stunod Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 One viola only..... For me robusto and PE robusto. Great variety to choose from , my favorite smoke happens to be there , the Monte PE , and the prices are right in my wheel house .
Mr.T Posted March 20, 2015 Posted March 20, 2015 Choices, choices....a close call between the Mag 46 and Siglo IV. But, at the end of the day I would go with the Siglo IV. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
GernBlansten Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 I'm with you, Rob. It's a perfect size for me time and flavor wise. Hard to go wrong with any you had on that list. I'd put it at a 1a, 1b rating for me on the RA-Sups and the Mag 46. Wish the RA's would come in SLB 25s or better yet 50s!!!
earthson Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 While I understand that corona gordas are meant to represent a happy medium between coronas and robustos, I'd rather have a PC or a robusto and not something in the middle. With that, HU Mag46 gets my vote. And I wish every brand had a Laguito 1/2 and a Panetela.
gcman68 Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 More of a recent appreciation but Corona Gorda Mag 46 is my favorite right now. Might have to try to get a few of the others I haven't tried. If there ever is a Corona Gorda sampler I would be all over it!
saintsmokealot Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Siglo IV by far my favorite. I voted corona gorda but robusto is a very close second.
CdnLimitada Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 I was in between the corona gorda (SLR-A) and the Genios. Love both sizes. Love me a Sig VI
zrotfus Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 More of a recent appreciation but Corona Gorda Mag 46 is my favorite right now. Might have to try to get a few of the others I haven't tried. If there ever is a Corona Gorda sampler I would be all over it! Here here! Only had the RA Superiores myself (which was excellent) and have some Mag 46 on the way but I would love a corona gorda sampler. As for vitola, right now it's all half corona/petit corona/minutos. Rarely have time for anything else at the moment. Bouncing between Upmann HCs, Boli PCs, Trinidad Reyes. Just got my Party shorts in the mail yesterday and have some RASCC coming to diversify the rotation.
bigbwalls Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 I went with the Punch Punch as I can't stop smoking them. It's also the only cigar where I bought a box -- smoked a couple -- and then bought another box immediately. As for cigar sizes, I went with the robusto. Whenever I try out a new blend I always gravitate towards that size.
RijkdeGooier Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 No choice here. I enjoy the full spectrum of viola's too much, from a casual Perla with my morning coffee to a specially chosen Julieta No.2 after dinner 1
hogg Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 While I understand that corona gordas are meant to represent a happy medium between coronas and robustos, I'd rather have a PC or a robusto and not something in the middle. With that, HU Mag46 gets my vote. And I wish every brand had a Laguito 1/2 and a Panetela. Me too. Size wise pc has always been my favorite, robusto my second. But my mouth waters when i think of mag46s. It's probably the only cg in my top ten. Another few years of pp the way they were last year and it might creep into my top ten. Over the years my desert island cigar has changed. Might be the blends, might be my tastes, but the last few years it has been brc. Used to be hupc, before that bpc.
Colt45 Posted March 22, 2015 Posted March 22, 2015 Tough calls on both questions. I love the corona gorda - push comes to shove, the Upmann Magnum 46, followed closely by the Hoyo Epicure No.1. Formats.... Love the churchill, corona gorda, dalia, cervantes, carlotas, parejos.... Perhaps the corona might be the ultimate format.
earthson Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Me too. Size wise pc has always been my favorite, robusto my second. But my mouth waters when i think of mag46s. It's probably the only cg in my top ten. Another few years of pp the way they were last year and it might creep into my top ten. Over the years my desert island cigar has changed. Might be the blends, might be my tastes, but the last few years it has been brc. Used to be hupc, before that bpc. My desert island humidor might be half HUPC and half everything else. pp = PL Panetelas?
cigarbreak Posted March 24, 2015 Posted March 24, 2015 Haven't had the chance to try all those CG's but from ones I have, I enjoy the Mag 46 the most. As for vitola I voted 52+ rg. Though DC's were a close second. 1
Vortigan Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Well I'm tempted to call Robusto on the vitola - but that means I'll never smoke a Mag 46 or a BBF again .... And I can't call CG or Beli because that means I'll never have another D4,RASS or BRC.... Noooo don't make me do it!!.......
FLB03TT Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Mag.46 with Siglo IV a close second. Robusto and Corona Gorda in a dead heat. Can't decide, however voted Robusto, just a lot more good Robustos to choose from.
Cohiba007 Posted March 25, 2015 Posted March 25, 2015 Im with Studon. I smoke more PE's than anything. And I love PSD4, RASS, JL2 and occasional CoRos
AlanB Posted March 26, 2015 Posted March 26, 2015 Noob Alert! I am new to Habanos and my inventory is only 6 boxes D4's Mag 46 Partagas 898 RJ short churchills Siglo VI HDM Epicure 2 The D4 was an instant favorite it was the first cigar I ever smoked to the nub, I roached it with my neddle nose pliers! So I have to remain loyal to robustos, they always seem to fit my time constraints, they get right down to business. I save larger vitolas for when I have the time to enjoy, which is not often. All my boxes are 14 box codes and I know I should sit on them for a while but its friggin killing me!!!! I guess it would be wise to have several boxes of your go to's in reserve so you are always rotating your stock.
sighuber Posted March 27, 2015 Posted March 27, 2015 Mag 46 followed closely by aged Sig IV Corona Gorda would be my viola of choice followed by Beli
GasGuy82 Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 Love my corona/corona gordas. My favorite NC was a cg and one of my first cc acquisitions was a box of Mag 46 (GEO ABR14). I do have some love for the robustos, especially RASS and JL2. Never tried a CoRo, maybe it would sway my opinion?
Yagermeister Posted March 28, 2015 Posted March 28, 2015 CG is definitely my favorite vitola. Just feels right in the hand. But I like variety, so I had to go with Robusto. Have to have a box each of Boli RC, RASS, Connie 1, CoRo, HdM2, RyJ Ex4, Regios, and occasionally, BHK52 on hand at all times. Love the recent Punch Punch and Superiores. Last time I tried a Mag46 it was light and unimpressive. Maybe I should revisit them?
sw15825 Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 My regulars are Slr A and JL1. Love a good Siglo 4 though. And cried to lose RS 11. Then Superiores. So no I can't pick one. CG and Robustos are my go to vitolas.
teamrandr Posted April 2, 2015 Posted April 2, 2015 I really like the Punch Punch. Also if I could only have one vitola Id have to go robusto.
