Celebratory cigar

[EdBlackadder]

So (semi-)hypothetically speaking, if you had a small celebration, like passing a big exam; a taste for medium-to-full bodied cigars with pepper and a budget of no more than ?15 what would you go for?

I really really love that LE, can't understand why there wasn't more discussion of it - or maybe I missed it. Definite recommendation from me too.

Loved the 2 i had in Canada...... bought a box of them over in cuba for 40 quid and they were quite different. they weren't bad. just different..

I can't understand it either

fake butters

If you want pepper then it has to be something from the monte range

[butternutsquashpie]

naaaaah, 72 pesos. gave up a box of infantes because these Hoyos were so cheap.....
immediately regretted the decision.

and aye: i love monte when i can. but the hoyos just have this smooth filling odour that i love.
both are irreplaceable though, don't get me wrong

Just when I was starting to think a consensus was forming! Good tips guys, any more suggestion before I was to hypothetically consider picking something up?

blame mr. mo and his frequent Monte As

but the short pirimide shouldn't be too bad at all. monte 520 (adding onto mo's suggestion) is another one that might be worth the extra quid or three.......

Hoyo gets my vote too

Nothing wrong with the Short Hoyo it's a great cigar .... but to meet the criteria .... a slightly older style Habano with the pepper hints you're after. SLR Regios .... try to get plus three years.

I like the Hoyo too but if you want to go more full bodied this would definitely get my vote:

Has the advantage of already having a decent amount of age on it so it's ready to rock.

partagas lonsdale
