"cheap" smokes

[strife]

The nub cameroon and habano are good $4-$5 smokes. The La Flor Dominicana double ligero are in the general price range and are one of my favorite everydays.

Wow, just paid $12 at my local B&M for that same LFD. Damn Long Island prices.

flor de oliva bundles are freakin awesome....

Hmmm, I must try these. Been looking for a good Connie at a reasonable price.
Thanks Ron.

For example I love the Perdomo ESV, and routinely get them for about $3.50/stick on special, but at my local B&M they are $11/stick for the Toro size!!

Anyone ever try the Perdomo ESV 2nds from CI ?

TIA

I have, and I like them. Medium body, with a boatload of flavor. I had an issue with the wrappers bursting until I started laying them down for a couple of months before I smoked them. That cured that issue for me.

Also a couple of my "low buck" favorites:

El Rico Habano (at $3.00-$4.00 depending on the size), and DPG Fumadores at two fifty per stick, or there abouts.

if you like a big, strong and dark stick, taboo's special forces with their 30percent off coupon is a heck of a stick. the toro is a 6 x 60 whopper that is discounted to around 5 bucks.

Excalibur Epicure Maduro (robusto) is one of my favs. Only $3.50 a stick for the box price.

I second the recommendation on the Oliva "Flor De Oliva" bundles.

I just got in 300 sticks of them last week! :guitar:

Damn, share the share man....... lol

give the Ambos Mundos a try if you already haven't (~5 bux).

Pretty good sticks in my opinion.

I really enjoy these as well!

So far the best bang for the buck I've found was the Nestor Reserve Maduro. One of my "C.I. connoisseur" buddies(I won't hold it against him on this one) recommended me go in half on a 25 bundle of Nester Maduro Reserve Torpedos. It was around $50 I think. I decided to pitch in so I could have a few give away/go away sticks. I tried one and decided to keep the rest. By far, an amazing stick considering it's price.
