As I stated in my intro thread I got interested in quality cigars after a few cohiba habanos while in Mexico. I've been smoking one every day or other day for about 2 wks now after work, just to hang out and relax. I dont really have any friends that enjoy them to give me recommendations and here is what i've tried so far. I hope I can remember them all. I def cant remember the size or whatever the word is for that.
RYJ Cedro Deluxe #2, liked it
Oliva Serie V, not so much
RYJ Habana Reserve, meh....ok
Montecristo no 2 Habano (from a guy at work), AWESOME
Montecristo Platinum Robusto, Favorite so far
Arturo Fuente gran reserva, hardly any flavor, VERY mild, not so much
Macanudo Gold Label (co-worker's fav), did not care for it
Casa Magna (not the Cigar of the year size, longer), was ok but not favorite
Rocky Patel connecticut (white and gold band), pretty good
Rocky Patel Summer Blend, 2nd fav so far
Tonight I have an Oliva (serie G I believe) that is my last until I make a run tomorrow. Ill let you guys know what I think about it.
I've been trying to pay alot of attention to the flavors and details of each one to see what I like about them. I'm def going to pick up more than one of the Monte Platinums this week. But with SO many choices out there its hard to not just get a bunch of diff singles everytime.
You guys got any recommendations based off of what my likes/dislikes are as stated above?
