Comparable and contrast...

Haven't seen a comparable/contrast thread yet so I thought lets get one started.
The whole idea is to name a smoke i.e. 5 Vegas gold, and then name something like it i.e. Gurkha Park Avenue. Or Vice Versa.
Might be a cool way to find some new sticks.

    For me - RP Olde World Reserve Maduro is comparable to RP Decade Torpedo

    I also feel that any DPG cigar is comparable to any other DPG cigar ;)

    lol, you need to try more of these. There are far too many on here that disagree with you - not just to say they are ok, but that they are GREAT! Hell, I'd send you one if I had any on hand.

    the 5 vegas series A is a toned down version of the partagas black.

    i kinda find the sancho panza extra fuerte to be similar to the punch gran puro.


    i am looking for a cigar that is similar to the Cusano corojo 97
    any thoughts?

    I found the Oliva serie O Maduro and San Cristobal to be very similar in taste

    Does anything taste like the Gurkha Centurian, 5 Vegas Classic, or Nub Cameron?

    I think the Alec Bradley Harvest Selection 1997 is similar to the 5 Vegas Classic.

    Had a CAO Gold today and it reminded me a lot of the C.com Purple Label, which was one of the few C.com's that I really enjoyed.

    Would you care to share? Even Betasynn thought so... They have differnet "bodies" but I do find big similarities in their flavor profile... I am talking abt the Liga Privada No.9 MADURO btw...

    I think the Super Fuerte is a bit stronger and more flavorful, but they are along the same lines. Let me know what you think, kinda wanna know if I am the only one who gets this off these two.
