The best cigar in your box...

Hard question.
It used to be a '70 Parti Du Con #3 (from Justin) but I had to smoke it. What's the point in having it if you don't smoke it.

Now...... Perhaps an Opus Chilli Pepper from 2007 (nc)
Don Carlos Anni's (2) (nc)

CC I am not too sure...
 
screw that. If someone sends you a cremosa, it's a punishment, not a gift. smoke the opus.

:r well yeah, I was just trying to make the point that I enjoy sticks gifted by fellow BOTLs/SOTLs more than sticks that I've bought for myself - heck most of the time I enjoy buying sticks for fellow BOTL/SOTLs more than I enjoy buying them for myself - just my :2
 
I've been thinking about doing a thread like this for a while. It gives us a reason to revisit that cigar we've been hiding from view for all this time right before the 4th.

What is the best cigar (In your opinion) in your humidor and why haven't you smoked it yet?

I'll start. A Monte "A". I bought it on vacation in '97 and always said I would smoke it at my wedding. My wedding came and it was too big of a smoke and I was pretty tipsy, so I smoked a smaller cigar. Kind of glad I didn't smoke it then. Haven't found the right moment (2 1/2 hours) to smoke it since.
Thankfully I was able to break out of this place you are describing mentally, yesterday I took the long road home form work and burned my last Dunhill, and probably the last one I'd ever own. Why? Because it was Monday, wait too long for the proper occasion and the only thing you can be sure of is that cigar gets sold at your estate auction.
 
partagas cc's my son bought me a whole box while he was in afgahnistan, those are my most special. but i also have some JL Salazar y Hermanos that are VERY tasty...but nothing exotic
 
Right now there are 4 that are the best. The 80th anniversary Padron and the Partagas Lusitania CC that Vin gave me Saturday. He sucks! I told him I wouldn't take any smokes from him and then he starts waving these in my face..... Also the La Riqueza that Bao handed me (been wanting to try one of those) and the Monte 4 that stearns gave me that he picked up in London. Both given to me that same day. They're all the best because they were personally handed to me. (There were a bunch more given to me but those are the standouts) - Thanks guys for the special smokes.
 
I have no idea...but nothing in my cooler or humidors are as cool as the two dried up COHIBOs I have. :D
