Favorite Cigar?

[fMf Piper]

I have

My go-to cigar has been, for more than 50 years, the Arturo Fuente 8-5-8.

I always look at the 8-5-8 when I am at my local B&M, especially the maduro, but I have yet to buy one. I may have to pick up one of the naturals, and one of the maduros to try. Which do you prefer?

fMf Piper, I like them both, but usually smoke the natural.
The Sun Grown is very good, too.

10 years ago i moved about 2 miles from two cigar shops and started smoking cigars, now I smoke 10 cigars to every bowl of pipe tobacco.
My favorite is Liga Privada #9

For me lately it’s been Dunbarton sobremesa solita sticks with the occasional Ezra Zion mixed in.

I'm not sure I have  a favorite overall but one of my overall favorites is Liga Privada T52.

Are those that good, whenever I’m near that section the #9 always wins out?

Partagas and H Upmann were my everyday cigars, as I smoked them at work when I was a truck driver. It seems like a dream, but I could carry several full boxes in the truck. Now that's history. It's impossible now; they're no longer sold in Spain. You didn't have to store large quantities at home, you just went into the tobacco shop's humidor room and took several boxes of fresh tobacco with an incredible aroma. At the time, I didn't know that the world of Cuban tobacco was about to be wiped out in Spain. I liked the short H Upmann, very practical for quick smokes at work, without leaving it half-finished.

The #9 is excellent as well but the T52 is more complex. It, to me, is a better "occasion" cigar.

I haven't made my way all the way around the Cigar world yet, but in the last 6 months or so I've enjoyed a lot of good Cigars. So far my favorite has been Padron. The 1926 is about the best thing ever, the 1964 is good, and then anything in the 000s series. The Damaso #12, is an excellent Cigar. But after making my way through the Padron line up it became very clear, lol I can't afford these. So my yard burner is anything from Aladino. I've had just about their whole line up, they burn straight, draw good and taste great. I like the Classic Robusto the best. I like Robusto size Cigars in general. Perfect size for me. Pipe Tobacco it's Haunted Bookshop and Riverboat Gambler all day everyday.

As someone who used to smoke Cuban cigars but no longer, I have found three brands with natural wrappers (non Maduro) that work for me:
1. Oliva V Melanio
2. La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero
3. Davidoff Nicaragua

All quite good and very Cuban in style.
