Default Expanding my horizons

I think my smoking might have been in a bit of a rut lately. I am a creature of habit and I have been finding myself buying the same smokes. I lately have been smoking bigger ringed cigars and alot of full-bodied stuff. So what would anyone suggest, I am up for just about anything and income tax season is here so I will have a bit of money to play with. I am not afraid to go outside the box at all. So does anyone have any suggestions??

Tatuaje, La Riqueza, Cabiguan are all GREAT NCs.

for CCs you cant go wrong with Bolivar if you like full bodied. The Mag 50s will also kick you in the face.

Note to self ... pack some 50s. Have you had any Party du Party #1s? I can bring some of those as well. How about du Prince and friends? SP Molinars?

I'd say more of a medium smoke. They are quite a long smoke though, so they pack a punch if you smoke them too fast.

As Ratters would say, "Step up to flavor country and try a Camacho"
Triple Maduro
Limited Diploma
Corojo
SLR Maduro

All full bodied/full flavored smokes. Pepin's are more peppery if that is the path you seek.

I tend to find Molinos on a medium side, but that's my palate.

Try Illusione, either a 68 or 88. Also, 601 Red (Habano).

Killjoy, here's my suggestions that may fit into your zone:

La Flor Dominicana L400
Joya de Nicarauga Robusto Grande
Punch Gran Puro Rancho
Fonseca Cubano Viso Fuerte
Taboo SFO Robusto

This would be a nice selection for you

La Flor Dominicana Chisel
La Flor Chisel
Triple Maduro
CAO LX2
Rockey Patel Edge

Keep in mind that I'm referring to the opposite side of the spectrum when compared to a RyJ Reserva Real some of these are a** kickers so take your time smoking letting the cigar rest between pulls.

Try a Camacho Coyolar. They taste different that just about any other cigar. In a good way.
