In my humble opinion, the St.Luis Rey Churchill(availble at a CI competitor for $49.95) hands down rates the best. Not sure if they are still in production, but a great smoke at any price.

La Rosa Especial Mi Favoritas. Competition retails them for $43.95 a box and you can often get them here for less than that. The maduros are an overlooked treasure.

That's a tough one, but I scored a box of Sancho Panzas for $42 last year. Great medium-bodied smoke that gets even better with a little humi time. I'll definitely keep my ear open on this thread.

Sancho Panza Caballeros for $37.95
Bacarrat Petit Coronas about the same, Casino Vintage Corona $29.00.
Dunhill Corona Grandes (Canary Islands) $49.00
On occasion I even find a box of Padon Delicias for $49.95.

Flor de A Allones #5. 20-minute potent smoke. Get better after a month or so humi time.

I'm probably going to catch some flack for this, but I still think the Sinatra Limited Edition 'My Way' is one inexpensive, well made, good tasting cigar. And I say this knowing that I really don't care much for cigars made by Felipe Gregorio ...

CI has them for $54.95 for a box of 20 ... and you will love it's even burn and pure white ash ...

How about La Finca? Most of the sizes are under $50! I like the Joyas, a great cigar for the price!

do you mean Joya De Nicaragua? These are absolutely fantastic, too bad CI doesn't carry them anymore, (don't confuse with the Hoya etc.) I have been enjoying a box of the Consuls over a year and each time I have one I get determined to make sure I will always have these in my regular rotation. I don't know if they are under $50 but close, they are similar to the Cupido's in flavor but the flavor is much more explosive in the Joya's but very smooth, otherwise hard to go wrong with Mayorga at that price range.

Suprised the heck out of me, but I've found myself liking the Fittipaldi maduros. Not worth the retail price, but you can make a great buy on 'em here. Seems like I like anything with a Brazilian maduro wrapper.

Yes, I will have to agree with the Sinatra's "My Way" Torp. It's decently made, and yes that white firm ash. I would also like to throw in the "Hombre de Oro's". At about $23 per box of 25 robustos, it's kinda hard to beat.

I never see the Hombre de Oro's on Cbid. I get them elsewhere. They are real good for the price. I'm down to about 2 of them. Time to reload.

You guys have some good choices, but my vote definitely goes to Flor d'Oliva grand camaroon torpedo. I can score these babies for $46 abox. Can't beat 'em for the money. The Mayorga's are my second choice.

The St. Luis Reys are the cigars I purchased to give out when my sons came into this world. I have saved one from each box and will give them up when the boys are of age. They have not always been such a good deal, at one time they sold for $120.00 a box. The competitor you mentioned is the only place I have seen them regularly. They are a great deal at $49 - $59 a box.

LONE WOLF? Whoops only joking, save the nasty replys.....actually Mayorga Maduro has three great cigars for under $50 per box! The Robusto (CI price) is only 39 per box! Great cigars and damn well made!

If my opinion counts, and IT DOES!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would have to say that the Diesel crude is a damn good smoke for the price. I also like the Fittipaldi Maduro and have gotten them for 1.00 a stick on C-bid. But for pure Cheap and tasty I go Fidalgo Negro everytime. I love the dirty little stain on my lips as well.

Love from above------Leon
