I am new to the smoking world. Does anyone know anything about Romeo Y Julieta Cigars that are made in Cuba opposed to the Dominican Republic?
Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur
the cuban version dates back to 1873 and is produced in 12 different factories..it is a huge line in terms of sizes,etc....the D.R. version is made in la romana.....other than the name,they are two totally different cigars...
I suppose the Cuban brand is better. What would a box of 10 of those sell for?Quote:

The DR R y J's have different flavors depending on the blend. There is a wider variety of flavors with the DR's. I prefer the black labels (Reserve Maduro's), although the Reserva Real are nice (but somewhat on the milder side)...
10 packs of the R y J's from Cuba depend on where you buy them from, and what vitola (size) you're interested in. Probably around $5 up to $20+ a cigar, again depending on source and size. Canada's gonna be a bit more expensive, primarily because of taxes. England's a bit less expensive, but the 17.5% VAT is a killer. You can find some deals in Europe, New Zealand/Australia or Asia. Many of the sources in the Caribean are cheaper.
There is also a great chance of counterfeits if you don't know your source.
A friend treated me to a Graycliff Red Label (I believe Robusto size) last weekend. It has been resting in the humidor for the last few days. I think I will try that tonight. Should be interesting.

Last night my friend and I smoked ourselves a couple of Upmann Coronas Majors, excellent smoke and a very enjoyable time.
Cuesta Rey Stanford's Cameroon Reserves
WOW!! one of the best tasting cigars i've ever smoked! Shame, I only had one. :smiley19:
if anyone had a fiver of these they'd be willing to part with, I'd greatly appreciate a trade or purchase. Or if you know of a source that still has them.
I love these smokes too. Have a couple in the humidor. The only way for me to get them locally is sold in a humidor gift set which is pretty nice for about 180.00. The singles for the Cameroons are completely sold out. NiceAsh has fivers in stock for 29.75-Quote:

Sounds like the Graycliff Original PGX. Nice - kinda mild, but nice... Definitely overpriced, but if someone gave it to you, it's worth it!!! :smiley20:Quote:
