I love Brooks' site and the work he puts into his reviews, and with his top 10 list on the heels of CA's, let's be the peanut gallery on the SmokingStogie Top 10 list as well. :)

10. Illusione Singulare
9. E.P. Carillo Short Run
8. Cain F Lancero
7. Tatuaje Petit Cazzy Reserva
6. 601 RPM EL 2010

Loved the Short Run (especially if you factor in value); liked (but didn't love) the Petite Cazzy Reserva; haven't tried the Cain or 601; and didn't care for the Illusione Singulare (bland).

What say you?

Ive only had the Illusione and thought it was OK.
Quite dry if I remember, but it could have been the day.

But from what I hear all things Cain are lousy!

The Cain F Lancero is MILES above anything else in the line, IMHO...not even on the same plane of existence :)

Sadly, it is an event only release at the moment (like the Tat Black Robusto was, you can only get them when you go to events and buy boxes etc)...

The short run is excellent. I enjoyed the Petit Cazzy when I first bought my cab but am finding myself liking them less and less each time I smoke them. I really enjoyed the Singulare and found it very flavorful but can understand how the mild body can throw people off. Haven't smoked the other 2 but have been told by some people whose taste I trust the Cain Lancero is fantastic.

The Cain F lance I have been looking to try. The Tat black robos have smoked many. Anyone want to do a trade for a Cain F for a Tat robo LMK. Enjoy the Singular very much and haven't tried the EPC 2010 yet. The others I dug but I've heard very good things about the 2010.

I strongly agree with 4 of the 5....and the only reason I can't agree on all five is that I have yet to try the 601.

Very nice list so far Brooksie! :thumbsup:
