Looking for some reasonably priced gars to fill up a drawer. I've eyed up some chinchaleros and some la rica coronas which is reasonably priced (for the uk!!!) but just seeing if anyone else has a good reliable budget smoke they swear by?
Or even the double robustos. They cash in at 10 quid here.
Come to think of it, I haven't had an NC in a WHILE. Cheap one I've had before was a Punch Robusto (NC of course). It was surprisingly awesome and I had to nub it. Cost me $4.50. With taxes and other shite, would've cost me around 10-15 here.
CAO la Traviata, if you can get them. Great budget NC.
HOLY CAO, how did i forget about cao!? Cao golds are acquired tastes. Can't guarantee they'll be to your liking but do try em out. Some of em are even cheaper than the punches and just as good!
That punch i'll be sure to take a box or two next time i cross the border. (hell for that price, who can argue!?)
However,

The la Traviata is not part of the gold range. But it is their best smoke IMHO!
I'm not sure if there are any cigars being sold in the UK at ?80 a box or less which are worth filling the humi up with...
The only cigar of that sort of price I would even consider recommending to someone as a budget 'humi filler' would be the Chinchalero Picadillo - I reviewed if for the Cigar Monologues a while back (there's no-way I'd spend my own money on a box... that said, I'd pay double the asking price for these just to avoid being gifted a La Rica...) Here was what I thought: CLICK
However, we may have different approaches to cigars. I would rather forego the occasional cigar, and have a humi which is half full of really nice sticks, rather than have one filled to the brim with stuff which is best described as 'passable'.
