havanaclub7 Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 For smaller sized cigars I also like the Montecristo tubos and the occasional Punch Coronations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Candido Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 » Just curious what everyone recommends. Monarch tubos are #1 for me. I am not a big tubo smoker, but I do love the current RyJ Short Churchills in Tubes. I have not tried many other current offerings. I have some old Punch Churchill Tubos I like (from around 1997) and I have some Upmann Monarch Tubos from the same time period, but they may have become too mild for me.... I liked them both when they came out. My favorite all-time tubo? No question. Dunhill Estupendo. Good luck finding one. They are out there, but the last time I checked, the price was about $400 to $700 per smoke! They are incredible. I think I prefer them to Davidoff Dom Perignon's which is no small statement. Still I am not sure even this masterpiece is worth anything near what they go for these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

56Tweed Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I don't smoke many tubos, but I do like the Siglo IIs Tubos. The RyJ Short Churchill was a nice addition as well. I really loved the old Punch and Upmann Monarch(as) A/T. I wish they didn't disco the Punch. :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandholm Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 » Just curious what everyone recommends. Monarch tubos are #1 for me. tubos, no question, Romeo y Julieta Churchill Tubos Questions, when you buy/get a tubos, how do you store them? Just putting them in the humidor, unscrewing the cap, or taking the cigar out of the tube? I usually just unscrew the cap. cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taino Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 Probably I'll be the only one saying this, but I like the H.Upmann Coronas Jr. Tubos. Not a fancy smoke or my favorite, but I find it a good all around smoke to carry an open when you are on the road or fishing. Also a good cigar to give away to not regular cigar smoking friends. I live my tubos open at the humidor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Professor Twain Posted February 27, 2008 Share Posted February 27, 2008 I leave my tubos closed up tight and then when I open them to smoke them they have a heavenly aroma. I don't see a lot of advantage in buying tubos and then not using them to keep the cigars partially sealed up. I would add to the list above, Bolivar Tubos #3s, these are a tiny cigar with a lot of flavor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to crack loose the caps until managing that became a pain due to volume. I simply throw my Tubo's in my humidor now. They should age fine without being opened (or god forbid, removed from the tubes.) I age my vintage tubos in the tubes... For me, this is mainly a few Dunhill Estupendos... Cigars certainly age differently in tubos. I have not figured out my favorite way to store cigars, but I am leaning towards Porcelain jars lately. They are a pain to manage, but the results are always very good! Cheers, DC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
