You can get a "pretty good" Punch Cigar for about $3.50 U.S. I forget the name, but they are about 5.5 inches long and have a 44 ring gauge. They are not great, but they are acceptable and avaliable in the U.S.

There is also the Guantanemera Cristales. They are about $5 CAD and I would rate them a solid 87. But they are Cuban and hense not avaliable in the U.S.

That is all I can think of right now, but If I think of more I will add them later.
So you wrote all that too say no?
