Hey yall! I’m Ross...., if any of you have any recommendations for budget friendly cigars I would love to hear it. I have a picky palette.
Watch the "What are you smoking threads" for ideas, then look up the cigars being smoked. Some will not be "budget" cigars, but you can figure out how they fit into your budget. I've been smoking cigars for more than 50 years now, and I see cigars I've never seen before in those threads weekly. Welcome to the forum, hope that helps.
