    Or an Oliva for $5.

    I tried a few Arturo Fuentes, and they either were too strong for me, or didn't taste good. I've also tried a few Punch's, Helix's, didn't quite work. I was also still having trouble discerning tastes, so I might have to revisit.

    I had a few Davidoff Private Stock's that I liked, a few Flor de Oliva, a Gispert Robusto, all were pretty tasty to me. I didnt' like the Romeo y Julieta that I tried, and it was expensive.

    I'm still fairly new, but eager to learn and try out new sticks lol
    Everyone tries Mac, it is a very popular cigar because it is carried everywhere and they promote the hell out of it. but a lot of what you are paying for is name. I have never smoked a Mac that just blew my mind. It's all about the journey though right.

    Well, my first Hampton Court I loved because I was noob and trying out sticks that were too strong for me, and the Hampton Court was pretty mild and creamy tasting.

    Now I know there are other mild/mediums that I like, but it WAS one of the first I liked, and because they're so readily available, I can pick them up on those occasions where I didn't bring anything but find myself with time/desire to smoke.

    I really like the JM's Dominican for a cheap smoke. I keep a good 5-10 in my humidor to give out to buddies when they come over, as well, since they run $2-3 a stick. Not as tasty as others, but at $2 a stick I'll take it.
    America is all about tolerance. We love tolerance, we love the melting pot, and we hate intolerance...

    Unless its directed towards a freakin' smoker.

    Check out Rocky Patel Vintage 99 petite corona. I can draw it out to 20+ mins but they can go pretty quick. They're a good stick in the morning with coffee.
