What is your present favorite NC?
Guys, I am considering buys a few sticks with Christmas gift $$. But, I don't get out much. I do not get to sample a whole bunch of the new stuff as there isn't a cigar brick and mortar that is less than an hour+ away...OK, there is, but it is also part of a head shop. So, not the place to truly buy cigars.
My problem is that when I do get to the towns where there are brick & mortar shops, I am in town to visit someone in the hospital & I don't want to smell like a cigar shop (cigar smoke) going in to visit them. The other problem is that I am at that time I do not have a good idea of what I should try. Let me explain my cigar tastes, and then, if you would, tell me some of your present favorite newer NCs (something new is less than 3 years out) that you think I might enjoy. In my humidors, & what I really enjoy are. Caldwell - Long Live the King & The King is Dead La Palina - Illumination (lanceros) & El Diario Southern Draw - Kudzu & Firethorn Oliva V & Oliva V Melanio Liga Undercrown - Sun Grown & Connies Tabernacle & El Gueguense AF DCs & Hemingways So, what is something that I might enjoy? Peace of the Lord be with you.

Lots of good ones listed here. My current favorite is the Street Taco by Rojas.

For number 6, maybe it’s just that I hadn’t smoked the Verocu before 2022. I had smoked the Red and wasn’t impressed. Then I discovered the Verocu and wow, now that is a good cigar!! It’s with mentioning there are two other cigars that I love but they are shop exclusives. 1. Atlantic Cigars BLTC Dreadnaught. These just came out, very good. 2. Fox Cigars Araposa Negra. I have had wonky burns on these but they are really good.

Re: What is your present favorite NC?
Not a "mooch" if you're my friend and want to try something I have plenty of. Time to search my PMs for addresses.

Re: What is your present favorite NC?
Davidoff Winston Churchill series of cigars are pretty impressive and refined.

Re: What is your present favorite NC?
As mentioned above, the Rojas Unfinished Business is a great smoke. West Tampa Tobacco Co. Black or White are fairly new. I prefer the Black over the White.
