TJ - lovin' the clockwork orange emoticon, where did you get that?



Top smokes in order from favourite at the top would probably be:
HdM Epi 2
SLR Serie A
H Upmann Mag 46
HdM Des Dieux
Cohiba Robusto
Cohiba Siglo IV
SLR Regios
Montecristo Edmundo
RyJ Short Churchill

All of em robustos? And the D4 isn't on there!? I don't like the D4 meself, but for someone who loves his robustos, i'm genuinely surprised that the Partagas's staple cigar didnt' make it on your list!

Well, not all robustos, the serie A, magnum 46 and siglo IV are corona gorda. Robusto and corona gorda are definitely my favourite vitolas.

I've had a few Party SD4s but there always seems to be something else that I'd rather. I'd pick up a HdM Epi 2 or a Regio over an SD4 every time.

And the des dieux is a corona or corona grande , if I'm not mistaken?? But yea, the huge list of robustos just caught my eye and

It's nice to know I'm not the only party pooper here anymore. I was beginning to think something was wrong with me!

I didn't mention the des dieux as I have no idea what vitola it is. Bloody lovely though. 😊

I'm a robusto fan - for sure.
And I've never been lucky with D4's...

I don't really have an issue with D4s they've just never wowed me unlike Epi2, the Short Churchill and Regios.

Regios would be my favourite if only they could be a bit more consistent with the rolling. Although I've never had a plugged one; they're uncomfortably tight about 50% of the time which really affects the flavours.

[Simon G]

I think I need to try another Epi2.
I've only ever tried one, and found it way too light for my liking
Would like to try another just to test out again...

Short Churchill has been recommended to me - and this is one I need to try.

Have you tried the Half Corona H.Upmann dozydruid?

I thought that at first about the Epi2 but when I didn't have any I had such a craving for that tangy honey, cedar flavour. I bought another box and now they always have a place in my humi.

H Upmann half corona - Can't say I have. Is it one you recommend?

[Simon G]

For price and smoke - the half corona is a favourite. It's tiny, but can last an hour.

I will give the Epi2 another shot I think... I did try it, when I was new to cigars, so willing to try again.

***EDIT***
Just ordered a Short Churchill and Hoyo Epi 2, and a load of Half Coronas

Cheers!

[Deano]

Dunno if I said welcome, so welcome!

Looks like some good cigars being bought!

[UncleJoe]

Welcome! I'm a fan of the Epi2 as well, lovely cigar but it is in danger of being a little too light.
