Cigars of the Year
I haven't had a cigar in a couple weeks thanks to work and now a cold. When I don't get to smoke for a while I spend a lot of time looking at cigars on the internets. It got me thinking, the end of the year will be here before you know it. So will all the Cigar of the Year lists. What are some of the best cigars you guys and gals smoked this year? It doesn't have to be new release. Use whatever criteria you want, list however many you want.
Sadly, I haven't smoked a ton of cigars this year. I think 1/3rd of my total consumption was at the Orgy. So here's what I got, in no particular order:
Aroma De Cuba Mi Amor Magnifico
Opus x 20th Celebration Father and Son
Fuente Casa Cuba Divine Inspiration
Fuente Magnum R 44
From the Dark Side:
Romeo Short Churchill from 2007
Bolivar #2 Tubo from 2008
Ramon Allones Small Club Corona
Behike 52 smoked in Don's honor.

La Colmena
The Late Hour
BLTC Morphine
Las Cavaleras 2017
Tat K222
Only ever had the one, but the AF Don Carlos EOtS was fantastic

Oh man... memory isn't my strong suit, but if I had to pick some that stood out of the one I tried for the first time I would pick:
CAO Pilon - in robusto only. The Churchills have done nothing but disappoint.
HVC Cerro and Master Mason - were a rally nice surprise.
Caldwell Blind Man's Bluf - Robusto.
Alec Bradly Coyol - Lancero
Pappy Van Winkle - some sort of slender Toro.

Took a while to be certain,
Some good ones, Cuban and non Cuban to choose from, but none were really "that" close to this cigar.

Bump - would like to see some more Bum choices!

Best one of I smoked all year was an AF Añejo 46 that I'd been sitting on for a couple years. But then I doubt I smoked a dozen cigars all year, probably more like half that. Usually if I want to smoke something I reach for a pipe.

Headly Grange LAncero 17
Roma Craft Wunderlust
Tatuaje 2013 Verite
Camacho Ecuador BxP

Tabernacle and Mi Querida have been my favorite new smokes this year. Tabernacle is the best new smoke I've had in a long time. Very well done.
I've been wanting to try the Wise Man Maduro as well, but haven't gotten around to it.

Since the CA list is coming out, I figured I'd bump this. Looks like the top 10 are out now and the rest tomorrow. Just my 2 cents, 1-4 are all awesome, can't argue with them. 5 can be awesome. 7-8 are really good. But I can't say I've had 6, 9 or 10. The Fuente/Padron/Oliva 1-2-3 doesn't surprise me considering all that happened in 2017 but at least they are cigars worthy of the spots. What do you guys think?
