Favourite Morning ISOM Smoke

[Newfie]

Let's assume you're sitting with a morning Americano at a resort in Cuba, that had a cigar shop with decent stock, what would be your choice for a smoke?

ERDM Choix Supreme hands down!

How about a Boli CE and some of those fresh ground local coffee beans.

ERDM lunch club, Trini reyes or PLPC. All damn fine with a cup-o-joe. (IMO)

 

[tigger]

Ditto on the Choix Supreme.

I'd grab a nice Monte A.

I had a Hoyo Du Prince '98 on the way to the PACNW herf last year with a cup of Killer Beans that was unreal. I also enjoy Monte 4s a lot with coffee.

A Ramon Allones Small Club Corona, A Cohiba Siglo I, A PLPC....any would do in a pinch..... :thumbs:

Cheers - B.B.S.

Whatever I am in the mood for. Some mornings I want a gentle friend to accompany my morning reverie (ERdM Lunch Club, Quai D'Orsay Coronas Claro, Bolivar Lonsdale). Other mornings, I want a firecracker of an eye-opener to accompany a strong coffee (Partagas Shorts, Trinidad Reyes, Cuaba Divinos). And other times, I want something long and complex that I can work on with a good book (Partagas SdC 2, ERdM Grandes de Espana, LGC MdO 3).

IMO, it's a bit of a fallacy that there is such a thing, in general, as a "morning" cigar.

I've never been in the mood for anything strong or spicey in the morning personally, so I guess like most things, it comes down to personal preference.

For me it would have to be the PLPC. Alex gave me one from a 2000 box and it was fanfukintastic.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the San Cristobal - El Principe.
This a great little cigar with a strong cup of coffee.

I haven't smoke more than 5 or 6 different Types of ISOM but the Monte Cristo #2 would be a wonderful choice to go along side a fresh cup of Kona coffee.

Hoyo De Monterey Petit Robusto. nice and small for a great commute smoke.

That's my thoughts exactly. My tastes between morning and evening are exactly opposite. Many of the suggested smokes, I've never have the pleasure, which is why I asked. But the Reyes, while I love 'em as an evening smoke, I don't think I'd enjoy in the morning first thing.

Satch, a Monte A?? Jeez dude, that's a smoke to take you past lunch!!! :laugh:

Thanks all for the responses, appreciate it!!!

ERDM PC is my favorite but I also enjoy a Siglo II, SLR PC, QdO Coronas or ERDM Panatelas Largas.

 

[Stogieflame]

Montecristo...anysize

 

[FlyFish]

Can we stop typing "ISOM"? It's so juvenile. Just say "Cuban", it's only one more letter!

Sorry, it's a pet peeve.


Mine for AM is the Trinidad Reyes. Seems to balance quite nicely with a cup or two of coffee.

 

[mmburtch]

A mature Boli PC or a cohiba lancero would suit me just fine.
