I like the Antanos, but I find most of them smoke best after 7 days dry boxing. I need to get the humidity down to 60% or just below that and they become a really great smoke for the money.

Here are mine:

JDN Antano 1970 Alisado - these are really exceptional box pressed version of the classic blend - great body, lots of spice...

JDN Machito - this is powerhouse of a small corona and super delish. I am actually surprised this one doesn't get much love online because by the #s it is the perfect cigar for all the cigargeeks searching for smaller, potent smokes - good price on it to... anyhow, these imo are one of the best.

JDN Cabinetta Toro - great balance, smooth, creamy, right amount of spice, but definitely not a nic-bomb, I really find this a relaxing smoke, in fact I smoke this cigar often in the morning.

JDN Cabinetta No. 27 Double Corona - new size being launched - it is more of the Toro which for me is a good thing.

JDN Classico Toro Claro - this is one of those cigars nobody ever talks about, been around forever and is imo one of the best mild-medium blends in the marketplace. When I want mild, I grab one of these...

I am not a big Dark Corojo fan, I find it to be overwhelming in the strength department so for me it is a occasional, but when I do decide to punish myself I smoke the Peligroso - it is 5 x 44 of hurt me so good.

In the MUWAT department, I definitely favor the "Bait Fish" - its 4 x 44 format is my cup of tea.

Well if it's Saka's favorite size it must be worth trying...



Anyway, I have had mixed results with draw on the Antano lancero (and J. Drew even admitted to me that they have never really gotten the draw correct on the Antano Lancero), but every once in a while I get one that isn't too tight... and WOW. What a fantastic smoke, Which is why I'm dying to get some Cabinetta lanceros.

Mr. Drew... where can I find the Cabinetta Lancero, dude?!!!

Doc and Sean, we have Cabinetta Lancero at the shop I work at. Cigarking.com and if they aren't on the website give us a call on Monday. We can do 5 packs on them for a good price.
