Cigar of the year 2011

Definitely in the top 10 for me would be, in no particular order:

EP Carillo New Wave Connecticut - created a small renaissance of Connecticut wrapped cigars.
Quesada Seleccion de Espana - these are a great medium-bodied cigar.
San Cristobal de Los Habanos Mercaderes - This LCDH cigar blew my mind in the last year.
Tatuaje La Casita Criollo - Pete gambled and won with this one. Interesting cigar.
 
The two that really caught my attention this year were.........

Tatuaje Petit Lancero - Lots of flavor for such a skinny RG.
My Father Limited Edition 2011 Edicion Limitada Toro - They all smoked like a dream until they entered a sick period.
 
Last night I smoked a Tatuaje Barklay Rex and now I understand why people went so crazy for this stick. It was amazing! I was also blown away by the La Reloba Sumatra Torpedo and the Tat Wolfman as well.
 
I don't know if it was released in 2011, but I just smoked an Illusione Holy Lance maduro that was outstanding, the DE Undercrown was great, as were the Kristoff maduro lancero.

My box of Padron Londres Natties I bought a couple years ago and haven't dug into yet. Smoked my first one out of the box before the new year, and I'd have to say, damn.

Meh, I'm a simple man. :)
 
I would have to say my cigar of the year would be the LFD Chisel Maduro that I had while sitting my backyard with my dad and my uncle. My dad had an A.F. 858, and my uncle just had a gin and tonic (as he doesn't smoke anymore).

The ones I really enjoyed was the Undercrown, Opus xXx, My Father LE2010, My Father Puff Edition,
 
As I wrote this list I surprised myself...

1. Bolivar Corona Extra

2. Casa Magna Limited Edition Domus Magnus

3. Quesada Seleccion Espana

4. Partagas Serie P No. 1

5. Tatuaje La Casita Criollo

6. Padron Serie 1926 No. 6

7. Nat Sherman Bench

8. Tatuaje Petit Cazadores Reserva

I prefer Top 8...
