I have not had a lot of time to explore and discover lately, been missing the forum and the cigar scene in general last few years, I'm stuck in a rut.

Give me some suggestions for new stuff to explore, I'm a big fan of tatuaje (fausto, broadleaf, cohettes), roma craft, fuente hemingway, my father anything, San Andreas wrappers, have enjoyed the Caldwell, rm 101 and viaje lines in the past.

D,

In the 6-1/2-ish years since you were last active on the board, I'd say these brands / smokes made an impression on me:

AF 8-5-8 Rosado - a nice addition to the line
Casa Fernandez - I'mma particularly fond of the Guardian of the Farm series
Isabela - small boutique brand that flies under almost everyone's radar
JRE Aladino Corojo - love everything I've tried
Rojas - I'mma more of a Barbacoa Street Tacos and Bluebonnets fan but Noel has followers throughout his entire portfolio
Southern Draw Manzanita - I really enjoy the Toro size
Warped - they have a few blends that I smoke on a regular basis - Chinchalle, Cloud Hopper, SGR 1988, but Kyle Gellis, can, at times, come out with some winner LEs (...and some not so winners too...)

Shoot me a PM of your new addy. I'll sign the NDA and send you a few cigars in a SFR.

Stinger sent me an Isabela cigar. It didn't have a name on it, but it was a barber pole perfecto with some age on it and it was fantastic. Where can u buy them online?

Basically from them directly. I don't think they have much in the way of a distribution network.

Google Isabela Cigar Company
