Fabulous Cigars

Post by Old Bridge »

Some have been mentioned in the threads, but I thought it would be good to collect the members favourite cigars in a thread of their own.
I'll start with my own two favourites.
Montecristo no.2
Partagas serie P no.2
They are both "torpedoes" and lovely fulfilling smokes that last a good while.

Montecristo #2 is excellent. Partagas Lusitania also, as are Partagas D.

I stopped two years ago.

Cohiba Limited edition 2006.
67 minutes of sheer pleasure. A gift from a very good friend some years ago. It has languished in my humidor just waiting for me starting my holidays 2017, and tonight it was finally put out of its misery.
Joined by a small glass of Highland Park NAS Cs on the terrace, it made the flickering sunshine through the aspen magic.
Thank you VBH.

Good to hear I still have a couple of these in the humidor. How long do you think they will hold?

Mine was, as I said, lovely. I think they have many years in them yet.
ps: If you are worried, then try one.

I stopped smoking cigars 2⅓ years ago. Before when, Partagas Lusitania.

On second thought I think they are well passed it, but I quite like old cigars, so you can send them to me if you want.

My dad’s cigar of choice for 30 years or so was a Romeo y Julieta No.2. I can still smell it when the right memories are evoked and it is one of the few Cuban cigars that I have enjoyed myself.
