is there even a such thing as a good machine made cigar

best I've had was a box of aged Los Statos Deluxe, which are still available but getting harder to come by. I only wish I hadn't gone through them all.

Lately I've been buying Davidoff Demitasse cigarillos which are pretty darn tasty. I'm not sure if they are machine made or not but most cigar shops carry them and 10 packs are around $15.

Of course smoke what you like and like what you smoke, but if money is the sole concern, you can find decent hand-rolleds for around this price--just watch any of the auction sites, which often have 5-packs for about $10. Not directing this at Jeff personally, just responding to Eli's comment about smoking machine-mades if you are low on cash.

yeah, I guess I should have read the OP more carefully. If you're only looking into to machine mades for cash savings, there are plenty of budget handmades that can be found for around the same price as the MM cigars I mentioned.

I personally like to keep a handful of MMs around, not just because they're cheap, but sometimes you just want a quick smoke. Those LSDs were perfect for taking the dog around the block.
