    Default looking for some recommendations

    So far the cigars I like the most are Montecristo Media Noche, Ashton Maduro and Gurkha black puro. Anyone know something that is similar to these 3?

    I'm not really a fan of mild cigars, and even some medium body smokes left me looking for more. So anything in the medium-full range is what I'm looking for. I do like maduro wrappers a lot. But I've enjoyed many with other wrappers.

    Thanks in advance.

    Rich.

    Hola Logan:

    I would recomend you two lines:

    Carlos Toraņo Exodus 1959 (Medium to Full).
    La Joya de Nicaragua Antaņo (Full).

    Regards.

    Ricardo.

    Logan,

    I haven't tried any that you have, but based on your description, give these a try:

    Any Padron 1000 series (I like the 3000 or 4000) Maduros
    Sancho Panza XF
    Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur Dark Knights
    La Gloria Cubana Serie R
    Ashton VSG (if you like the maduros, you might like the sungrowns as well)
    Partagas Black
    Olivia Serie O Maduro
    Diamond Crown Maximus

    .....in no particular order of preference.............

    Thanks for the input guys. I have a few of the ones that you mentioned in my humi. The reason I asked is because I'm having problems deciding which one to smoke when I open the lid. The others mentioned I'll look into and maybe see if I can find a sampler with a few of those in them. I found one site where you can make your own sampler.

    I"ll be smoking the Ashton VSG and Partagas Black that I have already. Also I think the Padron anniversary is going to get burned soon as well. I've heard that they don't age that well(any thoughts on that?).

    I forgot to mention in the starter post that I really enjoyed the HdM dark sumatra also.

    Thanks again.

    Do what I do, as long as you've eaten.......close your eyes, open the humi, grab something......then smoke it. Works every time.

    Also try some Don Pepin's, I've had quite a few of the blue label torpedos and they were very good, spicy cigar.
