Your fav? RobG turned me onto Oliva MB3's from Holts... 20 sticks, various size bundle $84 after shipping... https://www.holts.com/samplers/all-c...ster-deal.html For me it's the best deal out there.... Change my mind... Dan

This is going to be an awesome thread. I asked about budget cigars.
I got some Romeo and Juliet bix of 20 lanceros with free box of 10. I think it was 150. Famous smoke shop. Sent via Tapatalk Knight of Christendon |

I smoke a square metric shit ton of tobacco. Cigars are everything to me, because I no longer drink and I no longer stuff myself with food. I smoke 3-5 cigars a day, so I have gone through some bundles. I can't tell you details of notes of caramel,nutmeg and sweaty socks, but I can tell you what I like and don't like here lately.
All these are from CI: Ichiban Natural and Maduro _ GREAT mild cigar, burns well, tastes good. CI Alts - My Uncle insists on buying these, and all in Churchill. Not my fav size, but comes in handy riding the zero turn around. All of them are serviceable yard cigars, none too offensive, but OTOH you're not gonna be mistaking these for Opus X either. Brickhouse Fumas _ pretty decent but mixed filler, generally not a fan of mixed filler cigars but they at least taste decent. Not much like a Brickhouse to me, but I digress. Perdomo Mistakes - I always get the pyramid of these and they are always a medium full bodied nice Nicaraguan type smoke. They have been creeping up in price in the past two years or so, but they still are a decent deal. Flor de Olivia Maduro - These have REALLY gone off a cliff, quality wise, in the past year. Price has almost doubled and I have rarely had one burn straight and taste 'right' all the way through. I' m not a fan of the natural, go figure, YMMV

Damn shame, to be honest, that they did that. Punch SS 1&2 and R'S were fine. I THINK they still make BPC or BCJ.
