Don Collins Cigars

New guy here first post. Have really got into cigars in the past couple of years with the help of my brother. I like the info provided on the site here still have a lot to learn but it is a great hobby. I just ordered a 90 count Diamond Crown humidor should be here Friday can't wait! I was in Puerto Rico 2 weeks ago and spent some time at the Don Collins cigar shop talking with Don himself. Bought some of his cigars they seem to be a really nice smoke. Not sure where they rank as far a quality of cigar. Has anyone ever tried them? Still looking to find a steady go to cigar for everyday smokes. Looking for suggestions.

Thanks,

Buckeye Fan

Welcome from Bitterville. I don't recall ever having a Don Collins, but I did a search in the review forum and it looks like other marginally enjoyed it. I suggest Padron (like we didn't see that coming)

Never tried a Don Collins, but welcome to the board.

Welcome Buckeye! I haven't tried any of the Don Collins, but have had quite a few Hoja Boricua cigars from Puerto Rico. I've noticed that the Hoja's have improved dramatically after a couple months in the coolerdor.

Welcome to the forum from eastern Oregon. Have not had a Don Collins either. Give AF a try. Cains are also good. Any thing from the Oliva line is respectable too.
