Want to Build My Taste Profile

BullSquatchBullSquatch Posts: 563 ✭✭✭✭✭

I am looking to build my personal taste profile. I am looking for suggestions on daily smokes. I really enjoy Flor de Oliva, My Father Flor de Antillas, New World & Nub Maduro. Any smokes very similar in profile at a daily smoke price? Thanks for the help. Cheers!

    I am also in NC. Mooresville. Thanks for the suggestion. Is it a medium to full body stick?

    @BullSquatch if you like Olivas try the Serie O & G, I like the G better because it has a Cameroon wrapper. I believe the O is Habano, but both are very good. I recently had an Espinosa EO 21, and that was pretty good too.

    @TheKraken I just had a G while on vacation in Destin. It was really good, but a little high for a daily smoke. What's the price per stick you are seeing on those?

    I've gotten a box here for $125, so $5 a pop. I waited to get an upgrade with a 5er of Serie V Melanio's too, so ended up being a great deal. I've learned from these folks to wait for sales

    Five for $20-$25 maybe less on a bid site

    Yeah I need to check that out. What's your favorite bid site? I use CI regularly.

    New World Cameroon is a medium body.
    Most cameroons usually fall in that range.
    The New World cameroon can be found on deals for less than $80/box.

    This may be a little outdated, but if you liked the Oliva G, then may be of interest.

    Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy cigars and that's close enough.

    I think one cigar that has a lot of flavors and transitions is Illusione's Epernay line. A little more on the pricey side (~$10 per stick), but well worth the experience!
