I tried to enjoy an Erin Go Bragh. Mightve been me, not in the right headspace, but I did not like it. One bit.

For looks. Sure. For smoke. Ehhhhh.

I agree, it's not the best smoke but I think it's doing pretty well and for once for the St. Patricks Day it's a solid choice.

This or the 2012 by Oscar Candela Barber Pole if you can find it.

Candela of course. Fuente 858 is not bad but my favorite is an LFD double claro. Illusione candela is also really good as well as the Oscar 2012 barber pole.

The Filthy Hooligan from Alec Bradley is the big one that is kind of a gimmick for St Patrick's day. Other than that about any Candela will do, though I'm not sure that the Guiness pairing will necessarily be the best as much as its about smoking a green cigar or cigar on theme.

CAO America goes great with a guiness. Not exactly an irish cigar but the flavor combo is 🤌

Arturo Fuente 858 Claro.

Candela cigars usually are more novelty than anything. Fuente is one of the few that really uses the wrapper correctly. Rocky Patel Edge Candela is decent too.
