Cigars to buy before you die

[jibjob79]

Happened to be browsing the local discount book store and while always on the look out for something cigar related i found the following book



and low and behold it recommended buying a Partagas D4.



It also recommended a Cohiba Double Corona and some vintage aged stock from Dunhills and Davidoffs.

While obviously not the most specialised cigar publication i think the suggestion for joe public is probably spot on.

For myself on my cigar to buy list eventually would probably be some Cohiba Behikes or a Grand Reserve and maybe some really nice aged stock.

So do you think the book advice is good for joe public and have you bought all the cigars types you want before you plan on kicking the bucket or do you have anything on your wish list?

I have some of them.
I guess the problem (a nice one to have) is that there are so many out there to try, it'll take me a lifetime to refine the list.

A great man (I think it was 'G') said: 'Price does not dictate taste'.
So true.
Just because some of them cost a fortune, it doesn't mean (IMHO) that they're the 'best'.
S'all a matter of taste.

As for me?
Well, you can keep your hand-made, (grown in a swamp, watered by monkeys tears) extra-fine, mega-costly chocolate. . . I'll take a 'Star Bar' or some 'Peanut-Butter' M&M's' to my grave. . . thank you very much!

Looks pretty good for Joe Public to me. It lists the right places to find the stogies you might want to buy if money wasn't any object and the Grim was hounding your footsteps.

Possibly it tells them something about Dunhill Estupendos or RyJ Celestiales Finos, I can't see because the print's too small.

But for myself. Nothing quite so glamourous. A box of well-aged Trinidad Funadores would do.

The man's got class. . . I've always said so!

I would love to own a box of Behike 56's, and hopefully will. I would also love to own a box of each of the Tatuaje monster series, and a box of flying pigs (I have a box of dirty rats on the way ). I would also like some of the rarer Viaje cigars

Oooh, lucky man!

I would like some behike 56's as well, more because of the hype I think but they do sound good.

Also the CAO Sopranos would be high on my list, again probably because of the hype. Last one that comes to mind would be a Fuente Opus X.

Never had a Partagas D4 so that would be the most obvious.

I have found that I have enjoyed a lot of lesser brands that many turn their noses up at so it is always difficult to say what I would most like. As El Cat paraphrased, the price does not sway me as I have preferred alot of NC's that were relatively cheap compared to some CC's that I have just not enjoyed, and paid a small fortune for.

Sopranos are good cigars, I also enjoy Fuentes, had quite a few over in Florida. A lot of the lesser NC's are great cigars

I smoked a friend's PSD4 yesterday afternoon, and boy was it great! Going to have to put those on the "to-buy" list! Not a big fan of Cohiba though, haven't found any that I like enough to justify a box of. I totally agree with the vintage cigars tho...

A Behike, not one of the 52,54 or 56, but an original Behike.

Lee, what is the Viaje?

[Smallclub]

and low and behold it recommended buying a Partagas D4.

Actually it reads "Partagas Reserva Serie D4": a much rarer and more expensive cigar? and much better than a regular D4 IMHO.

[Big_T_UK]

I thought it sucked! Jimmeh did not care for it so much he gave his second one away to Monkey66. I must try it again, it cannot have been that disappointing a release.

Cigars to BUY?
I'm worried that at the rate I keep buying them, I won't be able to SMOKE them all before I die.
