Over the past year, i have come to the realization that i love cigars. A friend originally got me to try Backwoods, and thats what set off my interest. I received a 1964 anniversary addition padron for my birthday and LOVED it. And, while it was delicious, it is unfortunately out of my price range, not to mention i usually do not have time for a big cigar like that. So, ive mainly been sticking to backwoods. This christmas, i visited my family in europe, and while there, picked up a box of dutch Justus Van Maurik petite pantillas for 15 euros. Hands down my favorite cigarillo/small cigar. So much so that i really am not enjoying backwoods like i used too. This is where my problem arises. i looked EVERYWHERE, and cannot find Justus van maurik cigars in America. After much searching, i decided to ask you fine gentlemen ( and ladies) your opinion. What i am really looking for is a small cigar, that doesnt take long to smoke but has a full, thick? flavor. i apologize as my cigar lingo probably isnt really top notch here. Another problem is my price range. I am going to school while working minimum wage, so i cant really drop alot of money. I am a fan of sweeter cigars, though i still like it to have a very.. dark? flavor. backwoods seem far to mild after my encounter with these dutch cigars. Any suggestions would be welcome, and i hope to stick around on these forums for a while and learn a few things here and there.
Thanks!
For reference, these are the cigars i picked up while in europe.
EDIT: i would also like to mention that the dutch cigars i got also give me a very nice headbuzz. Even one of the cigarillos does a pretty good job. it would take at least 3 or 4 backwoods to replicate the effect.
