@sunover fair…. I don’t mind spending on a cigar I love. Like love. Padron 64-26. Love em. That’s cool once in a while. But if I’m paying over 10$ I’ve been disappointed more often than not. Just curious who decides what that cigar is worth.

Watching YouTube the other day saw an ad for “crooked crown “ cigars. Love to try one but immediately they’re 10$ a pop. Rolled by oliva with a Cameroon wrap. So is it just the g with a fun band? I really like the g. But I’m not giving 10.


How do you know

the latest disappointing cigar that I smoked that was proclaimed a super premium was a Highclere Castle...think it was $12...not even close to a super premium...I remembered thinking that a Buenaventura Crema C100 that DED sent as a low-end smoke in a blind taste test review was better

there have been plenty of other $10-$15 cigars billed as super premiums (cough Davidoff cough) that I've tried and was disappointed that I spent so much on them...


like Jake said, Padron 26/64 deserve that status...Fuente Anejo and Don Carlos...Tatuaje Cojonu, Le Verite... Ashton VSG...LGD Small Batch...Eiroa First 20 years Colorado...a few others...



what are some cigars in the $10 plus range have you thought were worthy?

Illusione of
Epernay
And warped eagles descent were two recent let downs.

One I buy over 10 I really like that cojuno 2012

Sumatra specifically ^^

Never spent more that $ 7 on a cigar (maybe $8 once) - almost always a disappointment.

Bought a Sombremesa Brûlée for 12. Worth every penny 🙂

I wish they were offered in a wider range of vitolas and smaller RG. Corona, CG and Lonsdale would be the vitolas I would love to see added to the line. But, then again, mebbe those sizes don’t translate well so that’s why they’re not available.

I was guessing the same^. I do like that smoke though. Seems some smokes only work in some sizes.
The robusto doesn’t put me off at all.

Jake smoked a robusto ? Are you drunk again?

Related side note: my phone now autocorrects robusto to romusto. So, you can add that to your life achievements

We now Tony , When is the next Gurkha fest. The price of them smokes are really high I smoked a many warpig , widowmaker , and other stuff from them.

Never again don't send them to me I will not even take the time or waste fluid to light them.

Smoke what you like and what you can afford and enjoy even if a smartazz like me says otherwise.

I have thrown 10 dollar cigars away many times but then again I wipe my azz with paper everyday also.

Yeah I smoke romustos

I’ll put up with a cheap cigar misbehaving. When a pricey one acts up it infuriates me

Yeah , That's always sucks to pick up a high dollar smoke and it have no draw whatsoever. Pisses me to no end but whats worse is to pick another and it do the same. Makes me just want to sell all them sumabitches. Then I just check my email and see a deal. Then another box coming.

that's a google giggle...
