Just wondering how many knifeknuts also enjoy cigars.

Do you? If you do, what's your favorite, or what are your top three cigars?

I'll start.

My favorite cigar is the Paul Garmirian Symphony 20.

Others I like are the Punch Gran Puro and Punch Rare Corojo. Also enjoy all the Padrons.

How about you?
 
I'm more of a pipe guy, but I do enjoy a good Avo or Monte Cristo. When I'm fishing and I'm not smoking a pipe I like to stop by the tobacco shop and pick up a few small Acid cigars.
 
I smoke cigars very very very occasionally. currently in my humi are:
Montecristo A
Montecristo Petit Edmundo
Montecristo No. 4
5x Montexristo No. 3
Partagas Serie P No. 2
Bolivar Tubos No. 2
Punch Punch
H. Upmann Coronas Major
 
The answer is yes, but only if you throw in some fine whiskey, i.e. Jack, George, or Jim! I must be too redneck to understand the brandy thing. My favorite is the Rocky Patel Vintage 1999 Connecticut Churchill. Just about anything from A. Fuente comes in second. I'm not a cigar snob and third place and my favorite EDS (smoke) are the #59 Factory Throwout bundles. These are Lonsdale seconds from the Fuente factory and may have slight color or surface imperfections. Same tobacco/wrapper and smoke/taste the same as some of Arturo's finest, to me. Catch them when they're running the free shipping deal at Tampa Humidor's website and you can't beat them for under a buck a smoke!
 
I haven't smoked for awhile but I love Punch Rothschild Double Maduro.
 
Love my cigars:)
Olor Rothchild
Padron 2000
Fonseca series F Robusto
all yummy sticks
 
I havent had a cigar in a while, but I have a humidor packed with Cubans, that I will be smoking this spring and summer.

I really like the Cuaba Salomon, and the Cohiba Siglo VI
My favorite drink pairing is a glass of Port, but a scotch, bourbon, beer or really anything is fine.
 
Mayorga Robusto (a real bargain for a fine cigar)
El Rey Del Mundo Robusto Larga
And the seconds bundles that JR Tobacco sells under the Consuegra brand name.
I believe the #30's that I like are Punch Robustos
Really good for about $2 each.

I smoked 'em for a number of years. My favorite was a Hoya de Monterey Rothchild.
I enjoyed them, but gave them up, wanting to stop poisoning myself and don't
miss them now (never smoked cigs or anything else.) Especially enjoyable while
mowing the lawn.
 
Ah. I love cigars -- until about a year ago, when I moved from Texas to Pennsylvania, the cigar store on the ground floor of the building where I had my office was my home away from home.

One of my personal favorites is the Arturo Fuente maduro Hemmingway. I like the signature size, but frequently the only size I can find are the Works of Art. The natural Hemmingway line is also a fall back when I can't get the maduros.

The Oliva V is, imo, one of the all time best deals around. A couple of years ago it was given a 94 rating by Cigar Aficionado magazine, and it sells for around $7.00 -- how can you beat that?

Who doesn't like a Padron Anniversario? I prefer the 1926 to the 1964, but both or excellent, if relatively expensive, cigars.

Two other regulars on my list are the Hoya de Monterrery Excaliber (prefer maduro) and the La Flor Dominicana El Jocko or the La Flor Dominicana Cabnet line.

And finally the latest addition to my list of favorites: the Kinky Friedman Big Richard.
 
I typicaly only smoke cigars in the fall, same with drinking wine. When it first starts getting colder out. I like to pour myself a glass of red wine, grab a good cigar and head out to the back porch and enjoy the evening.
I like the following cigars, but will smoke what ever, flavor of the month.
Punch Punch
CHURCHILL MADURO
Flavor of the month
 
Daily... Padron, esp. the 7000's. Camacho Titan, AF Canones, plus maybe 6 or 7 others I rotate through periodically. Special days... AF God of Fire, Padron 1964 Aniv.
 
I'm a huge fan of the Partagas Serie P #2, as well as the Serie D #4. But for more readily available smokes I enjoy Padron's, Tatuaje's, and Cabaiguan (also by Pete from Tatuaje).
