Under rated cigars

Post by Zedman05 » Wed Mar 02, 2016 9:12 pm

I am interested to know what "y'all" think are cigars that fly under the radar. Cheap and cheerful, or expensive as hell it doesn't matter. Something that you think is worth mentioning that you wish you had boxes of, not just something you like.

I will add my 2-bits worth:

NC:
Oliva V Torp and Beli.
Cromag Original line.
Tat Havana Cazador.
Any Elogio.
Le Bijou Toro (I know they got the CA seal of approval, but I still think these are under rated).

CC:
Upmann Sir Winston (these are rated highly by many reviewers, but I think they aren't talked about by the regular guys as much as they should be).
Juan Lopez No.2
SLR Serie A
Upmann Connie 1
VR Famoso

I love the Upmann Connie A, and would put it on this list, but it is not under rated. They have been talked about everywhere since they came out and the populace has come to a very positive agreement.

Ones that don't get a lot of talk but work for me

Oliva Master Blends III

La Casita Criollo

Punch Rare Corojo

Hoya de Monterry Dark Knight

all NC for me but it seems like these are ones that are not talked about a lot, can be found at relatively good prices and smoke great.

Under rated cigars

Post by f.sinagra » Wed Mar 02, 2016 9:40 pm

The underrated's are:

PDR 1878 (all lines, especially the Oscuro(a).)

Ave Maria by AJ (let those babies sit for at least a year and they are wonderful with coffee.)

Cuba Aliados Mazo (excellent cigar w/ good flavor and superb construction.)

JdN Dark Peligroso and Man O' War Puro Authentico (superb flavor and punch to those little MFers.)

Brick House Cigars Habano wrapped (good flavor, great price.)

These are but some of my really good, but underrated, cigars on the market today.

Maybe it's like becoming one with the cigar. You lose yourself in it; everything fades away: your worries, your problems, your thoughts. They fade into the smoke, and the cigar and you are at peace. - Raul Julia

I guess this could also be called "cigars I like that no one talks about." So...

Torano Exodus 1959 (gold label) - not the Exodus 50 years
Casa Torano maduro
Tatuaje Ambos Mundos
Don Pepin Garcia Cuban Classic (black label)
Don Pepin Garcia Blue Original
Oliva Saison

Stay smokey, my friends.

Here is my list:

Famous Nicaraguan 5000 - these are cheap, can be had for about $2 ea. I have several bundles. They are my favorite of the famous nic bundles. I have tried most of the famous nic bundles and, in my opinion, you can go wrong with any of them. Hardly anyone rates bundled sticks.

Man O War - I like every size and wrapper variation. My favorites are the side projects.

Diesel - the unholy cocktails and unlimited maduro are very good

J Fuego - the originals, small rustic cigars. Great flavors

Montecristo white series - pricey. But, my favorite connie wrapped cigar. If I could afford it I would buy boxes of them

La Zona Factory Selects. Famous exclusive. I like the 52 ring. Under $2. Great first smoke of day (not strong)
