I haven't enjoyed a really mild cigar yet. 5 Vegas Gold was like smoking air, and the few Candela/Cameroons I've tried were unimpressive.
Some cigars I'm curious about:
RP Decade, Renaissance
5 Vegas Relic, Cask Strength II
El Mejor Emerald
Gurkha - have yet to try one
Cremosa - are they really that bad?
Acid - same as above
Opus X - are they really that good?

So what am I missing out on? What should I buy next? Where are the best deals?

RP Decade, Renaissance: The OWR are good, not sure about this
5 Vegas Relic, Cask Strength II: I have not heard good things
El Mejor Emerald: Dont bother
Gurkha - have yet to try one: Look above
Cremosa - are they really that bad?: If it walks like a duck, talks like a duck...
Acid - same as above: The worst cigar I have ever tried, i hated ever second of it.
Opus X - are they really that good?: The only NC I enjoy, especially the Super Beli.

Good luck

I bid on some Short Stories on cbid (I believe) a while back, but they ended up going a little higher than I wanted to spend. Do you have a favorite vitola?

Yes I have. A few of the n000 series, and a 64. They were tasty!

Thanks for the reply. I'll probably still try them all. Worst case I'm out the cost of a 5er.

I just had a Short Story after dinner...I have prolly smoked 20 SS's in the last month...but my fave vitola is the Perfect Story, they are a little bit larger than the SS.
