    Default Your Favourite Cigar?

    Hey everyone...

    So what is your favourite cigar to smoke on a regular basis? Something you maybe smoke or purchase more often than others. For example NOT that amazing pre-embargo cuban you had one time.

    For me it is difficult to answer since I haven't really been this into cigars. When I wanted a nice cigar before it was usually a Romeo y Julieta. Now I am am discovering a whole new variety and trying to build up my cigar stash with a good mix. I would have to say I haven't yet found a favourite that I would smoke more regularly... though I have been leaning towards Arturo Fuente.. I had some Brevas Royal's I enjoyed very much.

    Other than that,I dont have a favorite.I like change and would get sick of any cigar I smoked more often than any other.
    It's variety for me.

    I have not been into cigars very long myself, but I had a Fuente Curly Head the other day that I liked alot, I could see myself buying those for an everyday cigar especially for the price.
    I have about 20 Quorum Toros to smoke when I don't have a better smoke on hand, but they are not the greatest tasting by far...

    I will be expanding my list of cigars smoked soon and I am sure I will find better ones, right now that's the only Fuente I have really tried. What would you recommend I try next?
    I have been just buying what ever I thought would be nice without having any real knowledge of how it would or should smoke and taste. Any suggestions as to what to try next are appreciated.

    I like the format that slc used.

    For my everyday smokes:
    5 Vegas Double Corona
    Padron 2000
    Black Peral Rojo Toro
    Carlos Torano Exodus 1959 Toro

    One step up each week:
    Oliva "O" Bold Omni or Ovation or Ole
    CAO Brazilia Lambada or any other
    AF Best Seller, Chateau Fuente (Regular and Sun Grown)
    RyJ Clemenceau Tubos
    5 Vegas Limitida '05

    I try to have something a little nicer once a week:
    Ashton Sun Grown (Any of these lovelies will do, currently, my favorite cigar line)
    AF Anejo Anything (only had one so far)
    Ashton Aged Maduro #40 (Toro Sized) (only had one so far)
    Opus X (only had one so far)
    La Aurora Preferidos (only had one so far)

    In between all that, I have a few other things in my humidor waiting to get smoked when the odd mood hits me:

    Trilogy "Old-School" Authentic Corojo (Did I mention that I currently love anything corojo?)
    Sancho Panza
    LGC Wavells

    Well, that's my entire smoking platform! You can find any of the above cigars in my humidor at any time.
