Saint Luis Rey 'A' or Regios, Montecristo #2, #4, #5, Partagas Serie D no. 4, Partagas Lusitanias, Ramon Allones Specially Selected, Ramon Allones Gigantes, Trinidad Fundadores, Sancho Panza Sanchos, Bolivar Bonitas, Diplomaticos No. 2 ...

... and, if any of these can be found ... Cohiba Piramides Limited Edition Maduros, Hoyo de Monterrey Particulares Limited Edition Maduro, Montecristo Double Corona Limited Edition Maduros, Partagas Serie D No. 3 Limited Edition Maduro, Romeo y Julieta Robusto Limited Edition Maduros ...

... and be careful of the counterfeits. Unless you know you are getting them from an extremely reliable source, keep in mind that 95% (or more) of the ISOM's out there are fakes.

If you can come by any Monte #2's let me know. I'm dying to try one (seeing as it seems to be the favorite cigar of most cigar producers).

i would like one of each of your list, 2 if you can spare them.

i know you have mentioned the 90%+ figure on several occasions and i checked out your site in england. no doubt you are getting 100% authentic cigars. do me a favor and check out this site re prices. i would be anxious to get your opinion.

You can get a lot of cuban bang for your buck in the Petit corona sizes.Two of my favs are the Hoyo de Monterey De Depute and the San Cristobal el Pricipe.Not to mention the Partagas PC,Bolivar PC,
Sancho Panza non plus.The Ramone Allones small club coronas kick butt for a tre petit corona.

RICKAMAVEN --- that is one of the best compilations of Cuban cigar prices I have ever seen ... even though it probably needs some updating, since it is two years old.

Take note that the site I gave you, being in England, the prices and taxes there are fairly high. But, you are guarenteed in getting the real deal. They are supplied by Hunters & Frankau (Importers with 200 years experience) ...

Some say the current best cigar in the world is the Trinidad from Cuba. I haven't tried one yet.

I'm confused. Are you all chipping in on this conspiracy to undermine the integrity of our government?

I have had 10-15 Trinidads, imported from Madrid, very smooth and tasty, the only bad aspect was the draw was tough sledding, needed the poker.

Santa brought me a box of Montecristo Joyitas for being such a good boy this year--I asked for #2's so I guess I wasn't that good. I highly recommend them to anyone that wants a short (read relatively inexpensive) Habanos. They're small (4.5 x 26 I think), still it's a solid 30-40 minute smoke if you go easy. And they're 100 percent Monte. Delicious!!

In addition to those mentioned in Slim's great list, you might also look out for the HdM Epicure No. 2, R&J Exhibicion #4, Boliver Belicoso Fino, and Bolivar Royal Corona.
