Question Favorite Cigar Under $2.00

Okay, so tell me what is your favorite cigar for under 2 dollars? Tell me the size, ring gauge and what makes the cigar a good buy for under $2 (this could be flavor, cigar size, value for the money)? For a kicker does it come in a maduro stick.

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.

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!

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.

Definitely a good choice... as well keep your eyes out for aged Nestor Reserve Maduros (Torpedo Bundle - 6.5" x 54).

If you keep your eyes peeled, it's not too hard to pick up some RP Vintage 1990 or 1992 Seconds on CBID. They are one of my favorite smokes to begin with, even more so around $2.

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

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.
