There seems to be a "Top 25" for everything these days, so at Cigar.com we thought it only appropriate that we
offer our opinion on "Best of the Best" in the cigar world. There will be no complex algorithms to rate cigars
here, folks. Our equation is much simpler and less scientific. When we rated our top picks for 2009, our panel
included five of our best consultants, a cold November weekend, a keg of Yuengling, spirits galore, and of
course...hundreds of premium cigars. A grueling task, yes, but someone had to do it. By the final hour, we found
ourselves hidden among a waist-high pile of burning nubs and empty scotch bottles, while Tim huddled in the
corner begging for us to end the madness. But we soldiered on, knowing our customers would be eager to get our
feedback on those blends that made the grade in 2009. Did your favorite make the cut?
Cigar.com Awards: Mild
5 Vegas Gold
Features an extremely reasonable everyday low price which encompasses a variety of sizes ensuring all cigar fans
can enjoy 5 Vegas Gold. Hand-rolled under the supervision of Nestor Plasencia in Danli, Honduras and features a
mild, yet flavorful blend of fillers that create a smooth, earthy finish. Expect expert construction with an
even burn and effortless draw. With a crumbling economy, you can invest in this piece of gold and be assured an
amazing return.
Rocky Patel Signature
Blended to Rocky Patel's exacting standards with tobaccos so limited that fewer than
1,000 boxes are produced annually. Creamy and smooth with a mild core of nutty, toasty
aromas. Keeps your interest with many competing nuances and aromas with each progressive
puff, even when you're three sheets to the wind.
Chateau Real
A mild, traditional cigar from the makers of ACID, some of the most innovative
blends in the industry. This balanced beauty encompasses a range of traditional
toasty flavors with smooth hints of cedar. A proven contender consistent in
flavor and strength every time, even when you're knee deep in the sauce.

Rocky Patel Signature Toro, and Chateau Real Gran Templar. These smokes
are great any time of day and can be had at an exceptional value!
