Re: Eternal Favourites?

Looking back on my cigar-smoking career to date -- and rooting around
my odds-and-ends humidor -- I realise that I do not appear to have a
single "eternal favourite", no one cigar which has always made my
regular rotation year in, year out.  Over the years, my preferences
have switched from light to heavy smokes, from one country to another,
from EMS to maduro and back, from smaller to larger, and from fatter
to thinner cigars and back -- sometimes repeatedly.  I have had
periods when I went for strength, and times when I hunted certain
flavours, but throughout all this, no one cigar managed to hold my
regard.  Is there such a beast out there at all?  Am I alone in this
inconstancy?  I am not asking for the perfect cigar -- we all know
that there is no such thing -- but for an "Old Faithful", a smoke
utterly reliable, consistent and always at least acceptably enjoyable.
What say ye?
