I don't have the budget for Fuente Hemingways and the like. For my money I always enjoy an Indian Tabac Super Fuerte Maduro.

Though I have limited exposure, that's my favorite as well. Especially when you consider the money.

I strongly agree on the Curchill cohiba's TO. I find they are just pleasing all around with size and flavour, also they are perfect when doing your best "Winnie" Impersonation!


P.S. My Old Man (God love him) is bringing me a box back on the 26th. Looks like one fine summer gentlemen.

A toss up between Arturo Fuente Hemingway Signature Maduro and La Gloria Cubana Serie R # 7 Maduro. Second to that would be Punch Rare Corojos.

I had a Punch Rare Corojo the other day and it was excellent. Can't go wrong with the Fuente lines either in my opinion!

I'm glad you enjoyed it, they are very fine sticks at a comparatively low price IMHO.

Well here in the land of the cigar embargo, we have to 'settle for' non-Cuban 'imitations' of cigars Laughing

The two years I spent in England, many a true Punch, H Upman, Partagas, Cohiba, passed my lips. C'mon Obama, lift the damned embargo already, do something good for us cheers

Another occasional smoke for me, especially after a heavy meal Arturo Fuente 8-5-8 Maduro. I find them just ever so slightly sweet, rich and satisfying.

Smoked a CAO Gold Label Maduro yesterday. I believe that's the finest cigar I've tried so far!
