Here is one...a Fuente Hemingway Untold Story from 2014.  Rarely have time for these big boys but it is indeed special.  Figured Bama/LSU was as good a time as any.

 Well here is one entry

The cigar is a very rare 2007 Camacho Liberty given to me by the very enabler who inspired this contest. So I thought very fitting.  Had it for a number of years, always looking for the perfect occasion.  Had it scheduled for my daughter's wedding in over two years ago, ended up smoking another cigar.

My choice for a cigar was the Davidoff Year of the DOG. I got this cigar in an amazing deal from a fellow Geek, but I won’t RAT him out. I wasn’t sure if I should attempt this fighting a cold and being a little HORSE.  As I SNAKEd thru the house out to my usual smoking spot, all the time Eye of the TIGER playing in my head.  Rather than MONKEY around with worrying about pre-light traditions I jumped right in.  But I wanted to be careful not to hot bOX it.

 After it was all done I thought about lighting second but didn’t want to be a PIG.  Is this cigar the GOAT, who knows?  I was only hoping this smoke would DRAGON as long as possible. If you have not smoked one then I can only go back to a line from a John Wayne movie as ROOSTER Cogburn “I can do nothing for you, son.”

In the Special Occasions 3.0 pass, I picked up a seriously aged Zinp Platinum 10 Salomon... I figured it'd be a good special occasion cigar but I'm burning it tonight.





I'd rather have a cigar...

I was saving my last Quai d'Orsay Imperiales (discontinued) from a 2006 box for a special occasion to smoke on a long, warm day since its a 2+ hour smoke.  Rather, here I am today smoking it in 23 degrees for no good reason other than I felt like it!   :smoker:

I totally agree with the premise of your contest Brian. More smoking, less hoarding. This cigar is special to me cuz I'm a Camacho whore, it's a Liberty, and they ain't never gonna make any more.

The second law chases us all.
In most realms, tranquility comes from ownership.
Order ensues when everyone totes their own water.  
Stand firm, and never let the bastards grind you down.  
Life's arc is primarily charted between ones ears.
Good judgment comes from experience, and a lot of that comes from bad judgment.
Heaven is where the police are British, the lovers French, the mechanics German, the chefs Italian, and it is all organized by the Swiss.
Hell is where the police are German, the lovers Swiss, the mechanics French, the chefs British, and it is all organized by the Italians.
Be Sunny ¦ Stay Frosty.

Excellent, all of you. It's cool to see some of the cigars that are being hoarded.
