Which would you buy?
 
So I'm currently going to order a 5 capacity herfidor, and want to order a 5 pack of cigars too. I think I've narrowed it down to CAO Brazilia Gol or Diesel Unholy Cocktail. Ordering from CI. Unless you guys recommend a better place.

lol. I actually just saw they have a herf-n-go pack for $35. There is a dominican sampler that includes:

Herfidor - 5 capacity

Macanudo Hyde park
Cohiba Red Dot
LGC Wavell
Partagas naturales
Partagas black classico

Oh, and it comes with a cutter and lighter too. And free shipping!

So, that and 1 more 5 pack... hmmm..... I really like the Brazilia gol, but haven't had the diesel.

i just smoked a diesel earlier today. I'm not a fan of maddies but THAT was DELICIOUS!

I prefer the diesel over the brazila

A huge +1 on the diesel.

damnit. I bought the brazilia because i've had it and like it. going to a music festival in a week, and wanted to be sure I.m liking what i smoke. Oh well. Maybe next time. At least i know the diesel should be good.

I love the hell out of CAO's Brazilia. Easily one of my top 5 favorite cigars I have smoked. I think it was a wise choice.

If you like the Brazilias then go for it. It's all about what you like not what we like.

Try the diesels later.

I've had both, Diesel's good but like the CAO better. It's all personal taste.

I have had them both, and I would have to say that they are easily two of my favorites. You didn't choose wrong, but either way would have worked.

They are both great cigars.

I currently have and smoke both of them. Great cigars, cant go wrong with either one.

Brazilia has a great flavor profile, and CAO rolls pretty consistent sticks.

I recommend a much larger Herf-a-dor! :)

two entirely diffrent cigars, especially the wrappers si its like comparing apples tp oranges. I have smoked both and they both really good cigars the diesel being more medium and the Brazilia leans towards full. Do love that pennsylvania broadleaf on the Diesel thou.

Something about the name...I can't bring myself to smoke something named after the junk I put in my truck....mental hurdles that I can't jump I gues :r

Hard to go wrong either way. Brazilia is one of CAO's best, and the Diesel is just damn tasty. :ss

Re: Which would you buy?
 
The 5 count was a near success! I smoked my last stick Saturday afternoon (didn't leave til Sunday mid day). SO glad I brought full sized smokes! Just need to bring more next time.

Also glad the headache, heartburn, and hangover are all gone now. lol.
