Excellent additions. Some real variations there.

Looking forward to trying them all. They are all new to me apart from the Por Larranaga Panetelas

Yes.

Oh come now, goys! You get what you pay for.
They're not bad. They're just objectively "worse". They're smokeable up to a certain length then they get very tannic and heavy - like most cigars. It's just that Guantanameras have a shorter put-down-time.
If I want an ass kicking, I'd probably go for a fresh Cuban Cigar like a Partagas or Bolivar. But nothing would stop me from getting a regular Cristales at the local shoppe just for kicks. They have some nice packaging as well.

Those puritos are actually nice winter smokes, though.

When I was out in Cuba, This guy I spoke too a few times took 100 Guantanamera back, every time I saw him, he was nursing a partagas or monte or cohiba, I couldn't for the life of me figure out why!

But yes, they are pretty nasty...by comparison, if it was that or a hamlet, I wouldn't know what to do!

Are Guantanamera that bad?

Yes.

[Starkey]

Guantanamera are enough to put you off, if you want a cheap Cuban go for Jose l piedra

[Scooby]

el rey del mundo Demi tasse are good for winter and good value.

Oliva g ?6 something
partagas shorts

or if you can smoke indoors Cuban petit coronas are a good place to start. And can be had on cgars for as low as ?8 something. Tbh you can't really go wrong with most Cuban PCs, good snapshot of the flavours of different brands and good bang for your buck. Except guantanamera.

what I did was sort by lowest price on cgars search and work my way through the cheapest of each brands. Wasn't impressed with Antonio gimenez, quorum, Regius, winston Churchill, inka or la invicta(except the maduros)

Planning on placing an order myself today. Will probably use Cgars. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Treat yourself, buy a Bolivar Lonsdale, about ?13 They're not strong!

The samplers on Cgars are priced slightly cheaper than buying the equivalent singles.

Alternatively just pick a bunch of singles as a starting point to various brands.

Are you smoking outdoors or indoors? If outdoors then you might struggle with enjoying anything more than a Perla size(I know I do!) and therefore Montecristo no 5, Siglo 1, Rafael Gonzalez Perlas are ideal for colder months.

Bear in mind I'm a newbie too so only going on what I've smoked over the last 5-6 months [emoji58]
