I used to mainly smoke Macanudo's and 5 Vegas. Now I've been mostly smoking Tatuajes, Illusiones, any Nicaraguan tobacco. Along with the occasional Opus.

As an update to this thread, I was able to smoke a Fuente 8-5-8 natural thanks to Andy who hooked me up at last weeks Barn Herf. :thumbup Turns out I really enjoyed the smoke. To be honest I had pretty low expectations but I did enjoy the flavors it put out, especially the turns it took from the 2nd half down. I'd highly recommend revisiting some of your old flings, you just might find there is still a spark.

Started out smoking a lot of Onyx Reserves and now I just don't get the enjoyment that I used to.

I used to smoke a lot of Anejos and Opus. I stocked up and kinda gave up on the chase after a while. I'll have one or so a year, but I've moved on to the dark side.

10 years ago or so I liked Macanudos. When first getting back into the hobsession (about 3 yrs) I tried tons of stuff and really liked Gurhka Doble Maduros and Coronado by La Flor. Don't care for Macanudos anymore and haven't had a Doble Maduro in years, but I still enjoy an occasional Coronado.
Cool thread.

I used to smoke lots of these back in the day. I still have a few, but they're just not the same. I smoked hemmingways, Ashton aged maduros and la Gloria cubanas. Things have changed.

Like some of the other folks, I smokes maduros almost exclusively at first.
Unlike some of those above, I've never tried a Macanudo, though I've surely smoked a lot worse.

I know that it can't be possible that in 3 pages of reply's I'm going to be the first to say ACID's exclusively. Roam's, Kuba's, Atom Maduro's, Blondie's, Wafe's, One's and 5's. I had no interest in traditional cigars for the first couple few months that I began smoking. I still have a 100 count humi with nothing but ACID in it...at least 60-70 sticks. The last time I smoked one, I had finished it fairly early, around 9:30PM or so. Since I was gonna be up for a while, I grabbed a VSG Enchantment out of the humi. After the Kuba Deluxe...I couldn't taste the VSG and was so pissed that I haven't smoked an ACID since.

I used to really like the Punch Rothschild and HdM Excalibur #1 Naturals and neither really hold much interest for me anymore. I still like the Excalibur Maduros and the Punch Gran Puros but I don't even smoke those very frequently and the originals have lost there touch for me.

CI buying addiction transfers to an addiction to flavor profiles once you hit the slope and learn the nasal exhale.
