Worst: any Tamboril "product" (I can't call them cigars); Best: Napa Reserve Canary Islands (Thanks Slim); Fave: varies based on mood, time of day, and what's available, but favorites include Puros Indios (these are a "Love 'em or hate 'em cigar), Aristoff Black (when you get a good one you wonder why they're discontinued), Sinatra My Way (for an easy, mild smoke), and FDO Grands.

BEST: that secret cigar they make in the Cohiba factory in Havana. I've never had one, but its still my favorite. (aren't 'best' and 'favorite' the same thing?) WORST: Any cigar from Nazi Germany. (I actually have 2 boxes. You can imagine the little Gestapo **** running around with them in their mouths.)

WORST: Tamboril, Te-Amo, Dom. Estates BEST: HdM ISOM, VSG, Perdomo Estate FAVORITE: HdM 1066, Excalibur, Padron. I haven't tried many "super premiums"(ie. Opus, PAM, CAO's etc...), so my "bests" are from a limited selection.

I put an acid in a small tupperware container with a humid stick. The acid started out dry, but sucked ALL THE MOISTURE from the humidstick. Amazing. It was soaked. We smoke this stuff? What's in them?

Worst: I've blocked them from my memory, but most cheap cigars I find are not worth the time. I'd rather smoke less often and smoke better cigars.
Best Ever: Aged ISOM Cohiba Esplendido
Favorites: CAO Cameroon Churchill and Toro, Perdomo Estate Selecion, Puros Indios, AF Don Carlos robustos (if they have sat a few months in the humi).

Well I just had my worst ever, Fidalgo Negro churchill. Wrapper black as coal because the taste WAS charcoal. So bad I threw the other four in the can. Wouldn't wish one on Osama. Best... Has to be El Rey Robusto Suprema, how a maduro should be. Favorite? I think this will end up being Oliva Grand Maduros, again a maduro that tastes like maduro. All this is net of taking out the island factor.
