I havent been smoking cigars too long. I've only had 25 sticks and 3 of them were good enough to be repeats. (Camacho Triple Maduro, LFD Factory Press III, and Brazilias) I have been reading up on the the reviews and going back to The Humidor here in Wichita, KS. and asking for help finding more cigars that i like. I was told i like complex, full thinking man cigars. Not sure what that means. But i know i like strong cigars that arent harsh on my throat, but have bite to the tongue. i like black pepper, earthy/wood notes, cocoa/coffee, and different liquors (anejo/rum). problem is. like them all in one cigar. And i have been spending $13.00 per stick to do so. i was hoping to get some guidance on some cigars i should try. even if they are pricey, ill spend the money to try it. a list or a link to a review of a cigar, or even a link to a site i can order one from.
any info would be greatly appreciated.
thanks!

Having smoked only 25 cigars, having random internet BOTL/SOTL pick one for you is going to be a tough task. Most people can smoke well over 100 to find the ones they truly like or daily smokes. Thats some the beauty of cigars, there are so many available and atleast one out there for everyone's taste. Keep smoking, try as many as you can get your hands on. You can try samplers from various vendors like Cigarbid.com. There are typically samplers with slightly descriptive titles like "Full flavored" or "Mild and Creamy" etc. :tu

Also might want to take the time to make an introduction in the New Inmates Forum and let the Asylum know a little about yourself. :tu

Try some of the My Father cigars, Padrons and Tatuaje would probably be close to your flavor profile for what little info we have. Also how few cigars you have smoked.

I have to recommend Taboo Twists and Rocky Patel Vintage 92's for a nice and creamy taste.

you've already listed the LFD factory press as one of your few repeats. i'd explore the LFD line - especially the double ligero chisel. you'll find the profile similar throughout; spicey, peppery, chocolately.

good luck!
