Which of C.A.'s Top 25 of 2010 did you smoke?

[Cigar Cowboy]

The ones I have had are in Blue

#1 Cohiba Behike BHK 52 - (Cuban)
#2 Viaje Oro Reserva VOR no 5
#3 Opus Fuente Fuente XXX Belicoso
#4 Padron Family Reserve no 45 natural
#5 Camacho Corojo Churchill
#6 La Aroma De Cuba Mi Amor Magnifico#7 Illusione Epernay Le Matin
#8 E.P. Carrillo Elencos Edicion Limitada 2010
#9 H. Upmann No 2 (Cuban)
#10 LFD Air Bender Chisel
#11 Ambos Mundos No. 1 Grande
#12 Carlos Toraño Exodus 1959 50 Years Box Press
#13 Punch Grand Cru No. 2 Maduro
#14 A. Turrent Triple Play Belicoso
#15 C.A.O. La Traviata Divino
#16 My Father No. 2 Belicoso
#17 Brick House Robusto
#18 Oliva Serie V Maduro Especial
#19 Rocky Patel 15th Anniversary Toro
#20 Alec Bradley Prensado Gran Toro
#21 Partagas Lusitania – (Cuban)
#22 Montecristo Platinum Churchill Tube
#23 Ashton VSG Eclipse
#24 Casa Magna Colorado Churchill
#25 Aurora 1495 BME Dominicana

This is a very crappy list in my opinion. The fact the LG T-52 was not even in the Top #25, is the final nail in "C.A.'s Top 25" coffin as far as I am concerned.

 

[Jadawin]

Out of that list I have smoked:
Opus XXX
LADC Mi Amor
Epernay Le Matin
upmann no.2
La Traviata
MF Belicoso
Brickhouse Robusto
Oliva V Maduro
AB Prensado
Partagas Lusitania

I didnt smoke all of these in 2010. Ive had some of the cigars blends listed, just not the specific vitolas they rated.(like the VSG Eclipse, Air Bender Chisel and Camacho Corojo) I agree that the Liga Privada T52 not being listed is a joke.

 

[BagfullofPings]

I stopped worrying about the list a few years ago. For your question, I have smoked cigars made by most of these manufacturers. However, I don't know if I have smoked these exact cigars.

 

[kafreeman]

#5 Camacho Corojo Churchill
#7 Illusione Epernay Le Matin
#10 LFD Air Bender Chisel
#11 Ambos Mundos No. 1 Grande
#15 C.A.O. La Traviata Divino
#18 Oliva Serie V Maduro Especial
#24 Casa Magna Colorado Churchill

Not in those particular vitolas though.......

 

[SeanL]

Even the "budget" argument for some selections wears thin. There are some terrific cigars on the market for very reasonable prices, but the ones they picked that cater to said market niche make me wonder what they were thinking.

Also, I would have liked to have seen more Habanos represented in the top 25, especially considering a good number of people I've encountered have agreed that 2010 has been a decent year for Cuban cigars. Having said that, I am really looking forward to the box of H. Upmann No. 2 coming my way.

 

[BoSox55]

#1 Cohiba Behike BHK 52 - (Cuban) EXCELLENT
#6 La Aroma De Cuba Mi Amor Magnifico GREAT
#7 Illusione Epernay Le Matin GREAT
#21 Partagas Lusitania – (Cuban) EXCELLENT

Missing from the top 25 this year was the HdM Double Corona, RyJ Wide Churchill & LP Dirty Rat in my humble opinion

Let's see...

*scans list*

I didn't smoke a single one of those!

Do I win something?

 

[CWS]

20 out of 25. The five because it I did not want to smoke them.

 

[PLUSH]

I think #8, it was one of the 2010s.


Man, as much as I smoke I sure don't smoke a lot.

you win a free trip down to your B&M.

 

[strife]

7 out of the 25

I might not have smoked as many Chuck, but I am agreement about those I didn't want to smoke. This guy has asked me if I have ever smoked or offered me a Camacho for 3 months in row. Is he that obtuse or do I have to buy another locker to hide the body? :nono:

 

[gibbleguts]

Did really good on the top 10 had 9 of them. Only tried 4 from 11 to 25. There may be some good sticks in there but I don't have a b&m that carries most of them and prefer to buy boxes when I do order so don't take too many risks.
