    found it odd to be honest, but i have never had a Royal so i don't want to judge without smoking. Never saw the desire to pay for a $10 patel.

    #2 prediction --- orange swisher
  • Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 5,408
    Any guesses for #1? I don't subscribe, so I'm not hip to the big spenders on CA advertising and therefore don't have an educated guess.

    I hate to ask but would someone shoot me a PM and tell me what this is?

    A Camacho, maybe the Ecuador or Double Shock.

    More a biased guess than educated ;-)

    Bingo! It all comes down to who ever forked up the most $$$

    I have 3 guesses for the #1 spot. MF, LFD and Oliva.
  • Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 6,993
    MF and Oliva have won, so they won't get it, it will be someone who hasn't. LFd makes sense, chisel maybe since the Cameroon scored high last year. I can't remember any LFd scoring high this year though.

    Think of a notable blender that hadn't got it... Pete is always pissed, so he might. Maybe something from DE since they Just merged...like the Norteno.

    Could see that and would like to see a Tatuaje or Crowned Heads get it. The Leccia Luchador would be cool too.

    I'm going with punch D'oro

    I was thinking the Norteno also. Haven't smoked one, but they are out in all of the B&Ms i go to, get rave reviews, and are part of DE's new offerings. When i was getting CA for free i used to see the swisher premium brands all of the mag and the Casino Gold got a 92+ rating. it would make sense.

    I don't know that Crowned Heads has enough of a presence in that mag to get it really. I mean, they typically get it to one of the big shots every year. Ernesto could be the guy. Pete sure talks mad *** every year after it though, which is why I could see him, but it would also be giving it to DPG again in two years. He may be blacklisting himself because of it. Leccia is to new, even though he was with Studio Tabac, and he just changed companies, which means his lines will change and they are all being blown out.

    Yeah I would not be surprised, they get no love in CA, but that merger will change things if you ask me. Willie has been in the game long enough to deserve the accolade, even if his blends have changed in nature since moving to DE.

    illusione at number 3.

    not sure if they are big spenders at CA, but i can see why it would be #3 if they werent. thats actually a good smoke. not #3 material for me, but still quite good.

    These ratings are always fun to see, just like when Rolling Stone drops their annual "100 best guitarists ever" turd. Fanboys argue, but really, Hendrix is the best and nothing will ever change that.

    Honestly, I can get on that bandwagon. I don't know about best because I haven't tried many of the others, but I love the Melanio. It's probably the prettiest cigar on the market that I've seen, too. But didn't it come out last year?
  • Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 2,711
    Really good cigar. Top smoke of 2014? Not by a long shot in my opinion, but a good safe choice by CA.

    +1, agree with all of this.

    enjoyed every melanio i've had but putting it ahead of some of the others on the list (ESG and HdM for example) ehhhhh dunno about that.

    looking forward to seeing the other annual "top cigar" lists when they come out.
