I had an awesome Opus X on NYE... man I love that smoke. My other personal favs are any Davidoff, Diamond Crown, Graycliffe Crystal and Partagus #10.

Wow, I had one with my brother in law on new years. Don't know what it was, but it was pretty good.

It's hard to beat a good smoke and some hot jazz.

I like to breathe.
I like to keep my breath, hair, clothes, and general person from smelling like an ashtray.

I tried to like cigars but, because of the above reasons, I just couldn't.

I used to smoke quite a bit (but not much anymore), when I worked in a smoke shop for about a year. The Opus X is nice and the Partagus #10 is excellent. Davidoff is okay, but the Zinos (especially the #3 and #4s) were some of my favorites. The Romeo and Julietas were another favorite. There were a bunch of others I really liked too, but I can't remember what they were at the moment.

I like the Avo Maduro #7s. I like plenty of other cigars too, but find myself going back to this one alot.

i tried to quit cigarettes once by smoking cigars, thinking that getting used to not inhaling smoke would wean me off of cigarettes completely.

i inhaled the cigar smoke.

You know, this is one brand I've never tried. I need to rectify this immediately.

Pound for pound, I think Arturo Fuente churchills are the best. Esp. considering they're only about $4.60 a piece.

is there a :noshit: emoticon?

Ah yes... I scored some cuban Romeo y Julietas while in the Bahamas last year. Great smokes. I found that Montecristo makes the best cuban... way better than Cohiba (at least in the mid-price range.
