What is your go to brand?

Padron (1964)
Tatuaje (Brown band)
Fuente (Anejo/OpusX/Don Carlos)

Also Aging Room (Nicaragua) is becoming close to a go to as well.

P.S.

I have also tried numerous Oliva’s and have tried to like them, but for some reason, they just don’t do anything for me.
I have tried a number of different Olivia's and they don't do it for me either.
 
My go to smoke for over a decade now has been the San Cristobal Fabuloso. Everything I look for in cigar, perfect nearly every time.

Others in regular rotation here are My Father The Judge, Tatuaje Verocu, Ashton Symmetry & VSG, Illusione Ultra, and of course any Opus X or God of Fire I can get my hands on. 😏

I would have never guessed that considering if you search "San Cristobal Fabuloso" into Google, your post come in something like the top four results. 😂

P.S. Holy Tiddies!

 
First off, I am not a greatly experienced cigar smoker nor do I have a tremendous budget. I also have some health issues don't allow me to smoke as much as I would like. However, with that said; I do greatly enjoy my smokes.
 
#1 Overall favorite for me hands down is Arturo Fuente. Love the regular Opus X line, a couple of the Rare Pink vitolas & the Anejo's.
#2 Selected Tobacco's "Byron" line maduro's (go figure) and their Atabey Black Ritos
#3 Ashton ESG & VSG (still Fuente Family)
#4 Liga Privada T52, No 9 & Feral Pig

I have tried most sticks from Padron, and I still cannot see what all the fuss is about. I keep trying, but not one has knocked my socks off, or have I really actually enjoyed until I recently had a Family Reserve 45 natural. It was surprisingly good! I am usually a maduro guy so I tried the 45 Maduro, meh. I've tried the 46, 80, 50, etc, etc. Letting some 45 naturals rest in the humidor and will see if it was a fluke or I actually like ONE Padron! UPDATE: 6 months later, not impressed with the 45 natural. Got a couple boxes to age and 6 months has not done anything noticeable. Will let them rest longer and see if it helps. Guessing I am just not a Padron guy.

OMG! There's a blast from the past I'd completely forgotten about! 🤣
