tie between festi mareva and 70s dunhill upmann 22. I tried really hard to put one in front of the other, but couldn't pick a winner. that undercrown thingy was cool as hell too, never thought i'd be able to retrohale a bundle of esteli ligero, but it was very pleasant

This is making me realize how little actual smoking I did!

Best cigar overall: Habanos 1994 that Dave had us try. These didn't do anything for me the first time I tried one (years ago), but they're slowly growing on me. Dave made a useful point with this too: How you smoke a cigar is as much part of the experience as the cigar itself.

Best cigar of mine: 1998 Partagas 8-9-8 Unvarnished that Icehog gave me back in January of '09. Picked it for my Saturday sunset cigar...first time I can recall trying an 8-9-8 UV. Wow...mindblowing. I did NOT want that cigar to end!
