Full bodied cigar suggestions?

[Weelok]

For me it's a Padron Maduro thousand series, Joya de Nicaragua, Don Pepin Blue, 601 Green, Cain F, Man O War Ruination, Alec Bradley Tempus or Prensado, Ashton San Cristobal, Tatuaje Miami brown label, Casa Magna, Illusione MK, Viaje 50/50 Black, or a Camacho Maduro

Thanks, I guess I had found this site before, but everyone was sold out at the time. I'm going to have to buy a box.

Thanks!

Just another small example of how this whole cigar thing is about the journey more than the destination.

Highly recommend the Antano dark corojos, the are the bomb.

Im going to say for NCs 601 blue and some of the tats are worth a look.

And by the off chance you find a real one a bolivar royal corona.

For full bodied? Different strokes for different folks, I love the Royal Coronas, but find them to be about the mildest of the handmade Bolivars.

I asked about full bodied CCs a long time ago and thought the RyJ Cazzadore and some Vegas Robianas were there. Since then, though, I don't find the strength of any cigar has much effect on me unless I haven't eaten much or if I'm already tired. Now I really only care about the flavor and construction. You can always smoke it faster and inhale a little if you really want to get a nicotine buzz.
I'll have to try an Esencia. I think it's about the only one on any of these lists I haven't.

Can't remember when Empire had the Esencia event, but I believe that was in the fall of 2010, so roughly a year and a half on it I believe. Could be wrong in my memory and have picked it up much more recently.

Partagas Black Label Classico = brisk

Guess that means I have to pick up a box and start experimenting. Now if I could just find some cash my beloved hasn't earmarked for something else!

Ive always found them on the mild side of full but maybe thats just me though if you want a real harsh full body smoke get yourself a aged 04 siglo 4 so unrefined IMO its enough to put you off smoking.
