Cigars!!!

What would you reccomend as a first smoke from your list, mild and enjoyable?

 

The only mild one on that list would be the Rocky Patel 1992. And maybe the Illusione CG4.

The RP92 are very easy to find. I would reccomend you buy a 5 pack from Cigarinternational.com

^ this is a killer deal. It's basically the ones that don't pass the minimal requirements from Rocky. A friend purchased it, and said he couldn't tell the difference.

Oh I also highly reccomend the Man-O-War, it's more on the medium side. but very tasty.

It's a little difficult to make a good suggestion at the moment, as I haven't smoked a mild body in a while. But I think you would like the Man O War and or Rocky Patel 1992

 

Just picked up a few nice ones today. I smoked the Ashton today and wasn't too impressed.

 

Smoked a Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur this evening. Once of my favorite smokes under $8.

 

Wasn't too impressed with the Ashton's either but that CAO MX2 looks pretty tasty. If you're looking for a nice smooth, kinda oily smoke try to find a Henry Clay sometime, for the price I'd say one of my favorites.

Is that a couple of Julietta's I see in the bag also?

 

I will have to try to find that Henry Clay. sounds pretty good. Yes, you do see 2 Julietas. The one next to my CAO MX2 is the 1875 and the other to the far right is the Vintage. I am a big fan of the 1875. Very smooth. The other on the far left is a Diamond Crown. It was rated one of the top cigars last year. Has a vanilla/almondy taste from what the guy at the cigar store said.

 

Baccarat churchills! Great smoke at $5.95.

 

I enjoy a great cigare also. On a nice cool day or on a cool morning with coffee. The one I enjoy the most are from Thompson cigare co.called Antonio Fermin 2- Far Natural Lonsdale. I also enjoy the Dutch Masters corona vanilla and the Dutch Masters masters collction.

 

anyone heard of drew estate? I am not into cigars, but I created their website a while back

 

Im more partial to the gas station cigars like philly blunts-grape, grape swishers and black and milds, I smoked a cuban, do not want

 

Got the chance to smoke a cuban not too long ago... I was green as shit.

 

Yes, they make the Acid, Tabak Especial, and a few others I enjoy from time to time. Their Natural series "Jucy Lucy" cigar is great, just too short and an Acid "Blondie", "Kuba Kuba" and "Roam" sound pretty good about now.(ducks to humidor)

 

Personally, I think Cuban cigars are over-rated and just one of those things everyone seems to use as a "yard-stick" for rating cigars...nearly every Cuban I have had either burns like crap or reminds me of a turd covered in burnt hair...

 

Swisher's for me. I've had some real cigars that tasted really good at a friend of my dad's house before but I'm not to heavy into them. I can't recall the name of them tho. He told me that they were the next best thing to cuban, but that could be anything.

 

Another cigar I would recommend at a good price point would be a Arturo Fuente Curly-Head. It's a mild cigar with a nicely textured, leathery wrap...good chew-a-bility. For the price, less than $3 a stick, they are quite frankly the bargain for a high-end cigar. Only difference between a higher priced AF is that the Curly-Heads are made with "short filler" (trimmings) vs long filler which really only affects ash length nearest I can tell.

 

Yeah I wasn't too impressed with them. Neither was the rest of my body feeling like shit. lol

 

x2 about gas station cigars. i have got some from wal mart and not this tabaco store thats about 15min from my house has some good ones and some the gas stations do but a little bit cheaper.

 

ok i got some of theas a few weeks ago. there called swisher BLK cherry. really good and got them for like 39c a peace. got 4 and had one in the taco. left NO smell at all and i did it because i hit 30K miles the day before. lol i have also have swisher sweet strawberry, and some grape swishes, black and milds, and some cream idk remember who made them.

 

I'm a maduro guy myself, I prefer a dark/bold smoke. I picked up a Graycliff (Bahamian cigars) and they were excellent, I'd highly recommend them. The Ghurka's are a good choice for a medium stick and are also very smooth.

My smokes for this weekend include:

Graycliff
Ghurka
Montecristo No. 4
Cohiba Siglo 1
Romeo Julieta 1875

Gonna be a good weekend!

 

I will have to see if my cigar shop stocks those Graycliffs. I have never had a Bahamian cigar.
