Best Box in Terms of Value and Quality
 
What box of cigars would you name the best in terms of value and quality?

I would go with Punch Gran Cru Maduros at 20/$96 or the Ramon Bueso Genesis at $75

But that's just me. What do you guys think?

Partagas Mille Fleurs are pretty consistent and can be had for around 75

Another vote for 601 Blue, plus a vote for Punch Bareknuckle Rothschild, 20 for $69.95 (plus a free sampler pack at some places.)

I'm a fan of the Nicaraguan Ligero Laced 2nds. Averages about $1.75 a stick. or the AJ Fernandez Overruns...$2 a stick.

Always forget about the Nic 5000s. For as cheap as they are I feel like I should have smoked a few by now. I have also enjoyed the Gispert line. I liked them a little more when they were 49.99 a couple years ago. I believe they are closer to 70 these days.

601's, brick houses can be found cheap, SLR rothschild (come in a 50ct box so i guess the whole thing isnt cheap, but the individuals are), alec bradley american classic (i perfer the sungrown). If i want to be in the lower mixed fill range, benchmades all day (made by pepin, distributed by ashton, super cheap and a nice spice)

Gran Habano Vintage 2002 on CBid. You can get a 20 bundle for about $30.

I always enjoyed Sancho Panza Extra-Fuerte Corona's box of 20 for around $45.

But the best deal I got was a box of Cubao Maduro torps for $55. off Cbid wish I could track those down again!

Private Stock by Davidoff...almost exact same blend without paying the ridiculous price. Will run you about 75 for a box of 25

601 Blues are great. Partagas Black Magnificos 20/$85 is also a good quality/value in my book.

Kelmac07 - have you found the Famous Nic 5000's to be consistent
from bundle to bundle? I bought several bundles a few years ago
& like 'em, but I wonder whether these are the same smokes they
were, as bundles often 'change' over time (tobacco, maker). If
they're as good as they were, I'm ready to buy a couple more.
