This is my first post here (Hello!), so excuse the newbie question. I seem to have little problem finding more expenisve cigars that I like. The problem seems to come in when trying to find an "everyday" type of cigar in the less expensive bracket. I have read a lot of reviews on Top25Cigar.com, bought a fair number of the cigars, and found that my tastes must run counter to the norm. For example, a number of the reviewers rated the Davidoff Grand Cru #1 as being "bold" in taste. I found it to be light to my own tastes.

My size preferences tend towards the Lonsdale size.......40-44 being a great ring size for me, and 5-6.5 inches being a great length. My preferences in the mid-range priced cigars are the Arturo Fuente Hemingway Classic and the Ashton VSG Illusion (just found a box of these). I wish that I understood cigar vocabulary well enough to describe why I like these two cigars, but they just "taste right" to me. However, I can't financially consider either one of these to be an "everyday" (maybe two in a day) smole. I'd love to find a couple of cigars in the $5 range that I can enjoy smoking without feeling like I'm robbing my future retirement. I do realize that tastes may differ but, hopefully, there will be some suggestions that will lead me to my goal!
