Best NC for the money
 
What, in your opinion is the best NC for the money, in terms of taste, construction, and consistency?

Thanks!

Oliva G any size

I love Oliva V Lancero's. If you can find them available, they are roughly $4 and are one of the best NC Lancero's I've had. Never had a twisted one, and if you don't smoke it too fast so it the heat doesn't get intense, it's quite a stick.

straight up value CFO #7 reserva for sure. Not an amazing smoke, and bad ones are not too infrequent, but consistently good and for 50 cents a pop there is no better value.

Smoke Naked

it is the cigar factory outlet

Great friendly people to deal with, best bet is to call and talk to barb to place your order. I just submitted it over their website the first time I ordered from them and it felt like it took forever to get my smokes.

Best cigar for the money?

The one I buy the most is the RP Sun Grown because it's my fav, making it the best for the money to ME. :D

Now the best for the lowest amount of money is the Sancho Panza Double Maduro Quixote for $3.00

cheap: FDO Maduro, Maria Mancini
Mid range: Partagas Black, Gurkha MAster Select, CAO Gold Maduro

Or pretty much any of the x000M line. Also the SP Double Maduro.

One of the Padron x000 maduros.

Re: Best NC for the money
 
HdM Excallibur Maduro. The V in particular. Two bucks a stick and so tasty.

And as long as Padron is the topic, the Londres is the best of their regular line.

Scottw 02-19-2009 07:32 AM

Re: Best NC for the money
 
Padron X000's. Great stick, great smoke, great price.

taltos 02-19-2009 08:16 AM

Re: Best NC for the money
 
My choices would be 5 Vegas Classic and Oliva Serie G Maduro although the answer would be whatever cigar that you feel is a bargain to you.

LordOfWu 02-19-2009 08:22 AM

Re: Best NC for the money
 
I would vote for the AF 858 Maduro...reasonable price for a great tasting, well made cigar!

shilala 02-19-2009 08:29 AM

Re: Best NC for the money
 
Sancho Panza Double Maduro or Extra Fuerte, definately. Cheap and delicious. Incredible value.
The best though, to me, at msrp are Anejos and JJ Maduros. For 10-ish and 6-ish bucks respectively, they are well worth the price.
I suppose if I ironed it out, the best all-around choice for me would be the JJ Maduro, especially at sale prices.

s15driftking 02-19-2009 09:10 AM

Re: Best NC for the money
 
Man, all this Sancho Panza Double MAduro Talk.... i'm going to have to get on a couple of those!

Oh and to Taltos, the Oliva G maduro is awesome, i almost forgot about that stick. Also, the Perdomo Habano Maduro, tasty and reasonably cheap!

DPG Blacks and Blues and 601 reds. You can find them all on sale at CI from time to time in the $3 - $4 range.

lightning9191 02-19-2009 01:13 PM

Re: Best NC for the money
 
I'd have to go with Padron 2000 (or any other x000s or Londres).

Oliva G Maddie and PARTAGAS BLACK:ss

Re: Best NC for the money
 
For the money:

La Veija Habana The Early Years line, especially the "silencio" size. Tons of Nicaraguan flavors in a great shorter smoke format for around $1.60/stick or so.

Re: Best NC for the money
 
At $3 per stick, they ain't cheap, but they taste amazing.

I'm talking about the Tatuaje Petite. http://www.newhavanacigars.com/Tatua...-petit-box.htm

I'm never without some in my stash. I'm down to my last 20 though, so may have to order another cab soon.

Mine is a Helix Purple. It has a great spice and i've never had one fall apart on me.

Taboo Twist is a pretty good bang for the buck if you ask me.

neoflex 02-19-2009 07:34 PM

Re: Best NC for the money
 
On the cheap, I say Omar Ortez Originals. Best value for the money if you can find them at a good price, Pepin Blue Labels, any of them.

Smokin Gator 02-19-2009 07:41 PM

Re: Best NC for the money
 
For me it is the Pepin Blue corona gorda... yes they only come in cabs of 50 from CI... but at about $3 a stick from cbid they cannot be beat for me!!!

My other one is the 601 Green corona. Again, they are in larger boxes... 40 sticks... but I love 'em and for the price I will keep them around.
