Alternative to DPG Blue Label?

[mpieniaz]

I finally smoked a DPG Blue Label invictos the other night and it blew me away! Now I know what all the hype is about. Anyways I wanted to gather some input from my fellow BOTL's on what other cigars you would recommend for me to try that have a similar strength and/or flavor profile.

DPG Blue Label Generosos
DPG Blue Label Delicias
DPG Blue Label Imperiales
DPG Blue Label Magnates
DPG Blue Label Lancero (very hard to find)


Those would be my recommendations!

DP BLack Label Cuban Classic - smoother
Tatuaje Brown Label -
Tatuaje Red Label
Habana Leone - stronger

Tatuaje Brown & Red
Illusione 88
601 Red or Blue

I hear that DPG's Habana Leon's have a similar profile as well.

I hear that DPG's Habana Leon's have a similar profile as well.

Much stronger though. But VERY tasty!

If you like the DPG Blue, then get more of them or try different sizes like the one's Wade wrote in post #2. What others have said above, most are Pepin products.

I like the Padilla Miami 8/11 a LOT as well, which is a Pepin rolled product. Little less strong, little more spicy.

For me the Cabaiguan line is great also (another Pepin product). Even less strong than the Padilla Miami but with more flavors and a certain twang quality that is hard to find.

Generally the Blue are more affordable then the two I wrote above.

Try Holt's Connoisseurs, for a lot less money (also made by DPG).
