Best of 2008

The only cigar I've had this year that was extremely good and also might be one that not everyone has tried would have to be the La Flor Dominicana Cameroon Cabinet. This is a blend that is somewhat limited in its production because it is made at a small factory and the attention to quality is superb, therefor it is at times hard to come by and that might make it a cigar that flies a bit below the radar. It is very good however, and I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a good cigar at a fairly reasonable price.

I should also say that, thanks to you two, I've had the opportunity to try the LFD Cam Cab (and have 2 more), and have some GoF's resting in the humi.

My best of the year without a doubt is the Gurkha Shaggy Natural Torpedo! I'm sure there are others that I really liked but this particular cigar stands out infront of all others for me!

Urby, I have a few of those CI purples sitting, first one I had wasn't that great, kept burning out, probably do to the cold. And those GOF's are pretty good.

And those GOF's are pretty good.

No doubt. I probably won't try one until spring, so the weather doesn't interfere with the experience.

No kidding. I've almost got my garage cleaned out so maybe when I get that done and put some heaters in there I can get some good smoking done..

Way to go Jorge.

Ahem...Jose you mean? Jorge might be the go-to guy now, but there would be no Padron without Jose working his tail off to create a cigar company true to his heritage. Oh, and if you couldn't tell, I am a bit of a Padron fan.
