New World Recommendations

[cass2017]

Looking to explore some new world smokes, preferably full body, Dominican, Nicaraguan cigars, I like 5" cigars with a 45-50 ring gauge if this is at all possible? stupid question but is it possible to get something that I don't have to put to sleep for ages?

Oliva v robustos would b a good start. You can get them in the uk if you are buying here. If you are buying abroad there is a whole host of choices.

Also the good news is that most nc tobacco is aged for longer before rolling. So most are good to go. Obviously most full body sticks will improve with age but you arent missing too much with the majority of ncs

Thanks, that's good to know just looking online as we speak to sample a few as the suns back out.

Agree with the Oliva Serie V Robusto suggestion. Also, Padron 2000 is a lovely smoke. Liga Privada no.9 and T52 Robustos are great, if you can find them!

The Drew Estate Undercrown range is decent. I quite their coronas.

If you're in the mood for something a little bit smaller then the Arturo Fuente Short Story has never done me wrong.

Drew Estate Acid Range if you fancy something very different, I have a few reviews of their range up, the size your after your looking at the Atom Maduro which I reviewed today, or the Kuba Kuba. For something smaller or just to see if the Acid range will be for you, I'd start with either the Krush Morado Maduro or the bigger Blondie.

I was very hesitant with the Acid range but they are my favourite NC brand.

Pretty much anything by Arturo Fuente.
Pretty much anything by Tatuaje.
Alec Bradley Prensado.
Sam Leccia Black and White for something a bit different.
Kentucky fire cured MUWAT for something a bit more different.

I'm quite fond of TLT Esteliano (Nicaragua) at the moment however I bought them in Spain and cannot seem to find them online. Does anyone have idea where I might find them at all?

Maybe try something in the NUB range? I had a NUB Maduro a few weeks ago; very enjoyable smoke, though shorter at 4 inches than you prefer. I have a NUB Connecticut waiting to be smoked too but I always bypass it in favour of something else.

Drew Estate make a good selection to try. Acid Atom if you don't mind the very sweet tip. Undercrown or Tabac Especial.
Oliva series V is excellent though I have had a few which were not up to scratch so can be inconsistent quality.
Still working my way through them all so still searching out the jems for my taste. Just try one from each brand and you'll eventually find your magic sticks.

The cain 550s would be good for a fuller stick in robusto.

The good news if you like full body is that many ncs are like that because it is the preference in the american market... and thats what all these ncs get made for.

If only we had the American prices too.

NUB are a good suggestion, but almost anything Sam Leccia is good.

Like some have said Tatuaje or Undercrown series are fantastic. If anyone you know is going Miami get some cigars from cuba tobacco cigar co aka Bello cigars on calle ocho
