Tim, was interrupted on my list. In addition to CAO's I never met a Fuente I didn't like, especially the hemingway's, also try the Padromo reserves, especially like the Rodsado for something tasty but not as strong as the CAO LAX

My picks are:

Avo

Bucanero

CAO

Davidoff

Flor de Oliva

I like Indian Tabac and Montecristo.

I hate to limit it to five, but here goes (with the understanding that the five may very well change from day to day):

1. Perdomo

2. Torano

3. Avo

4. CAO

5. Gurkha (esp. the Centurian Double 😵

My preferences change all the time. Currently my regular (not necessarily top shelf) but the ones I reach for daily are:

Perdomo2 (and F.R.Wheels)

5 Vegas

CAO Maduro

AVO XO

Macanudo Robusto

I would love to toss out a whole line of premiums, but reality dictates my preferences to run towards my every day line-up. Hey...I can get most of these at $1 to $3 a stick.

Strange how everybody seems to crave the FFOX's, but they didn't seem to make any of the lists... Except Hog...

Here's mine, no particular order...

For all,who like me, can't afford the super-premiums

1.Indian Tabac

2.Flor de Oliva - Grand Maduro & Grand Cameroon

3.Maria Mancini

4.Mayorga

5.La Finca

Since the poll stated "brands", I'll go with:

Padron

Bolivar

Torano

Montecristo

CAO

Each of these "brands" has cigars in their line that are great. There are other brands that also have cigars in their line that are among my favorites, but I selected these five in particular because they have nothing but top-notch cigars in their line IMHO...
