Default Recommend me some long smoke

Watching the big season opener with 3 of my good friends. They all wanted to smoke some churchill/lancero. Budget anything under $15 per stick..

My list so far :

My Father Lancero
Don Pepin Blue label Lancero
Illusione HL Lancero
Oliva V Churchill

Any suggestion? I'm more a corona/robusto man. WHODAT!

I like the Blue label more in the Generosos (toro)

The Blue Generoso is one of my go tos.

Cheaper, the Sol Cubano Cuban Cabinet Toro.

But, I just finished an Oliva MB3 Churchill - hard to beat!

OK, I'm fickle!

Partagas Spanish Rosado Mitico (7"x49). Good length and the spanish rosado smokes longer than its size. Medium body with good spicy flavor.
But if you want fuller body, you can't go wrong with the Oliva V.

Nestor Miranda Danno. With minimal effort, that stick should last you the whole game, including half-time. Seriously.

I might also consider the Tatuaje Reserva SW, mainly because it's a personal favorite of mine.

I like your list and anything in those sizes should be fine.

Arturo Fuente Masterpiece (9.0" x 52) will set you back about 13 bucks and if your friends don't smoke a whole lot it might be a good choice and you said you wanted a long smoke.

I like lancero's myself but I suppose it depends on how long you intend to actually smoke for. In that size I enjoy the Holy Lance by Illusione. The Tat Especiales (7.5" x 38) is also a fav but don't think that one would go the distance.

I am a big fan of the Graycliff Turbo. It's a fat, heavy, tightly packed 60 gauge torpedo. They last quite awhile lol.

Very good cigar and one that you must sip rather than gulp. Great flavor.

The RC184 and RC233 are also good, but I like the especial better.

One more I would add are the Illusione 42/g

Out of the above, Cuaba Salomones would be the least expensive, but come in a 10 box.
