🐴 I'm probably the umpteenth guy to go blind searching the forum for budget sticks so please forgive my obvious ignorance. I'm a pipe and coffee guy. My last stint with cigars was well into the last century and Arturo Fuentes come to mind as my favorite.

I'm now looking up a couple interesting sticks and searching Pirates Gold showed me some powerful smokers and a cutie in red and white wench attire.

I have already blown my budget for gourmet coffee and fancy pipe stuffings on some cheap Fonseca and Matacan over at CI without a clue on what I was getting. They are not AF for sure.

My question is can you direct me to some decent stuff for a noobie palette on a budget as I have never smoked some of these interesting descriptions for flavors. Obviously the cigar descriptions are slightly exaggerated because my wife described the Fonseca as burning swamp. Thanks!

You're such a nice guy!

But to help the new guy out, try a Tatuaje Fausto ....... They're pretty good and you can find them reasonable. 🇨🇮

Yep samplers are definitely the way to go. I'm still working my way through 'em. One piece of advice is don't blow your wad on Gurkhas. Apparently some are good, many are lackluster, most are overpriced.

Indian Tabac classics are a good budget stick.

They are in the $1 each range.
