Thread: I've always been a name brand snob when it comes to cigars...

  1. Default I've always been a name brand snob when it comes to cigars...

    My humidor is filled with Romeo & Julieta, Partagas, Montechristo, Cohiba, Arturo Fuente, Punch, Don Allone, Ashton, Upmans etc. What am I missing? What's out there that my closedmindedness is missing?

    I tend to like smooth medium bodied cigars. I hate cheap, harsh smokes.

    A lot of the AVO's, Griffin's, Davidoff, and many of the CAO line fill that bill as well. Peterson is a new one that is one the milder side, but is a great tasting cigar. I also like many of the La Gloria Cubana cigars, which happen to be in that taste range.

    Anything I've tried by Indian Tabac/Rocky Patel was a winner! For example, I've had........


    IT Fire Maduro- Great!
    Rocky Patel Vintage '92'- Great!
    Rocky Patel Sun Grown- Great!
    IT Cameroon Legend- Really good.
    IT maduro- Good.
    IT natural- Good.


    I plan on sampling as much of their line as possible.

    man, we have similar tastes in cigars, almost all of those are some of my favorites!!
    There's only two kinds of cigars, the kind you like and the kind you don't.

    I have been really enjoying Perdomo estate selections with the Cameroon wrap. They are a little stronger than what you’re talking about but are certainly worth a try.

    Also give the Rocky Patel Connecticut a try. They are great smokes.

    What Iam trying to say is. You seem to be at the point were I am. I have this -





    I do not need another box of Montes or Partagas unless I smoke the ones that I have in my smoking rotation. You are at the collecting and aging point.

    Start looking and buying the stuff that is not of the norm. Like the discontinued stuff and rarer things. There are alot of deals to be had out there. Just take your time and search.

    I would definitly invest in some Davidoff's or some Vintage Montecristo's. (Personally I recommend 1992, Montecristo #1's.)

    Otherwise, that is one fine looking collection!

    The exact same box is for sale at my local shop!!! If you don't mind me asking, how much did you pay?? I have been eyeing it up for some time now, and he is willing to break the box up and sell it as singles so I am thinking I better buy the box before some dolt breaks it up!

    Nice Humidor, where did you pick it up from? And can you take a pic of your humidifiers? I'd love to see more of it
