Looking for recommendations
G'day gents! I'm looking for some recommendations to replace an old favorite.
Historically, I've kept two, and sometimes three boxes of JR ULT PC Oscuro in the coolerdor. Right now, I have exactly two (2) individual cigars of that make. Wanting to try something of the same format (petite corona, 4.62 x 43 ish), med-full bodied, and a similarly dark wrapper. Other than variety, the price point is important also. The Ult has gone from a $2.25 cigar to almost $4 (current JR box prices) in the las dozen years or so, so in the $3.25 cpc or less range. What are you buying? Not just flagging specials and deals. TIA

I don't have any recommendations, but JR's prices just keep rising. I rarely buy anything from them now. With their price increases, and having to pay taxes, they just aren't competitive anymore.

You might want to try Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte Cordobas. They're 5.1 x 44 with beautiful dark rosado wrappers. Current box price from CI is about $3.31 a stick.
I always have some on hand. They're in my regular rotation.

I don't think I have ever had an Ult in oscuro that I didn't have something nice to say about.
