Hogman’s Top Ten of 2011 I Smoked…
First let me start by wishing everyone a Merry Christmas and hope you and your family have the best holiday possible.
Well it’s that time of the year were us blogger’s all come out with our Top Ten list and I am no different except my Top Ten isn’t based on the cigar coming out this year it’s based on the Ten best I smoked this year. So without further ado here we go.
These cigars that have made my top ten are all cigars that I have either reviewed or not but have smoked more than my share and continue to bring me the same great experience over and over.
Don’t forget also leave a comment on all our reviews this week and be entered to win some great prizes below:
1-Vanecian Humidor
1-Colibri cutter
1-Single flame torch lighter
1- Leather cigar case
15- Variety of fine cigars
Thanks to Eastcoastcigars and Badgercigarden for these great giveaways.
Number 10: Panacea White Corojo
Number 9: Rodrigo Boutique Blend G5
Number 8: San Latano Oval
Number 7: Tatuaje La Casita Criolla
Number 6: Tatuaje Conjonu 2012
Number 5: Drew Estates Under Crown
Number 4: Quesada Oktoberfest
Number 3: Cromagnon
Number 2: Opus X Lost City
And now with no surprise to those who follow me, there in my opinion still isn’t a cigar being produced better than this.
NUMBER 1: Illusione Epernay Le Monde

The reason I look forward to these various Top lists is that I hope that my own separate selections/choices show up such that they validate my favorites; but also that these Top lists entice me to go out and try something on the list I had not considered.
Cigars I personally liked on this list are:
San Lotano Oval and the Quesada Ocktoberfest
Cigars on this list I now very curious to try are:
Tatauje Coronju
Tatuaje La Casita
Illusione Epernay
So thank you for making me go out and buy MORE cigars I have NO room for!!!!!

Nice list! I like the San Lotano and have an Epernay in my humidor calling my name!

Nice! I loved the Undercrown, Oval, and CroMagnon, and have a Rodrigo sitting in my humidor, but haven’t had a chance to try any of the others. Thanks for all the great work, and Merry Christmas to everyone at Mike’s Stogies!

Not surprised at all on #1. I am surprised I haven’t tried some of your top 10. I apparently have a lot of catching up to do. The oktoberfest is one I never had but plan to change that. Thanks for all the reviews this year. Keep ‘em coming.

Nice list and I will keep this as reference on my next purchases.
Merry Christmas to you and yours!

I can’t argue with any of these. I’m glad to see the Panacea make your list. I’m a fan of all their blends, especially the Red Label. Happy Holidays!
