At this point in my road to enlightenment I'm not sure I could distinguish an expensive cigar from a $5 stick. One my palate develops, maybe the price would be worth it to try one, but I don't see a box in my future.
I just purchased two at that price point the other day at the B&M sponsored Drew Estate event. those two will be going away for a while while I smoke the less expensive ones to determine where my taste lies.

Well all, I lit up my 15th Anniversary today. I had picked up the darker of the two wrappers, the torpedo shape. Draw was a tad looser than I would have thought but it burned really well. However flavor wise it didn't do much for me. Not one that DogRockets would buy again.
I lit up my all-time favorite cigar right after it - the Tat 2012 Cojonu Broadleaf. Now that cigar made my take off my pants and run around a bit. So freaking good!

I asked my local cigar monger about it and he told me to save $10 and smoke the 10 Year Anni, which is a great cigar. I doubt I’ll ever try the 15 Year. However, I also purchased the 2012 Cojonu Habano and can’t wait to smoke it. I’d like to try all three versions.

To me the 15th and 10th Anniversary were nothing alike. Now in saying that, I didn't like the 10th so I've only had 2 or 3 and that was years ago. But I remember the 10th being very peppery. The 15th was much smoother in that regard. But flavor profile of both are not for me.
I don't recall if I've had the Habano in the 2012 Cojonu series or not. I have a Sumatra around here somewhere I think to try at some point. But I've burned through many, many of the Broadleaf version. That MUST be paired with either a Café Au Lait or a iced, sweetened coffee with some cream. The combination of those two is out of this world. I actually refuse to smoke that cigar if I don't have either of those items.

That Tatty 12 Broadie is a damn fine smoke. When I hit a lick, I might buy a couple more.....
