As a newbie, I tried to write down every stick I had in 2021 and ended up with about 250-300 (I know, Rookie). For each I gave a rating. I ended up with about 50 cigars that I gave a rating of 90 or above. If you could, list a few, five or ten of your favorites so I can keep a lookout for them. As you know, I only have about 50,000 more to try at this point.

FAVORITE CIGARS FOR 2021
Trinidad Fundadores (BSM Nov 19) 100
DT&T Sin Compromiso Seleccion Intrepido , 100
Ashton VSG 98
Roma Craft CroMagnon Aquitaine 96
Arturo Fuente Anejo 95
Southern Draw Kudzu, 95
Tatuaje, Monster Mash, Creature 95
Viaje Cache 95

Thanks, Joe
 
I started writing down my cigars in 2021, but that fell by the wayside after a few months. I can't in good conscience include any of the cigars that Bill sent me, because they are unobtanium for mere mortals like us. Rest assured, though, that I only had one stick that he sent that I was disappointed in; all the rest were phenomenal. I'm not sure of box codes for most of these, but suffice it to say they were mostly all '19-'21.

CC
-RyJ Churchill Tubo
-H. Upmann Half Corona
-BBF
-JL1 from the BPIF

NC
-Warped La Flor de Valle (don't remember the vitola)
-Guardian of the Farm Nightwatch Orpheus
-Ashton VSG Robusto
-Diamond Crown Robusto (admittedly, this had some age on it before I received it)

Then there were the always solid hitters, like RASS, Mag 54, PLPC, JL2, Street Tacos, Pepin Blue Generosos, and many others that I'm sure I'm forgetting.
 
I like Nick started 2021 strong with recording every cigar. Then I let a few slip through, then I just stopped. After the A-Lister trip to Wichita I have recorded every cigar I've smoked since then. I don't do a great job of reviewing them all but I at least assign a score out of 100 and keep the band. I'll go through that tonight and list mine soon.
 
1. Plasencia Alma Fuerte Robustus
2. Pledge Prequel from E.P. Carrillo
3. Ashton VSG Sorcerer
4. La Aroma de Cuba Pasion Churchill
5. Oliva Serie V Melanio Maduro Churchill

The standouts in the past year's rotation have been:

There were a couple others in samplers that blew my mind, but I forgot to write them down. 😕
