Any cigar aficionados?

+1 on the Onyx. I also am a fan of Henry Clays. If I'm on the mood to splurge ($10+), I'll try to find a Fuente Opus X in a rubusto.

I usually get mine here:

Cigars are my "zen zone" Ive recently been smoking the vigilantes, a mild cigar from the Rocky family. I think Drew Estate is my favorite, but I havent had a Nub yet (this saturday they will be smoked)

CAO puts out a mean cigar that I cannot say no to, I try and keep some in my humidor as much as possible, the zino is fantastic as well (Thanks Alex for recommending to me).

Any suggestions? I like fairly mild flavor with slight earthy taste.. preferably less than $10 each.
1. Montecristo #2 - One of the highest rated cigars. They usually go for $8. My favorite. Goes with any scotch IMHO.

2. Arturo Fuente 858. A bit bolder but smooth. Goes great with Johnny Walker.

just smoked one of CAO's Mx2's. it was one of 5 that come in thier handy little tin, and was a rather small size. if i had to guess, id say it was about a 4x40.

it was constructed well, and burned evenly throughout, although i had to re-light twice. most likely due to me letting it sit too long.

the flavor was good. medium bodied, with a bit of sweet spice notes, and some nutty earthiness to it, although a bit unpronounced.

i would say that this blend in a larger shape would be a bit better smoke.


very enjoyable overall, and very easy to handle.
