Best Sun Grown? - Page 2

Sauer Grapes · 11-21-2008, 03:00 PM

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 just loves me some Taboo HSG lanceros. Wish I had some.

awsmith4 · 11-21-2008, 03:27 PM

I love almost all of the a fore mentioned sticks especially the RPs and the AFs. Two more of my favorites are the Cabaguian Guapo and the Oliva S

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!

For me its VSG and Fuente Sun Growns

11-21-2008, 03:49 PM

VSG and Rocky Sun Grown for sure. Don Thomas isn't my favorite but definitely a great sun grown.

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.

Ashton VSG. Had my first about 2 weeks ago, bought a box. Loved them to death.

BORIStheBLADE · 11-21-2008, 05:49 PM

You can add me to AF sungrown and Ashton VSG. Mighty tasty

Jdbwolverines · 11-21-2008, 06:25 PM

VSG's if I have the $, RP's if I don't

11-21-2008, 06:42 PM

I have always loved the 858 sg when available. Just better than the regulars in my opinion.

Edit...... So? You like some Sun Growns, do ya?
Muwahahahahaha

Hmmmmmmmmm......sunds tasty. Didn't even know they existed. I do like the AF SunGrowns for sure. Just had a couple this past week and they made me become aware that I like sn growns.

RP, VSG, Don Thomas, as many have mentioned these. . . I too like these - can't go wrong with en as far as I'm concerned.

Silound · 11-22-2008, 12:52 AM

King B's, Diamond Crown Maximus in any size, 858 SG (I still have some from the original '98 offering), and Taboo are my favs.

I find RP sungowns to be sketchy...a good box out of 3 maybe. Last box I had were so terribly constructed I stopped buying them altogether. I have a few singles from previous boxes that are great.

Someone mentioned Oliva Serie V.....that's an unusual wrapper they created for that cigar, but it's one-of-a-kind good. Until you said something, I almost forgot that was a SG.

CBI_2 · 11-22-2008, 06:51 AM

RP sun grown and the one VSG I had was awesome.

FYI to all here. Scott has become a sun grown ho.

jledou · 11-22-2008, 06:55 AM

I have been enjoying the RP-X-outs Sungrown. Construction and smoking on these are not an issue IMO.
