Default NHC Seleccion Limitada ... Natural or Reserva?

I am looking to pick up a 5'er of one or the other and want to get some feedback on these before I decide which blend to get.

Which one do you like better and why?

Not shameless brother, your sale is why I'm asking so I know which one to get!

Saw your listing and thought I would give one a try ... Now I just need to decide which one.

Make sure you save me a fiver of both Gator! PM will be coming this weekend.

Prefer the reserva, but both are fantastic sticks.

I like the naturals a lot, but you can't really go wrong with either.

Get them both, Chris.
I thought I would like the Reserva better but I actually preferred the natural.
Got lots more spice out of it.

You got more spice from the Reserva or Natural?

Smoking a Reserva right now because of this post

Both are good in their own way, the Reserva later in the day with some coffee (great aroma from the smoke BTW) since it has some dark chocolate notes in the beginning, and the Natural whenever (I find it to be less spicy and more sugary sweet).

Either way from what I understand they are a 1 run deal and came out in 2009 (I think) with that they just keep getting better, and so does the price

Looks like the reserva from what I read I'd a little more spicier then the natural. I do like spice in some cigars but found I like a stick with less spicey peppery kick.

My favorites have turned out to be more medium less spicey sticks like the Undercrown and Ave Maria.

I think for my taste and palate from what I see the natural may be something I enjoy more.

If you are familiar with tatuaje reserva, and natural in the brown label line (La Seleccion de Cazador if you want the fancy name)...

think of it that way.


(because that's exactly what you are getting )

So the consensus seems to be Reserva!

Guess I have to go with the majority and hope for the best.
