Fumadoro Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 You live in a future dystopian world where Habanos S.A. lets you have access to unlimited regular production cigars from every current marca. The only catch is that you can only choose one cigar from each. Faced with this conundrum, what are your choices? You can pick one form every marca, but no more, or you can avoid any marcas all together.Mine are... Bolivar - Petit Coronas, Cohiba - Lancero, Diplomaticos - No.2 , ERDM - Choix Supreme, H. Upp - Mag 50, HDM - des Dieux, JLP - Cazadores, Juan Lopez - Petit Coronas, LGC - MdO No.2, Monte - Especial No.1, Party - 8-9-8, Por Larry - Montecarlos, Ramon Allones - Specially Selected, RyJ - Exhibicion No.4, SLR - Regios, San Cristobal - El Principe, Trini - Fundadores, VR - Famosos 2
torsion Posted June 24, 2015 Posted June 24, 2015 I like the sound of this thread but not qualified enough to partake as I've not smoked all marcas listed or even enough vitolas to make an informed decision! Bottom line - I should and will try more over time! 1
Fumadoro Posted June 24, 2015 Author Posted June 24, 2015 I like the sound of this thread but not qualified enough to partake as I've not smoked all marcas listed or even enough vitolas to make an informed decision! Bottom line - I should and will try more over time! I can totally understand your position, as I'm not some grand expert myself. I'm just hoping this becomes a fun exercise, especially for our more seasoned members!

I will compile everyone's responses and make a few charts and graphs and make a new post with the same title, just with "[RESULTS]" in the front. 2
dflan82 Posted June 25, 2015 Posted June 25, 2015 Great topic Fumadoro...looking forward to your "Results" post as well My first instinct was to just put down my favorite from each marca, but then I had to go back and factor in overall vitola selection...after all there are times when can't have a two hour cigar and then times when you NEED a 2 hour cigar Anyway here's my list: Bolivar - Coronas Gigantes Cohiba - Lanceros Cuaba - Distinguidos Diplomaticos - No. 2 Hoyo - Des Dieux H Upmann - Sir Winston Juan Lopez - Seleccion 2 LGC - Medaille d'or Nr 2 Monte - Number 2 Partagas - 898 Por Larragnaga - Petit Corona Punch - DC Quai D'orsay - Coronas Rafael Gonzalez - Perlas Ramon Allones - RASS Rey Del Mundo - Choix Supreme RYJ - Churchill SLR - Serie A San Cristobal - Principe Sancho Panza - Molinos (Non Plus once Molinos dry up) Trinidad - Fundadores Vegas Robaina - Famosos

Fumadoro Posted June 26, 2015 Author Posted June 26, 2015 That would be an amazing piece of work if you did. Oh, it will happen as long as we have enough responses to make it feel like a good sample.
spizz Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 This is an excellent thread Fumadoro count me as a +1 looking forward to your results. Also a good way to maybe try something I may not have yet wanted to try. 1
