Worse, it will also take you 12 years.

My 2013 JL2s are really picking up. I was lukewarm on them initially, but they are coming around.

Good taste TW.
Has been my 1st or 2nd favorite robusto for about the last 12 years. They need at least 2-3 years to shine IMO.

My favorite cigar is any cigar smoked in peace with a friend. Yes I have not found my favorite yet, but I can tell one thing, there is something about a Camaroon that makes me go MMMMMmmm.

I smoked my first Fuente a few nights back thanks to Mad Spackler. I hunted the cigar down on the Fuente web page and it looks like it was a Cameroon as well. I could be wrong. Fuentes are not marked. Dark small Grand Reserva with the funny tit on it. The lit end starts with the tit and then the cigar gets large and slowly tapers towards the mouth end.

Definitely box worthy.Herfing

I got a box of JL2 a couple of years ago and they did not last very long at all.

Just got some punch punch today.

PS do any of you old timers have a box of something classic with a FEB14 box date? I need to get one soon to commemorate my daughters birth last year. I have some candelas that you might be interested in.

Yes they look like the short story. Do they come in a light and dark wrapper too? Think I have one of each. gave the lighter wrapper one to Dale who takes care of us when we are deployed.

Probably a short story, they come in natural and maduro, though the maduros can be tough to find.

Though I do like short stories, I was replying to #10

if you like short stories, I suggest Poe's Telltale Heart or Woody Allen's The Whore of MENSA

Srry had post all messes up...I was thinking about the work of art cigar.I almost bout today instead got the short story...Now as far as Poe ...been to his house in Baltimore .He is a dark,dark guy for sure ...Woody Allen I have no care for at all..Honestly never got much of his humor other than possibly severe drug or alcohol addiction????

Too many to list honestly but 1 that is always on my list near the top is Anejo 46. I like some cc but I can't say they are overall favorites for me.

For me, to qualify as a favorite, I factor availability and price so I'd have to say Padron 64 natural. However, the best cigar I've ever had was a Tatuaje from knokmdwn. It came unbanded but I think ray said it was an old cojonu 09.

I'm down to my last few of the 06 tubos. Really quality sticks, especially the ones with the dark red wrappers.

Quite young in my "serious" cigar smoking career but after some thought these past few days, I'd have to go with AF Anejo #46.

Should be interesting to revisit this next year to see if my pick is still the same. Think

Did you ever have to make up your mind?
You pick up on one and leave the other one behind
It's not often easy and not often kind
Did you ever have to make up your mind?
Did you ever have to finally decide?
And say yes to one and let the other one ride
There's so many changes and tears you must hide
Did you ever have to finally decide?
Sometimes there's one with deep blue eyes, cute as a bunny
With hair down to here and plenty of money
And just when you think she's that one in the world
Your heart gets stolen by some mousy little girl
And then you know you better make up your mind
And pick up on one and leave the other one behind
It's not often easy and not often kind
Did you ever have to make up your mind?
