Got to get me some JLP.

I really like the TNT knockoffs. The JDN Antano knockoffs are great.

Define "value smoke".

I had a guy say that to me when I was praising a certain cigar. "Ya that's a pretty good "value smoke" like someone just took a dump in his mouth. Made me feel like I was smoking (and enjoying) cheap chit.

I would define, in line with my budget, a value smoke as a box/bundle of 20/25/26 for under $100, giving a single cigar price equal to or less than $5.

Not that you can't find good boxes/bundles for far less than $100, but I would suggest this as a good guideline.

Anything Sancho Panza is awesome. I'm a fan of the extra furete most, but the double maduro also rocks.
Gispert is also very good, if you like the lighter stuff.

The Double Maduros are tasty, but they seem to unravel as soon as I clip the cap.

I have had this as well, but the flavor of these beauties makes up for it usually. If the caps were perfect, they would totally awesome.

The cheapest stick I smoke regularly is the Punch Champion. To my palate, premium taste at 2-3 buckos a stick.
