL 04, which is my ultimate go-to cigar when the moment warrants the best.

I can't believe I've unearthed TJ's debut Post .... I thought he was Jurassic!

Anyway, the thread's Cuban favourite list is currently:-

Cohiba Siglo II x 1
Cohiba Siglo IV x 2
Cohiba Siglo VI x 1
Cohiba Robustos x 1
Cohiba Esplendidos x 1
Cohiba Sublime EL 04 x 1 (TJ Corro)
Cuaba Distinguidos x 1
H.Upmann Mag. 50 LE 05 x 1 (Ryan)
Montecristo No2 x 1
Ramon Allones Specially Selected x 1


So I was thinking maybe we could use this idea (in the same way we voted to get rid of a Cuban Brand) this to discover the overall Forum favourite PRODUCTION Cuban cigar. I've omitted RE's and EL's because the premiums put them a little outside the pocket range of some of us and it levels the playing field a bit.

To which I have deleted Ryan and TJ's LE's listings, (Ryan and TJ can now vote again) and added mine. So the list now looks:-


Cohiba Siglo II x 1
Cohiba Siglo IV x 2
Cohiba Siglo VI x 1
Cohiba Robustos x 1
Cohiba Esplendidos x 1
Cuaba Distinguidos x 1
Montecristo No2 x 1
Ramon Allones Specially Selected x 1
Trinidad Reyes x 1


Simply copy and paste the list and add a new cigar as I've done or add 1 to the total of a cigar already in the list.

One vote per Forum Member only.

The result should be interesting. And if enough people pick-up on the thread maybe a kind Mod re-head it.

the Cohiba Reserva Selection is fantastic, whichever vitola you try from the box.

I've always had my eye on that box Ramon. One of my HK places has the set for about $640. Hefty price now that the Pound is worth shit I have a single corona especiales that was gifted to me but as it's the only one I have, I can't bring myself to smoke it

[cohibaIV]

Looovvvveeee the SigloVI but can't live without the IV
