Thanks Reno and Redpop for the input. I will avoid the infused. I used to smoke the Man O War before and will probably pick up an Armada to try. Got to find some quality consistent sticks soon.

Not a big smoker but needed a humidor. CI has one on backorder with 10 cigars. Not waiting so I went with this for 19.99
Sampler Includes:
1 – CAO Black
1 – Gurkha Warpig
1 – Torano Dominico
1 – HC Series Maduro
1 – Mark Twain
1 – 5 Vegas Series ‘A’
1 – Amati
1 – Ramon Bueso Genesis
1 – Bahia Blu L600
1 – La Perla Habana Grand Pearl
1 - Golden Mahogany Humidor (35-50 Capacity)

I also picked up 3 5 packs for a total of 34.99

Rocky Patel The Edge Toro Corojo (6.0"x52)

CAO Extreme Toro (6.0"x52) Pack of 5

5 Vegas Gold Churchill (7.0"x50)

Nothing super spectacular but for me its a good start

Flor de las Antillas - My Father is a great smoke
601 Blue Maduro is my go to cigar if I can't think of anything else to smoke
Padron 3000 Maduro was a pretty good cigar that I would like to buy a few more of
Undercrown by Drew Estate is amazing but higher in price
Nica Rustica by Drew Estate is also good
Puros Indios is a cheap budget cigar that I enjoy
I have had a Liga Privada No 9 once and it was top tier, but I surely can't afford that one as an every day.
The list goes on and on...

La Gloria Cubana Serie R

ETA: Padron 64 anniversary series is by far my favorite. But I don't like paying for it unless it's a special occasion.

Had a Trinidad y Cia earlier. Cheap cigar but not bad.

I'm definitely gonna order some online. Been looking at getting a humidor and those prices look great. How is the quality of that humidor with the sample pack?

Kuba Acid

By far the worst cigar I've ever put in my mouth IMO. As a general rule I stay away from infused cigars, the Gurkha Grand Reserve being the exception.

The only Drew Estate cigar I've ever cared for actually was the Undercrown (Shade and the Flying Pig).

I'm not a big fan of Rocky Patel. Too inconsistent in my many trials with them.

I have a few major go-to's that everyone else mentioned but My Father La Bijou 1922, La Gloria Serie R, and Oliva Serie G have always been high on the list.

As of late I'm liking the CAO Flathead V660.

A brand that I'm REALLY liking lately is RoMa Craft, especially the Aquitaine and the CroMagnon. If you've never had one I encourage you to give them a shot. That "holy shite these are good" feeling is what I love the most about cigars. Those ones that catch you when you're not expecting it and take you for a ride.

Pistoff Kristoff on deck for today.

Tried the Ghurka Ghost Saturday Night but didn't find it to be that great.

I'll know more about it in the next few days/weeks. For now it's working out ok. I'm sure it's nothing fancy and whatnot but for now it works for me. its small enough that if it doesn't work out, I'll just have to smoke what's inside faster.
