LeafLover Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 I've never smoked a Cohiba Esplendidos or a Cohiba Coronas Especiales because I think too much for one box. I buy by boxes so I believe its too much of a gamble. So, if they were cheaper I would buy those two cigars.
MountMandolin Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 Oh man, a few come to mind straight away. Lusitanias — Absolutely no-brainer, as anyone who has smoked one knows. Also, I'm a Partagas fan, big time. Luckily, they come in 10's, so I can still smoke them. But man it would be nice to be able to buy a whole box of 25. Partagas 8-9-8 — Basically the same thing as above. But again, they come in 10's, so yay. Plus, I love a Lonsdale. Cohiba Lancero — Easily the best cigar I've ever smoked was a 2008 CoLa, not even a contest—and it was a gift. To this day it is still the only Cohiba I've ever smoked, and the reason for that is the price, plain and simple. Thinking about buying a box of them when I finish my grad school program, though at this rate I might be 40 by then, and I shudder to think what they will cost by then. There are others, such as any and all DC's. Quite a few of those that I haven't tried (but would like to), like Hoyo and Punch. Luckily I don't go for Monte's too much, so none of the usual suspects there. Still never had a 520 or an A. Would love to try the Connie A though.
Moogypug Posted August 14, 2014 Posted August 14, 2014 Anything Cohiba for me. There is no doubt I love them. But man, their mark up kills me some times. My favorites that I would buy every month if they were cheaper (I'm sure many would agree): CoRo Behike 52 Behike 54 Lanceros VI IV My dream is to have the entire Siglo line and Behike line stocked at the same time in my humidor. One can only dream....
Lasabar Posted August 15, 2014 Posted August 15, 2014 Cohiba scares me a bit. I've only done 3 packs or 5ers of Cohiba's. But I'm so close to a box of CoRo that I can taste it.
CanuckSARTech Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 Cohiba lanceros, esplendidos, and Trini Fundadores.

dowjr1 Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 Anything BHK...plus Connie A...paying up for the it cigar of the day.
ramon_cojones Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 I love esplendidos and would have more if they weren't so much. My 09s are smoking fabulous, we passed one around and 2 of the guys said it was the best they've had in a decade.
mgravito Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 BHK54 for me. Not the best cigar I've ever had but it's damned good and consistently good. The smoking experience is spot on every time. Second is the Trinidad Robusto T. They just hit me right. Not everyone's cup of tea but definitely one of my favorites. I would smoke them daily if I could. Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk 1
1LegLance Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 As others have said the EL's, RE's, GE's and all that other special release crap really has me pissed off. I am huge fan of Ramon Allones & SLR but with the cost of the special ones there is too much pressure for the stick to be amazing. Honestly I am pretty cheap and smoke a lot of the Jose Peidras, Minutos, PC and smaller sticks since I go through 7-10 sticks a week. It is hard for me to justify anything over $10 a stick when that means I could have enjoyed 2 sticks at $5 ea. I would go for up to 20% more for something special but that has rarely been the case, usually it is much much more.
canucks6024 Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 898's. Everyone loves them. But I always find something else that seems like better value for the same price.
Guest gerlinan Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 100% on board with the Punch S.D.O E.L. 2013. What a cigar! I bought a box earlier this year and they are amazing...but pricey! Gentleman, you may smoke
almudawi Posted September 13, 2014 Posted September 13, 2014 Ramon Allones Phoeniciosos 30 Edmundo Dantes 109 La a Gloria cubana Deliciosos Cohiba 1966
CanuckSARTech Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Ramon Allones Phoeniciosos 30 Edmundo Dantes 109 La a Gloria cubana Deliciosos Cohiba 1966 Curious - why do you say that on the Deliciosos? Are you talking orig release retail pricing, or the aftermarket / resale pricing?
Maplepie Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 Curious - why do you say that on the Deliciosos? Are you talking orig release retail pricing, or the aftermarket / resale pricing? probably after value market. like the Infantes... 2000USD/jar is kinda a put off
CanuckSARTech Posted September 15, 2014 Posted September 15, 2014 probably after value market. like the Infantes... 2000USD/jar is kinda a put off Well, that's what I want to find out from him. And, $2k USD is high for those. They're about $1500-$1600.
