Oh, man... where's slim when you need him...

This could open up a big can of worms....the typical respsonse to questions like this is - it's all about what YOU like.... we all have our favorites. The PAM seems to be at the top of many people's lists....

If you have never smoked a super-premium, then dropping $20 bucks for a PAM '26 may (or may not) just end up being a disappointment...

we need more input (Number 5 alive!!!)

I'll let others comment...

I've met very few gars that I didn't like. How about a top pick from each of you and then I'll tally the results and go from there. Thanks.

Ok! Btw, congratulations!!!

I've got a PAM 1926 No. 1 that I'm saving for our first baby (no the baby isn't going to smoke it - I am...). I also have an Opus X Fuente Fuente (I mean I will soon...), Monte #4 (thank you Rasdas) and AF 8-5-8 SG (thank you Jay) waiting for a special day as well...

There are many good choices ... perhaps so many as to be confusing ... but, particularly when one considers "price performance", none, IMNSHO, are better than a PAM Torpedo (6 x 52)

Congrats, my friend. Great news. I'll be a father in the next couple of weeks (assuming the little dude cooperates). Exciting stuff.

A Padron Anniversary Series is perfect, to my mind. My recommendation is the 1926 #1. Smoke a long, luxurious cigar. Savor the moment for a couple of hours. I think you can't go wrong with a big Padron Anniv. cigar, frankly.

An Opux X Double Corona, if you can get your hands on one, would also be damn good. But second to the 1926 Padron #1, in my book.

Best wishes.

John

Congradulations! Smoke the best damn cigar you can get your hands on, the one you've been saving but have not dared to smoke.
