ag794516 Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 I am looking for a cigar at stock for my brother. It should be an every day smoke for round about one hour. Not strong, medium bodied would be better but it must have aroma. Which one do you recommend? It should be a: Corona Gorda Hermosos No 4 Robusto Campana Please tell me which brand and type you would recommend to buy?
garbandz Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 I would ask your brother what he likes to smoke,and get those. Otherwise you will get every possible version of answer,and not just in the vitolas listed. siglo 4 Upmann conni #1 J Lopez #1 Choix RyJ #4
fingerburner Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 I'd go with either an SLR Serie A, or an Upmann Conni 1.
mk05 Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Any idea what he has smoked and liked so far? You know, in case he's one of those people that has a preference. I'm pretty binary. I just buy a box, whatever's on sale. I smoke it. If I like it, I buy more of the same. If I don't, I smoke it fast and get rid of it...then I buy a box on sale. See the pattern? It's a lose lose situation, all the way around.
marper331 Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 HDM Epi 2 would be a good choice. where can I get a brother like you? lol
stogieluver Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 HDM Epi 2 would be a good choice. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^This^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
CaptainQuintero Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Safe option would be upmann Connie #1 I'd say, unless he has preferences. There's nothing to dislike about them if you enjoy cigars I think.
MaxHabana Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 My suggestion is to get Partagas D 4 or H Upmann Royal Robusto. Very tasty and a pleasent smoke.

It's a lose lose situation, all the way around. He has smoked a JL S2, Upmann No2, BBF,RASS, VR Unicos and the PSP No2. He liked all but the Partagas was a little bit spicy for him. I know not everybody like it.

There's nothing to dislike about them if you enjoy cigars I think. I read much about the Connie 1 but haven't smoked it yet. Connies are on my favorites list for myself for next purchase. I know Rob has good ones. What aroma does they have?
Optic101 Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 As mentioned: HDM Epi 2 HU RR JL 2 Very nice of you !!!
ag794516 Posted February 20, 2014 Author Posted February 20, 2014 HDM Epi 2 would be a good choice. where can I get a brother like you? lol I'll do all for my family. He always cares for me when he visits Germany and catches me a botrle of my favorite Whisky or Rum. HIGHLAND Park 18 Y or Plantation Rum Barbados Extra old Reserve XO 20 Anniversary. Don't take so long till they are gone because al my friends take a glas here and there...

I know Rob has good ones. What aroma does they have? Smoke aroma is milk chocolate to me Aroma at cold is a rich, subtlety-sweet tobacco Damn, I need to smoke one now!
Fosgate Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 I took the advise of some members here and messaged Rob (El Presidente) what smokes good for me now by two or three brands that I like, body of cigar I prefer and he recommended 15 different cigars to sample. Ordered three of each (just in case I get an unusual one) to get a good judge of a cigar. That way I can try several and decided which one I like best and your brother may be able to do the same. And really, when I pick out a cigar I typically walk into a smoke shop and ask the same of a knowledgeable tobacconist when I'm looking for something new.
Nicholas Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Sancho Panza Belicosos or maybe Trinidad Coloniales Mild and tasty cigars
Orion21 Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 The Sancho Panza Belicosos has been an eye opener for me. Lots of flavor. But to answer the OP's question I would go with a corona gorda or dalias/lonsdale sized cigar. I would be looking at RA Superiores, Partagas 898 or the RyJ Cazzadores.

But to answer the OP's question I would go with a corona gorda or dalias/lonsdale sized cigar. I would be looking at RA Superiores, Partagas 898 or the RyJ Cazzadores. He said not strong, so I'd avoid the cazzies or 898s. SLR Serie A, Montecristo Especiales or if you've got the coin, Cohiba Corona Especiales are nice.
Orion21 Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 The current 898 and Cazzie aren't strong to me. Full of flavor, but I understand people have different tolerances.
Laxman Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 As mentioned: HDM Epi 2 HU RR JL 2 Very nice of you !!! x2
1LegLance Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Hoyo Epi 2, or SLR Regio would be nice choices
ewipper Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 Strange that no one would suggest BBF, especially given its consistency. 1
kevfi Posted February 20, 2014 Posted February 20, 2014 HDM Epi 2 would be a good choice. where can I get a brother like you? lol +1
