And the #1 cigar on Cigar Aficionado 2011 list...

Don't get me wrong...the Alec Bradley Prensado is a good stick. But #1 of 2011?? No way in hell.

Me and a couple friends are a bit taken a back by the pick. It was leaked yesterday so it's been a hot topic with us. I was never impressed by the Prensado line but good for them I guess. I could probably rattle off an easy10-15 sticks off the top of my head that I think would be more fitting for the spot but than again I never put any weight into CA's scores or rankings. More or less just makes a good conversation piece.
What's even more surprising is the fact that none of the top 10 was a stick released in 2011.

this all day ^^^^

I would love to find the idiot that would take a Prensado over a FR 85th.

Weak choice CA.

I would agree with all of these statements...

I would go so far to say that the cigar he released this year, the Black Market, is a better than a Prensado Churchill.

To next years contestants: get your pocketbooks ready! Or if you're Padron, just make another awesome cigar.

The Prensado is by far my favorite of the AB cigars (most of which I'm not entirely fond of at all) and it is a good cigar, but I wouldn't say it's anywhere even close to #1. The Black Market I was surprised by and thought was a really nice cigar, but I still like the Prensado better.
