    Default A Man On A Mission - Join Me If You Dare

    Cigar Aficionado 2015 Top 25. I think it will be interesting and along the way have some good smokes I would have otherwise not tried.

    I'm sure you are right concerning financial interests and other factors. I'm on a simple quest to smoke the list.

    Sad, but true - a well known fact. The list is affected by financial influences...

    However - while there are some doggone good smokes on that list, to CC's point - don't give into the hype. Smoke what you like - there are a LOT of great cigars that are NOT on that list!

    It sounds like a fun plan to me, regardless. Like collecting patches in boy scouts, or West Point brass. You could make a picture frame with the bands.

    Now that's a cool idea for the man cave or bar!

    :) The picture frame idea sounds good.

    Absolutely true! I'm aware the list "is what it is". I'm just going to have fun with it and smoke some sticks I may never have tried.
