certainly the monte V or the partagas series S after diner with a cappuccino is by far the best. second best is the first of the day, a relight of the cigar i left in the ash tray the night before. nice and crisp, with a chunk of charcol on the foot and the newly dried part that i chewed on the night before. like finding out your friend slept over.

Early cigars are a previously unbanded cigar that now goes by the name Don Felo. Small smoke with lots of smooth toasted nut flavor and lots of smoke. Also enjoy a nicaraguan robusto with a connecticut shade wrapper. Very interesting combo. After dinner I have been having the Baccarat Churchill or Beli in Maduro (which is almost oscuro). They have been a nice change of pace. Very woody, mellow with a nice sweetness. Bought one on a whim and now I'm hooked. I also like the Onyx Reserve Robusto, Romeo y Julieta Churchill and almost anything from Villazon.

Thats a tough one since I smoke different cigars most days. (I usually only have two a day unless I am down at the beach).

One that I turn to time and time again is the Partagas #10 Churchill. However, I am currently trying one of these Padron Maduro Churchills I got on auction here in a five pack.

A little bitter to start, but I am liking the way it is morphing as I smoke it down. I still think I like my #10s better, but we shall see. :o)

I am washing it down with a pint of Boddington's Pub Ale in the Draught Flow can, poured into an English style pint glass of course! :o)

...my favorite morning cigar is any Partagas, especially a maduro, smoked with a cup of strong coffee. I've dropped back to two a day...on wife's orders...and break out the better smokes on the weekend. Enjoyed a Arturto Fuente Hemingway by the pool this afternoon with a Modela Negra...and you wonder why sugar cane and tobacco grow in the same countries.

Rick, you know what our problem is? Neither of us can possibly know when the other is being serious. Of course, we may have OTHER problems . . .

When I wrote churchie I only meant churchill. If there is a cigar size called churchie, I never heard of it. Sort of like writing maddie for maduro, robbie for robusto, figgie for figurado, or Billy for ex-President Adam Henry.

Hard to pick two favorites for any one day, but if I had to here goes: Midmorning a LaGloria Cubana Serie R and evening a Montecristo #2 ISOM (No I do not have a supply of them, this is a "nice too" post) but I also have an afternooner and that would vary according to mood, etc!!! Fun to dream! Charlie

I prefer my nooner to be wrapped in silk or completely UNwrapped ...

oh, wait ... we're talking cigars here, aren't we?? ... well, most of mine come wrapped in cellophane, but I like to unwrap those before putting them to bed too ...

The one on the deck at sunset (brand varies by day, today it will be a CAO Cameroon Toro). The day is done, good conversation with my wife, the dog playing in the yard, the good smoke- life is good.

davey, why not take that aged 1972 blueberry tippelet stash out of the freezer. Just hope that the plastic tips haven't cracked.
Just the thing with a glass of mogen david at the end of the day

I'm with you the CAO Brazilia and the "O" are both two of my favorites... would smoke them everyday if I could afford them all of the time instead of once or twice a week...

I'd have to say a CAO Brazilia Amazon, and then finish it off with a Perdomo Reserve X Maduro. And a nice glass of Macallan 12yr or Makers Mark to enjoy with them.
