Favorite Joya de Nicaragua

[SlipperyPete]

Gotta go dark for me. However, unless i am thinking of something else, there was an antano lancero that was really good.

 

[Jadawin]

I really like the Cabinetta series and the Dark Corojo. one on the milder side and then a nice and heavy cigar.

Antano Gran Consul is and always will be a staple in my humidor, I feel the antano is one of the unsung heroes of the cigar world.

I like just about everything they make.
The celebration is my favorite.

word for word me

I absolutely love the Antano 1970 consul and gran consul

Was so looking forward to this cigar. Got a 5er and everyone was plugged!

FML! :ballbounc

1970 Antano PR....I was readily waiting for the Antano DC, but not as good as I had hoped. Still a really good smoke IMHO, but a little too heavy in the hand, like Jack said; some were a little plugged. Had to get out my poker to loosen the draw

thinking about buying a box of the 1970 Antano lanceros...very tempting

I love the JdN Celebration. The same blend as the Antaño series except for a mellower Habanos seed criollo wrapper. Yummy!

 

[Presbo]

I too used to smoke this brand. Back in the 80's but seems that the taste or blend has gone?

 

[CigarMan Andy]

JdNA Antano 1970 Belicoso is one of my go to smokes.

 

[Zen Cigar Man]

antano gran consul of course!

I love the Antano Churchill... I let a 5'er mellow in the box for a year, and it each stick wasn't as much of a kick in the nuts. I'm super curious to try the Dark, and the Celebration. Anyone wanna swap a few sticks?

Antano Gran Consul - one of my all-time favorite smokes and a regular go-to. The dark corojo are pretty good too.

Me likes the new JDN Cabinetta Lanceros right now. They are hitting exceptional and have an explosive draw for a Lancero.
Best,
JD

I used to favor the 1970 Antano but now, the Cabinetta (Toro) is my go to JDN.

 

[sean]

Still tasting the Dark Corojo from last night... loved it so much, I'm pickin' myself up a box next chance I get.

 

[L8A]

The Series C is by far my favorite if you can find them anymore.

 

[Poohdvm]

JDN Antano is one of my favorite brands. I love the nicotine kick. I call these my "poor mans Opus". My absolute favorite size is the Lancero. To me it is the best size for the best smoke experience with the Antano. I also like the Machita, nice short smoke. Good for breakfast(lol).

the Celebration is milder than the regular Antano line to me. So I don't smokem unless someone gives me one. Good smoke but just not my flavor profile.

The Dark Corojo is tasty. I find it has different and stronger flavors than the Antano with the same nicotine kick. I also like these.

For someone who hasn't had any JDN I would reccomend the Celebration and work your way up from there.

I love the JdN Celebration. The same blend as the Antaño series except for a mellower Habanos seed criollo wrapper. Yummy!

Did not know this. Perhaps I should give a try after all.....

Love the dark tho.

 

[dowjr1]

So on the strength scale, I guess the 1970 Antano is tops followed by Dark Corojo and then maybe the Celebracion?

 

[Fia]

It kind of depends on my mood but my two favorites right now are the Dark Corojo and the Cabinetta. As JD mentioned, the lanceros are right tasty!!! Nice draw and a great toasty finish!!!:ccool:
