As with any other cigar lines, you need to pick and choose through Alt selections, but I would advise anyone to let them sleep for a while before making up their minds on these. Not that I buy them on a constant basis, but they are good buys with age on them. I would definitely advise either a Honduran or Nic tobacco mix if buying Alts.

Used to purchase from JR's Alternative collection; IMO, they all tasted the same, just come in different sizes and color wrappers. It's probably been about 10 yrs. since last JR purchase. When it comes to yard gars, tend to stick with low end blends from list of preferred name brand manufacturers. Some supplier's offer name brand 2'nds, which I have found are not too bad.
