I smoked one or more AB Prensado toros. Didn't really wow me and certainly not worth more than $ 2 IMHO.

I’m in the same boat……..somewhat.
I pretty much stick to Tats, Crowned Heads, My Father, and stuff from Saka, Illusione, LFD, and occasional Fuentes and Padrons.
I still buy occasional yard gars to pass out to non smokers who want a cigar, and stick to AJ cigars, and sometimes some Room 101 stuff for yard gar duty.

So weird though, the Prensado looks great, smokes great, tastes like nothing……….until it tastes like chit.
Just sad….

I’m thinking the ornate bands on ABs is what attracts most nOObs. Kinda like Gurks and some RPs

I’ve definitely slowed down on cigar purchases. With that being said, in the last year and a half-ish, Warped and Southern Draw have been the most bought brands but…mighta spend more $$$ on htf / higher end Fuentes and Padrons. No longer chase after LE Tats after going overboard on the T110 Redux.

Most ab cigars have went seriously downhill especially after the big fires that took out their curing barns and greenhouses. The tempus and the tempus maduro are the only ones I still buy and smoke and at $2-3 each I think they're great.
