Help - Getting Back To Cigars

[bobarian]

One thing you will find that the cigar market has changed dramatically since the boom years. Much better smokes at far lower prices, tons of good stuff in the $4-8 range. Also, there are more full bodied smokes now. Alot of corojo and ligero. CC's are still consistently good, you cant go wrong with a Monte #4. Check out some of the samplers on cigarbid.com.

That's an interesting site that I might try. If I'm only smoking 2- 3 a week for a while without a humidor is it worth paying shipping on a $20 - $30 order?

If the owner from the local shop ever comes back I'd like to use his place as much as possible but some of those deals look good on things that the local shop doesn't have and the sample packs, as you mention, look interesting.

Thanks

I'm guessing you'll be shopping for a coolador before April is out.

BTW...I gave up cigars for about 6 years until taking them back up again last year. A lot of good quality makers have come around since then & the Don Nobodys have gone away. Pepin, Padilla & Oliva are some that come to mind.
