So tell me Conan what are your favorite cigars that you have smoked that you bought from cbid in the past year? People can dog general cigars all they want but red dot is a nice cameroon and the macassar has a nice broadleaf wrapper both tasty and well-made and only a few bucks a piece from cbid auctions. Both good cigars. I think if you tried them you might like them.
As for off cbid, Montesino Maduro is an excellent cigar and a regular smoke for me now. AF Anejo is also great but hard to get and pricey. I tried La Aurora Preferidos Diamond then bought a box and now I love them too. So hard to rate.
Anyway I love you Conan but how about rather $hitting on my suggestions come up with a few of your own.
Mea culpa!

I haven’t bought anything from CBid since 2020. Unfortunately there’s almost nothing that I want or with starting prices at MSRP / MAP so no savings whatsoever. When I first started smoking premiums, I had the Red Dot Cohibas but thought it was just an okay cigar. Then again, my first premium was an AF Signature Natural so the bar was pretty high. Likewise with CBL. For me, Fuente, Tatuaje and Crowned Heads were the best brands for that wrapper and I settled on blends from them many moons ago so never had an itch to try the Macassar.
Cigars, like many other things in life are subjective and everyone’s palate is different so, as they say, “Smoke what you like, like what you smoke.”
