A few guys who smoke CIGarS, LiKe WaTCHes and talk about NoTHING!!!
 
Hey-oo,

Wassup guys, just wondering if anyone around here smokes cigars. :P

Ive been looking for some new daily cigars to replace my Fuente Flor Fina's....

maybe something with a candela wrapper??

nothing too cheap, yet nothing really outrageous

I mostly like a mild to medium cigar, yet sometimes ill have a full bodied maduro.

im just lookin to see if anyone knows of anything decent...maybe something vanilla-ish





ty :silly:

Havana Sunrise :)

La Gloria Cubana Series R No 6 is my favorite.

Run you 7-9 bucks in your average smoke shop when they are in stock. Around here they are really popular in the spring and summer therefore a little harder to come by.

Sciond Feb 15, 2008 08:33 PM

ok here you go....
I can recomend
Cmacho Corrojo...medium strength
Mayorga's
Maria Mancini
Padron's
Pumch Gran Cru
El Rey Del Mundo
or any other JR Tobacco brand is usually good
all consistent good cigars
that should get you started....BTW I have about 1,500 cigars in my humidors

5 Vegas Classic is my favorite med bodied smoke at usually $2-3 a stick.
or you can go the Gurkha Aniversio if you want to spend about $12 a stick. Both good, just depends on your budget




Sciond Feb 16, 2008 02:43 AM

Gurkha=YUCK lol
5 Cent Vegas..you like them? wow your the first I know.....taste is subjective though

I guess I am weird for liking a 90, 88, 87 rated cigar. They also won the cigar afciando blind taste test a little while ago...

They are a really good mild cigar. As for Gurhka, they are also rated very highly. but it's all on what you like.

What brand do you like the most?

i like this thread :clap:

Sciond Feb 16, 2008 02:57 AM

I have no faith in the ratings I have been smoking them for 15 yrs and rely on my palate .......I have never had a chocolate frangelica cinnamon cigar if you get my drift
I like Maria Mancini Magic Mountain, El Rey Del Mundo Robusto Largo or Principale, Camacho Corrojo, Padron Anniversarios, some various Cubans of which I keep about 200 at all times also for the budget minded the Genuine Counterfeit Cubans from JR



tC_2NeR Feb 16, 2008 07:50 AM

lol i wish i had a huge humidor....mine fits 15 tops...

but yea ill def check out some of those brands you mentioned...ive been getting tired of the Fuentes, although good, they just dont do it for me.... :yawn:

i wanna get into something a lil more creamy, and vanilla-ish lol

tC_2NeR Feb 16, 2008 08:19 AM

i think im gunna check out the CAO Italia's

and CAO Earth Nectar

Sciond Feb 16, 2008 02:20 PM

Cao are decent depending on the type......if you like cuadrado pressed cigars try the EL Rey Del Mundo Rectangulares about 3bucks per..Vanilla-ish gigars try the Oliveros Long Lady's-quality flavored cigars


Scott8 Feb 16, 2008 07:27 PM

you can always get a sampler and try a couple different brands to see what you really like





tC_2NeR Feb 16, 2008 10:31 PM

^good idea..i was on some websites last night, and I saw a Montecristo sampler, and an OpusX sampler...

lol the OpusX is wayy out of my budget, but i would like to try heheh


Scott8 Feb 16, 2008 10:32 PM

I want to try the Padron 40 anniversary. But they are like $26-30 a stick...

sampler is the way to go. try Cigarsinternational.com for a sampler


Sciond Feb 16, 2008 10:38 PM

actually I truly believe JR has the best deals

JR's is good as well. I have been leaning more towards CI lately since they have been doing some good daily and weekly email deals.

I think it's just on what you are looking for. Thompson's also has a really good first time buyer sampler with Partagas, Punch, Gurhka's, Rocky Patel, Carlos Turano, CAO to name a couple they give you. It's only $29.95 to try some big names and some different taste

Sciond Feb 17, 2008 01:43 AM

good point on Thompson's if you get a humidor tossed in also...I also like Mikes Cigar's as well




Scott8 Feb 17, 2008 04:44 PM

Mike's Cigars???






Sciond Feb 17, 2008 05:38 PM

they are one of the oldest and best
