I like the Arganese Nicaraguan Sun Grown Robusto best. Then the Gran Habanos 3 Siglos. The Rocky Patel Sun Grown Petite Perfecto is a good third.

can't argue with any of 'em so far....RP's been mentioned, but the one that rocked me was a Factory Select Sungrown Petite Corona.

and just to be that guy, the 3 siglos wrapper is actually shade grown, delicious smoke nonetheless though. Also a smoke I like a lot is the Habanos Puros Fuerte #4 Petite Corona. Quite tasty and powerful.

I think that I am the only person left on Earth who hasn't tried a RP Sungrown!!

I really like the Fuente ones particularly the Chateau Fuente and the King B. I also love the V Lanceros.

VSGs kick my butt too much everytime I smoke one!!

The Fuente Chateau Fuente is a great SG. (I know a few mentioned it already).

The only drawbacks of the Chateau SG is that they are very spicy when young. I think they are just as spicy as an Opus when young (not near as strong nic wise though).

I agree Sauer but no one has mentioned the Mack Daddy of all sungrowns in my opinion. The elusive 858 sungrown. I have some with some age on them that are ridiculous!

I like the AF Chateu SG line . The Rp's are pretty good also . VSG and the ESG are really good for me as well . As for my 858's - simply my favorite SG but just to darned hard to stumble upon .

VSG Corona Gorda. Had one last night and smoking one right now. It must be my currently daily smoke.
