    How about a cigar thread?

    Going from lurking to posting....
    I'm MUCH more comfortable discussing cigars and LEARNING about firearms.
    I'll continue to read. If you want to talk cigars...........
    What are ya' smokin'?

    Nothin' wrong with that! There are some, and some more to come, that are coming out
    in the $5 region. GREAT time to be a cigar smoker.
    As a side note, for you non-cigar-smokers, my cigar shop, and I would assume
    MANY cigar shops are the safest places in town. EVERYONE carries......

    Curly tops taste good and are cheap, construction is so-so tho. I prefer a milder smoke with a light or shade wrapper.

    I quit smoking cigars long ago.I can't even remember what it was I smoked.They were mild and compared to a cuban about 5 bucks each.

    I think they are a "mixed" filler, thus the lower price. It's tough to compete with a $2.50 cigar, and that one is about as good
    as it gets at that price.
    I tend to smoke a stronger cigar, so I'm not the best one to recommend a mild(er) cigar at the lower end of the pricing spectrum.
    Wait! Perdomo has some new stuff out. Long filler and $4ish.....
    A bit more then $2.50 though.

    Every once in awhile I splurge on a Fonseca 10-10. I inhale a bit so I don't want anything too stout.

    The online sales usually dictate what I will be smoking. I cleaned up on that big sale Famous had on Acid here awhile back. so they have been a regular here lately.

    Try one of The Kuba Kubas.
    You will either love it or hate it.
    It is an infused cigar but one of the best smokes I have ever tried.

    Let’s just say they are different. some of the line like Kong cameroon has distinct flavors that can be put into words but the Kuba Kuba is not something I can describe.

    Good one, indeed!
    They are infused with "botanicals", whatever that is?
    Patchouli is one of the botanicals, I think?
    Do NOT co-mingle them with your other sticks.
    And, yes, you'll either love them or hate them.

    I just bought a bundle of dark wrapped Consuegras from JR. Best deal out there for an everyday smoke. They are seconds from the factory that produces Punch, Hoyo de Monterrey and others. For a few more bucks I like the CAO Brazilia or an El Rey del Mundo, and for a few more bucks I like a nice contraband Cohiba.

    I had a ton of cigar links the the old gunsnet site. Guess I'll try to get some of those back.

    Ah, yes. The infamous "Connie's"! They've been around for ever!
    "A 'few' more bucks"? Not compared to Connie's!

    I use to like smoking Punch and Baccarat cigars for a number of years, but can't find'em anymore. Cohibas too, when I felt flush. Lately I've been enjoying these cheapie stogies from the local cigar shop, they're called __Garcia-something, a nice mild, even-burning smoke that goes for less than $3 apiece.
