That's a great price. I prefer the Hermosos vitola, but that comes in at the same price.

Spend $50.00 and get a sampler,then spend the rest on what you like the best.If you are new to cigars I would not recommend a whole box,your taste will develop and you will be stuck with a box of just 1 brand.......

I'd get a box of PDR's

I will second the Kristoff Maduro, also the AF 8-5-8 Maduro can be had for around $100 as well.

Here's what I have got for myself, so far...

5 x 601 Connecticut Toro (I hear great things about the maduro, but I LOVE connecticuts.)
5 x Brick House Toro
5 x Rocky Patel 1961 Toro
5 x Flor de Oliva Gold Toro

Leaves me at $79, so $21-31 to spend...ish.

I would drop the Flors, not worth the money, even at ~$3 per stick.

I've been diggin the LAdC Edicion Especials and San Cristobal Seleccion Del Sols of late, so personally I'd spring for a fiver of one. Then again, it is holiday time and I'd look to see if there were any good deals on Anejo 46s. Smoke one this Christmas/New Years, let the rest sit for the next year onward. This years batch of Anejos are smokin pretty good compared to last years fresh.

If not you should join. It's $35/year and they will send you two premium cigars too.
Then use the rest on some singles maybe?

Tell me more about this CRA?

And where do you all find the best prices on you DUHC's?

I'd spend my $100 for a variety of cigars. :)

Kind of thinking of going to the B & M and buying a ton of singles.

They're basically a lobbying group that stand up for cigar smoker's rights. If you enjoy smoking premium cigars, you should be a part of the CRA.

Not a bad idea either, I always like supporting the local shops (so I have a place to go smoke in this damn cold weather!).

if you dont know what CRA is, go to their site. CRA

So, I made my own Cigar Monster Mashup sampler:

5 x 601 Red Label Habano Robusto
5 x Amilcar Perez Castro Robusto
5 x Carlos Torano Cameroon 1916 Robusto
5 x Carlos Torano Exodus 1959 Silver Robusto
5 x Famous Nicaraguan 3000 Robusto
5 x La Floridita Limited Edition Magnum
5 x Maxx by Alec Bradley
5 x Olor Fuente Magnum
5 x Perdomo 2 Limited Edition 2008 Robusto
5 x Tatuaje Havana VI Nobles

I feel that it's a good variety, 50 sticks for $140ish, less than $3 per stick...

Check Joe's Jam on CI's site daily. The Unholy Cocktails show up on there pretty frequently for about $35 per 10 pack. Also, you can occasionally get a good price on cigarbid, though people usually bid them up around actual retail price. Other than that, occasionally CI drops the price of a box to $90.

That's a nice selection you've got there. The La Floridita Limited is a really nice stick after resting for a few months and the Tatuaje is one of my favorites.

Going to have to keep an eye on this - been wanting to try this marca. Thanks for the tip!
