Default Taboo Limited Reserve Which One Is Your Favorite?

I have to say I'm tied with the Connecticut and Maduro. I enjoy them both. I like the Connecticut robusto in the morning it's a great way to start my day. Mid day I like the Maduro figurado, it's pretty darned tasty.

As much as I like those two I did not enjoy the Havana. Not that it was bad, I just didn't like it as much as the other two blends.

How about you guys?

I like the Havana the best - the figurado

I'm interested to see the responses here too, I've yet to try them but based on the good reviews I might have to pull the trigger on some.

i've done the sampler, and what i have reordered is the havana. i like the figurado size, but the robusto actually has a little more flavor. it's my favorite taboo after the special forces.

For reference, my tastes run toward the medium to strong. I like the Havana, with the Maduro second.

As soon as I receive my order from Rob (which should be on Friday) I'll let you know. I placed an order on Tuesday for the LR Havana Robusto and the LR Maduro Robusto (a 5er of each) and am really looking forward to burning both

My thoughts exactly. The Havana just didn't do it for me. But I love the connie and maduro.

I prefer the Maduro Figurado myself. Great smoke.

I like them all, but think I prefer the Havana and the Maduro. I think the Havana in particular is distinctive. It would make a very nice Corona sized cigar. The Connecticut seems to be like a lot of other mild/med Connies; nice, but nothing particiuarly remarkable about it.

I got the LR sampler a couple of weeks ago, 3 maduros, 2 havanas and 1 connecticut, but I thought it would be 2 of each. We tried both the havana torp and maduro robusto last night and by a slight edge I would say I like the maduro.

You are correct, It should have been 2 of each. If you want another Conn, let me know by pm.
Sorry
