That's a hard choice. I'd go with the Illusione. I'm really digging those right now.

I havent Had either, but I do love cigar dilemmas because in the end you always end up winning

Good luck with your choice !

If you are at the point where you are not sure either about what you love or what you should try, I'd go with some samplers or maybe fivers. Chances are even though all of these are good cigars, unless you plan on smoking the entire box within the next month or so, it will end up sitting around while you try other things. Remember that tastes change and it's easy to end up with a humidor full of good cigars that are just not what you want to be smoking right now.

If you are getting into aging, I'd say go for it, but again, try to put down some fivers as you may not like in a year what you like now.

You had to go and post there were 2008 El T's still available didn't ya......

Thats my vote

 

[SkinsFanLarry]

......yea, roll the bones:yes:

Gosh ... both #1 and #2 are great GREAT cigars. (I'd go for the 2008 over 2009, though, as imvho the El Ts are a lot better with age).

I am assuming you're had both of these, right? If not--there are plenty of guys here who can trade you a couple of each to try first (including myself), and I'd highly recommend doing that first, since a blind full-box purchase--even on the recommendation of cool guys like us--isn't the best idea ever.

I like all, but would get the 2009 El Tris about $50 cheaper elsewhere and let them sit for awhile.

 

[theribdoctor]

i'm a huge fan of #1.

 

[kafreeman]

MJ12's!

 

[SCHAZZ]

Illusione you can't go wrong with but a 2008 Triunfador would be the choice of the 3

Wise advice.

I just bought #2 and I love those cigars. You can't really go wrong with any of them though.
