Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
Just looking at the thread. While in NC. I visited the J&R Outlet
Their Alternative bundles. I bought J&R Alternative to H. Hupman Rothchild (Maduro) about a 5X 50. Medium body, well made. Very Solidly constructed. Not a soft Cigar. a bundle of 20 = about $30 J.R Alt. To Punch Gran Diadema Maduro 7” X 52 Ring Med to Heavy Full Flavor Burns Nice $30 for bundle of 20 Both Cigars are great in a car trip. Enjoyable, Satisfying & Not Expensive. Hope you enjoy them. Lenny |
Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
Gotta love the Famous Nic 3000.

Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
One suggestion, for the newbies: type out the full name of the cigar. It took me a while to figure out that SPEF is Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte. I was looking for a company called Spef Cigars. :r

Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
Bahia Blue at CI $35/20. I'm not sure if these (like other CI closeouts) are slightly different or if they just need to age; but so far they don't seem quite as good as the BB's I have smoked in the past. At $1.75 a stick however they are still a good cigar at a great price.
Vigilante Petite Corona Corojo $30/25 - I recall seeing these arrive at my favorite shop in Texas, Two Brothers and commenting that they would soon be in the closeout bins. While these were marketed as being made in "Rocky Patel's Factories" (which are actually owned and operated by Nestor Plascencia), they didn't have the slick man's name all over them. If Nording cigars by Rocky Patel couldn't make it, why would a cigar with a retarded name like Vigilante and a $5 price tag for the PC survive? It was definitely less than a year before they were 1/2 price; I think I gave in and bought a box when they dropped to $45. These are a decent smoke for the price. They aren't kick you in the face Corojo, but a milder Corojo blend. They still have ample spice and flavor, and lack the "vegetal" notes that are exhibited by many of the cigars that Patel markets. Suprisingly similar blend to the "Vibe" cigars that EO brands did a better job marketing.. Vega Talanga Tercio Corona - just enjoyable enough that I would consider buying again. The cigar is below what I would call "good" but a worthwhile smoke; the only $1 CI stick I would suggest to a friend. |
Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
The Leoninos by La Aurora sure is a tasty cigar for under $2.00 each.
Disclaimer: I've only smoked two of them but really enjoyed both. |

Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
I have been in love with this line as of late, and am still waiting for another buy one get one free box deal:
Famous Private Selection Nicaraguan Corojo - especially the corona, uses a '99 corojo wrapper IIRC, and this is also reaching I know, but I smoked an older (5-6months) Tat J21 just before one, and I found it eerily similar in flavor. This smoke is made by TT and IIRC, Pepin buys a lot of tobacco from them still. Hell of a smoke, and wished it was in bundles for even more savings, instead of famous' boxes. Either way, perfect construction, and awesome rich flavor. |

They're right around $3 on cbid. I think Joe Cigar had them recently (10) for $29.99, and the Quick Buy on the auction is around that, too. Also the Saint Luis Rey maddies are quite good. And the price is right at (25) for $71 at Famous. Chemyst:cool2: |

Actually, the Gurkha Regents (regular & Nepalese Warriors) can usually be had for $2.50 or less on the Devil Site (CBid), and you can get the San Luis Reys at Mike's Cigars for way less than Famous - $52.95 for the box of 25 Rothchilds & $61.95 for 25 Toros. And their shipping is cheaper than Famous ($2.50/item). :) |

Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
First I would like to say Its nice to have a new list now hopefully with help from everyone we could make a nice list bigger than tmax's old list. As a suggestion as in the tmax OP he included $4 dollar and i think $5 dollar smokes too.
I have 3 to add to the list if interested. First off EO #21 (I happen to be smoking one now) Good Cheap Mild-Med from the guys at United Tobacco at Ci they go for $35 to $40 for a bundle of 21 so that puts them at $1.90 for the most expensive sticks Second and third as they are the same smoke only difference is one has ligero and the other does not. they are a Rocky Cigars House Blend (blended by DPG but as we all know he has stopped doing a lot of his house blends but they claim they kept the blend just new makers.) I like this cigar as it is Cheap and is a Corojo Wrapped Corillo Filled Cigar (pepin style blend without the pepin price) They go for $43 to $50 for a box of 25 and currently they are throwing in 5 extra for a total of 30. That puts the most exp boxes at $1.60 a stick. Lastly Tat P's at least the Robusto and Corona Gorda vitolas the last time i got them though was before SCHIP so someone might have to check this with a call to Atlantic as the last time i got a box it was a box of 31 for $75 which makes it $2.40 a stick. This may not be correct still so with the schip i don't know if it will still make it under the $3 mark but i bet it still will cause with that box count it would have to cost more than $93 to go over the $3 mark. I actually think all Sizes of this smoke may make it. If you are weary of putting this on a list just shoot atlantic an email and they will send you the prices. Sorry for the long post, Thanks for getting this thread going on this board! |
Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
the Fumadores by JPG are great for less than $2 most of the time. Holts runs them for $29.95 a box every other catalog.

Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
I'd like to add petrus reposado to the list. They are very tasty and can be had for under $50 a box.

Re: Cheap Smoke Thread
$2.25 retail (in KY) for a Pepin made cigar!! Life is good my friends.
Tabacos Baez Series S F (short filler) is my new favorite morning smoke. I pulled apart a nub and would guess the cigar has 3 full size leaves and the rest is sandwiched clippings. The cigar holds ash quite well so I have no concern enjoying them in my car. |

I stand corrected, I am glad the Fumadores weren't missed they are a great inexpensive cigar.
Any one ever have Carlos Torano Dominicos Maduro's. I like most all the Torano stuff so I picked up a box of 25 for 31 bucks. I am sure there no 59 gold but I'm gonna give them a shot. |

Just picked up 3 more bundles of the LHOs. 2 coronas bundles and 1 robusto bundle. They are starting to run low on the coronas. Pick them up now if you like that size
