Default Happy birthday to me!

Yes, it's my birthday.

Girlfriend want's to buy me a box of cigars, says her budget would be around 60-70 dollars. I've been looking around and really can't find much for that that I would be interested in. Since I am not buying, I think it would be nice to get a 5er of something that I normally wouldn't ever pay for.

So what are some high end 5 packs that I am just not thinking of?

I prefer medium full or full bodied sticks.

What have you smoked in the past and enjoyed in that price range/profile? That might help in providing suggestions.

TBH the most expensive stick I have ever had was just a Liga Privada No9... I liked it a lot.

In that price range, my experience is extremely limited. My price range is more or less 4-5 dollars a stick or less.

I think around $75 you get could get a box of LGC. I found a few nice deals for boxes of good sticks that might meet your taste profile in the ci and famous catalog that just got sent.
Oh and Happy Birthday

You could get a box of Brick House or Gran Habano. Or you could get frisky and get a handful of some Liga or other more expensive cigars.

Default Re: Happy birthday to me!

You can find a ton of boxes in that range. Hit the sites and look at sales of specials. Or treat yourself. I just picked up a six year aged tin of OPUSX's for well under the said budget and I love them ALOT!!!! It was a great treat and I still have two for other special occasions.

Oh yea....Happy birthday mang.

Happy Birthday!!!

If you are interested, I'm doing a box split of Tat Cojonu 2012 in GB/splits subforum. They are suppose to be some mighty fine sticks!

Otherwise, any Tat, LP, or Viaje would be nice! The J21 might be a little much (isn't that like really full-bodied/ spicy?)

I loved the J21. It had a mild spice, but not too much. Very smooth.

Happy Birthday Derrick! It's my birthday today too (33). Go to the Devil site and find some fiver you wouldn't normally buy due to price.

Better yet, find some FOG who's willing to sell you a fiver from the bottom of some forgotten about coolidor.

I'd go with a fiver of Anejo's or PAM 64 principes or monarcas. Probably the latter.

I think someone was selling Viaje samplers in the WTS section. If I hadn't blown my budget already I would have been all over it.
