Wow factor cgars - cigars that unexpectedly hit the spot!

[NoDogRocketsBro]

I am sure this is old news to most of you, but I just smoked my first Padilla Achilles Edicion Especial and it 'wowed me'. What a great smoke!

Once in a while, you light up and are 'wowed' by a cigar. I was just wondering what cigars have 'wowed' my BOTL brothers the first time you fired one up.


All the best,
BT :usaflag:

I smoked 2 cigars yesterday.

Tat PTL
EP. C Short Run

both, wowed me.

 

[bdc30]

Padron '26, Tat Black, PSD4 would be the first couple that come to mind

Theres only one link there home slice.

I am not sure that I ever really smoked a cigar that was "surprisingly" good, I would have to think about it for a bit. I cant really pick a Tat, Illusione or Padron because I expect them to be great. I could tell you a lot of cigars I was let down by though.

Ha, what about the thread we are on? What math skills are they teaching kids these days.

thanks for answering though

Had a Liga Privada No. 9 Robusto the other night and was totally blown away. I need to find more like yesterday.

I had a cigar give me a "happy ending" once. That was a nice surprise.

 

[NoDogRocketsBro]

RP Missile corojo - It got me a little dizzy but nothing close to a 'Happy Ending' dammit!

LMAO! Hilarious bro!

recently smoked my first Pinar Del Rio Oscuro... not was I was expecting but still pretty good.

 

[Jetexas]

The Boris was/is a freaking knock out. I wish I had more. Also the 601 Red and Green robusto's...

After thinking about it, I expected the Outlaw would be a good cigar, but it was much better than I anticipated. My first one did "wow" me I guess.

 

[VillageIdiot]

90 Miles. Very surprising.

 

[JPManning]

First cc I had with age on it, a Fonseca Cosacos, about 3-4 years I believe....it wowed me. It's supposed to be a light stick and it kicked my butt after smoking tar sticks (LFDs, Tats, Padrons) before that.

 

[SmokeMyDog]

My #1wow was a Opusx 2005 Double robusto

 

[njstone]

For me, it doesn't get more "WOW!" than:

Tatuaje Verocu East/West Side
Tatuaje Boris
Tatuaje Black (OG)
Liga Privada T-52
Liga Privada #9
PAM '26
PAM '64
LFD Air Bender
Anejo
Opus X

A couple more I'd add are possibly a little less "wow" because I smoke them all the time, but they still always amaze me:

Perdomo ESV
Padilla 1932
Tatuaje Havana VI (esp. Victorias)
DPG Black
RP Vintage '92
R&J Viejo

Im my short years of smoking I have been caught off guard by El Mejor Emerald! Not that expensive not even flashy, but it was damn good!
