Your best finds/disappointments of the past year

Last year (2002) I'd say that my best new cigar finds were: Puros Indios & Montecruz Negra Cubano. Very nice smokes and reasonably priced. One smoke that I had high hopes for but fell short for my taste was the JR Special Corona. How bout you folks? Best finds & disappointments.

Yeah, I really shouldn't list Partagas Black as worst.......it was simply the most disappointing
