Favorite Cigar Under $2.00

groogs · 10-28-2008, 09:27 PM

I would have to go with the Oliva G Special G Maduro. I think this cigar has great chocolatey flavors and it is a nice small stick, so it is easy to smoke between classes, or on a winter evening when it is to cold to spend an hour outside. By the box, they run about $1.75 each.

I agree, this is a great stick and Olivas are just damn tasty.

For me it would be the Nestor Reserve maduro or the RP X-Out Liga A (Edge) maduro.

Smoked my first this past weekend and it was GREAT. Need to look into a box of 'em for sure.

I also have been enjoying the new batch of Nic 3000s, right at $2 each.

La Vieja Habana - The Early Years Silencio 4x46 PC box of 24 for $39.99 One of my favorite PC's for flat out Nicaraguan rich flavor with a chocolaty finish. Awesome short smoke that I believe also fits your maduro requirement.

I also like the Special G Maduro and the LVH Silencio.
But my favorite? How about FOUR CFO #7 Robustos! 50 cents each, they are hard to beat!

Lucky_Hippo · 10-29-2008, 05:47 AM

I'm gonna agree with Duck and say LVH, but I'm gonna switch it up and say the LVH Corojo. You can get the Bombero (6.0" X 50) for under 2 bucks all day long. These are great little jewls that often get dismissed due to the mixed filler, but the flavor and construction out way that point by miles.

I second the Sancho Panza DM and the Oliva special G. I've also been enjoying Punch London Club Maduros, 5"x40 $1.50

What is the CFO? I tried to search CFO but it was too short. I saw them mentioned before, and I tried google but no luck.

They have several samplers, but value wise the Blend #7 robusto cant be beat. You are close enough to give Barb a call, she is great. If you get a bundle of #7 robustos and dont like them. LMK and I will buy the balance.

Well it's not every day that I happen upon a testimonial from someone I respect that concerns a cigar I would never smoke. Now I will politely smoke one if given to me, but I would not be buying any, for sure. Well, this new troop support bender I got on recently has got me thinking about all kinds of different things, and I have been sampling the wares to see if I am really a dyed in the wool Havana only guy. WE SHALL SEE about this mythic Blend #7 robusto. I went ahead and grabbed two bundles with NO idea of what to expect, and in reality, they are going to troops anyway, but I will be smoking at least three to get a feel for what I am sending out. One thing I DID manage to remember, JR Alternatives are an alternative only to smoking your own feces. I remembered that from before, but for some reason I figured that times were different now. Nope, still crap, but about a buck 50 each. Poor troops

But no more of them, I promise.

I have some Famous Nic 1000s that taste Cuban. They are rumored to have a sweetened cap, but these don't seem to. They snork good.

Where is Bobarian and his CFOs? They are cheap, good cigars.

Mugen910 · 10-29-2008, 11:18 AM

Do free ones count?
