Ok don't shoot me, the PDR Obsidian was unexpectedly well balanced and complex enough to more than justify it's cost. I had the 4.5x60 and was completely and happily surprised. Looking into a box of these.

Second this, great little sticks.
Partagas Aristocrats as well, didn't expect them to be as good as they are.

Why would we shoot you for liking a cigar, LOL? I haven't had one of the Obsidians yet, but I do keep hearing good things.
Going to have to say this one as well. Ended up lighting a second one last night after enjoying the first so much

AB american sun grown really surprised me. also the flores y rodriguez habano.
Indian Tabac Maduro. Aged in the humidor 7 or 8 months. After a good old Chicago beef sandwich for lunch, that cigar is awesome. I always seem to pick them up in cheapo samplers.
Cain Daytona for me. I wasn't a fan of the Cain OR or the Cain F (aside from the lancero), but I find I really enjoy the Daytona in the smallest vitola it comes in. I think its either a corona or petite corona. And they can be had for right @ 4 bucks a stick!
You and me both, I've bought a lot of let downs lately.
I've been going to CC's more and more lately, which seem to give me what I'm looking for. Just smoked another $15 NC that was so-so, and I'm getting sick of it.
That's how I roll.
Smoked a Soledad robusto (A Famous brand I think) and it was insanely good for a mild/cheap cigar! It must of had some decent age on it bc the cello was browning. Have a few more without dark cellos that I should compare to.
Also a +1 on the fuego origen originals, really tasty and would never figure at first glance!!

I agree... Everyone's taste buds are different, but if you keep trying,
with so many offerings, you're sure to find something you like.
