The brown labels are pretty good(I forget which blend it is, might be the Reserva Reals). I didn't have a lot of faith in RyJs after my first one, a robusto of the original blend, but those brown labels turned them around for me.

Eh, I enjoyed the Reserva Real and Romeo Y Julieta Edicion Limitada. Of course the EL is about $18-$20 a stick. It's not THAT good but certainly quite tasty and worth probably $12-$13.

Yes Tom the Ghurka Empire V. I myself don't think All Ghurkas are bad in fact I had some average ones that were 30 bucks a stick that I was p'd it cost so much but some that tasted better than a Romeo y Julieta

yep, that's what I came here to post. It's been a while since I tried one, but I remember the Belicosos having a gorgeous wrapper and a cool, almost box pressed shape, similar to the anejo shark.
