There's something about a corojo!

I really enjoy the few corojo's I've had. In fact, sometimes you really just know exactly what you want, that's when I reach for a Vibe corojo. They are, to me, a perfect cigar. Fairly inexpensive, delicious, dependable, delicious, burn extremely well...did I mention delicious?

So, a couple of questions for you all.

1. What are some other excellent corojo's that I should seek out?

2. What is your go to, dependable smoke that you reach for when nothing else will do? Your comfort stick, if you will.

I like the don Tomas Corojo. The one wrapped in tissue.
For an inexpensive bundle cigar, the Flor de Oliva Corojo is pretty good also.

I don't really have a "go to" cigar, but I always know that a Torano Exodus 1959 and a Bolivar 654 maduro will be excellent smokes every time. These are two of my favorites. Although there are many more, these come to mind first.

I second the Don Pepin black label. My favorite Pepin and a great Corojo smoke.

I smoked a Don Pepin Cuban Classic last night for the first time and it was delightful. I may have to smoke a few more to truely become a "ho".
