[Jim Warren]

4. Close, but no cigar

Pipe smoker here.

Yup, ol' man type antiquated pipe guy.

Hand-mades with aged Virginia Flakes or Latakia English blends.

7. i like pipes too, and the tobacco is cheaper...

..but embarrassingly, i cant keep mine lit. i choose to blame my pipe. :smoke: :shrug:

5. Puros Indios and Indian Tabac (Fire)

Natural wrapper good, Maduro better! (signed up w/ Cigarbid.com for cheap email deals)

Also enjoy a good bowl of GL Pease Rennaisance or Frog Morton in a corncob pipe (chew the stem, smoke 'em hot, generally abuse these cheap pipes yet they still provide a good smoke-- and they're made in the USA).

American Spirit ciggies are my main smoke, though. Cheap online-- prefer their menthols, though their organic cigs are pretty good too.

6. Cojimar, the vanilla not a bad flavor and my wife does not gripe

about the smell

[BOHICA06]

8. Flora de Oliva

any size ..... hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

[Ten Bears]

9. Partagas

Romeo Y Julieta if I can't get Partagas. Of course I mean el cubanos.

[ornotna]

10. la gloria cubana is very nice

but my favorite is Padron Anniversary series.

[trumad]

11. Padron's are yummy

...

[Calico Jack Rackham]

12. Oh God there are so many.

Trinidad Toros, Partagas Fabuloso, Sancho Panza Primoroso, Partagas Spanish Rosado Mitico and of course there is nothing better than a Cohiba Esplendidos from Cuba.

[jmowreader]

15. Assuming you get a real one, that is

The Cohiba Esplendidos is the most-counterfeited cigar in the history of cigar rolling.

I smoked a Fuente Fuente Opus X, which was a bitch to find, cost me about the price of a tank of gas and was worth it.

[soothsayer]

13. Avo, especially the reserve series with the orange band, but lots of

others.

Davidoff, PG, Padron (the square pressed anniversarios! yum), la gloria cubana (which can be so liquorice-y when fresh).

Of Cubans, Bolivar, and Hoyo de Monterrey, and all of them...!

[jmowreader]

14. Premiums: Punch

I like Partagas and H. Uppmans too.

But for a good inexpensive smoke, nothing beats JR Alternatives, which comes 20 to a bundle for about $15-$25 and taste good.
