Must try cigars

[REASON]

i'll back you up on these! So would Simon as he loves those skinnies. never seen him discuss those Especials, though...

Ever had a slenderella, Chris?

No I have not, funny too as I have not had much time with Rafael Gonzalez couple boxes of Panetelas is all I've had.

These days I am enjoying with Bolivar Royal Coronas A.T. I should suggest you to try it. It's just excellent.

I'm hoping to have a little spare cash in the next couple of months and my AFs are starting to run low. So I'm thinking about the cigars that I want to pick up next. So turning to the collective wisdom of the board I was wondering what are the must try, regular production cubans?

Thoughts so far:
RA Specially Selected
HDM Epicure (but which one?)
Monte Edmundo
Punch Punch

I feel like there should be a Cohiba in there somewhere. I also enjoyed the Bolivar No. 3 and don't really know the next step, maybe a Belicosos Finos?

For Cohiba I'd suggest Siglo VI for a larger smoke. I ordered 25 Secretos M5 but don't have em yet. They fit the profile of a good tommy smoke so fingers crossed. I'll let ya know.

in those sizes, the Montecristo Especials 1 and 2 are FANTASTIC
Cohiba Lancero is the best cohiba out there, but for the price, it's hard to look at.

Ahhh yeah, the lancero, what a beautiful stick I've always wanted to try! This has been added to my bucket list now, I've been wondering if the cardboard presentation (as opposed to wooden dress box) is any less effective for it's flavour profile?

Cohiba is a strange one. I've never tasted differences in Tubes, SLB, and the Singles boxes.
People complain about some Trinidad tasting of cardboard on first draw (in colonials and stuff) but never had that in Cohiba.

Also, I would say the Lancero is the best cohiba after some age. They're not as palatable for me within 1-3 years

Yeah in that case I think I'll have to grab a 15 box of these in the cardboard packs of 3.. With that being said a 10 box of the Siglo VI looks great too! I have my eyes on:

SCDLH El Principe,
Hoyo PR,
Monte No.4

Anyone got opinions on these?

[butternutsquashpie]

MC 4 - get the Petit Tubos instead
Hoyo PR - get the Epi 2 tubos instead (unless you've already tried it? )
El Principe is very good.

Monte No. 4 is one of my favourites!

Completely disagree!

[ValeTudoGuy]

I say stick with Monte 4 and Hoyo PR! Enjoy.

It's all cool jezza, just a matter of taste.
