Although I wouldn't consider them strong, the Padron x000 lines along with the Delicias and Londres are actually really affordable and quite good.

You should give them a shot!

Stick to the x000 series and you can't find a better value smoke in my mind. They can be had for about 4 bucks a stick by the box. Watch cbid for 5 packs at a decent price as well.

Off the top of my head in no particular order (not going to list the ones that have already been mentioned previously in the thread)
All are full bodied, not all are "full strength", some are more medium in strength (nicotine levels).


El Cobre
Camacho Triple Maduro
Camacho SLR Maduro
Camacho Coyolar (very strong and very full bodied)
Graycliff Double Espresso
San Cristobal by Ashton
JL Salazar
Liga Privada No. 9
Liga Privada T-52
Partagas Black
Exile Maduros
CAO America
CAO Brazilia
Fuente Anejo
Torano Virtuoso
Torano Exodus 1959 Maduro
5 Vegas Serie 'A' Anomaly
La Gloria Cubana Reserva Figurados, maduro, Flechas and Felecias vitolas
Macanudo Gold

The only thing I would add to the list of cigars mentioned above are the J.Fuego Delirium, I smoked two, then I ask for and recieved a box of them for Christmas. Love them

[Mikey202]

My favorite - DPG Cuban Classic - Black Label
5 Vegas A series
Taboo Special Forces - these are strong

You guys are hitting all my favorite full bodied smokes right on the head! My favorite full bodied cigars are the RP Edge, Hoyo De Mont. Dark Sumatra, Perdomo Oscuro, Cain Straight Ligero, and La Gloria Cubana Serie R(this one almost knocked me on my ass with it's n factor ).

Cains and LFD Double Ligero anything. They are all good smokes, and nice and strong at that. I had a LFD Salomon courtesy of a local BTL and that thing left my head a bit light.

DPG CC
LFD Double Ligero

Very true -- not all Padron's are expensive but they are generally a very good cigar. And, while they are medium-to-full-bodied they do not overpower with nicotine.

[thebiglebowski]

they've already been mentioned, but i'll throw my two cents in and also recommend the chisel, DPG CC and JdN Antanos.

I do not find the DPG CC to be that full but I love em.

Definitely the Oliva V, LFD DL Chisel, JdN Antano and I would add the 601 Green.

Don't mean to hijack but is there a large difference in flavor b/w the LFD Ligero and the Double Ligero? Or would there more of a difference in the nicotine factor?

Not a hijack - it's a valid question related to the subject.

Yes and Yes.

The flavors of the two cigars are different. LFD-DL is predominately spicy, the LFD-L is more of a mix of spice and a rich espresso. The DL is a bit stronger (nicotine). The L is more complex and balanced.

It's worth your time to try both and make up your mind which you prefer. They are different enough to make the comparison worthwhile.

I find the El Rey Del Mundo Robusto Larga to be quite a full body smoke with hints of cedar, peper, nuts, chocolate and coffee. I personally love them. On top of that, you can pick up a 20 box for 70$......I can also recommend Hoyo de Monterrey and Gran Habano #3 (I though they would suck, but pure CREAM ) GL to you Sir!

While I haven't smoked a wide number of cigars, I do know that I like fuller bodied sticks and the DPG CC 1979 and the Oliva Vs are ones I could smoke every day and be happy. I need to try more DPG BLue Labels :|

Depends what you mean by full bodied. If you want REALLY full sticks, I'd suggest:

Man o War Ruination
Oliva Series V
Mi Barrio
601 Green
Tatuaje Unicos
Tatuaje Noella
Tatuaje Verocu
Tatuaje T110
LFD Air Bender
LFD Double Ligero
Cain F

[Adriftpanda]

It would definitely be something the lines of La Flor Dominicans. Very full bodied and flavor.

[systm]

I think I need to get me a LFD to try, you gents seem to love em

[maninblack]

Thanks again for all the suggestions! Looks like my bank account's gonna get alot smaller soon.
