Any box and why?

gettysburgfreak · 09-03-2009, 07:40 PM

I really want to pick myself up a box of cigars once I get the official "we would like to offer you a job" call from the Dept of Homeland Security. Here is what I like:
A medium to full bodied cigar
Lots of thick smoke
Lots of chocolate, wood, rich flavors
Looking at the $200 price point
Any country of origin

When you suggest something if you could tell me why that would be great. Thanks for the input everyone!

Montecristo #2s, and charge them to the Head of the Center For Domestic Preparedness.

With that price point I would go with a box of DPG JJ Maduro's... Great smoke with all the flavors your looking for. Pretty close to all the other things your looking for as well.

I had one and really really liked it, good suggestion

For that price get two boxes of H.Upmann Coronas Major. One to smoke and one to age. You will love them.

Best of luck,

Try these links for the JJ Maduros. Good dealers, good prices.

Here's an even better deal if you can live without the box, or ask them if they'll give it to you for buying 25 sticks. 25 6 x 54 for $178 and change.

Congrats.

I would buy a box of Padron 6000 maduros.

Why?

They're really well made, nice Padron maduro wrapper, and you have money left over for some singles ... how can you lose?

Thanks for the input, I actually have a box that I am letting sit for awhile

I just finished smoking a AF Anejo #48 and you hit the nail on the head. Med to Full, thick smoke, choc rich flavors. Only problem is you would have to wait a couple months, and hopefully you have a job before then.

You running every day like I told you too?

For that hmm a little spicier maybe but DPG Vegas Cuba or a box of 100 Anos with less spice.

jjirons69 · 09-03-2009, 09:37 PM

Oliva O or G maduros
Padron maduros
Excalibur Dark Knights
RP Decades or Olde World Reserves
Partagas Black
DPG JJ maduros
AF Hemingway maduros

All of these listed will give lots of thick, chocolatey, leather, wood smoke. If you deal right, you'll have money left over for a bottle of your favorite poison to go with them.

He would have to spend a few years on your side of the fence to make BorTac.

And I second the Hemingway Maduros. Mmmm. New fav smoke of mine since I found the masterpieces on sale.
