We're all looking for a great cigar at a bargain price...Many gems come to mind in that category.

But when it comes time to slap down some cash on a premium, regular production cigar over $10/stick, what do you target?

Without hesitation, mine would be the T52 Toro....Just a great, consistent smoke. Top shelf leaf, superior craftsmanship, and a wonderful profile.

...What's yours?

Like you, a T52 would be my first choice. After that probably a Padron 64. I always know that I'm going to get a consistent, quality smoke with either of them.

If I'm gonna go for a true luxury smoke, I tend to go with either a Don Carlos or an Ashton ESG. If I want to go for a fuller bodied stick its a Liga 9 DC.

T-52, Padron 26 and Oliva V Melanio is now approaching that level for me.

Diamond Crown Maximus is great as well, right around that $10 mark.

Well, since I'm in Minnesota, damn near everything is over $10 lol

But, my list would be:
1. Illusione Epernay Le Matin, and maybe the L'Alpiniste
2. No. 9 / T52
3. Reindao GER (pretty sure it's $10 even)
4. Padron Annis

With all of the ordinance flying around these days, you guys think its wise to comment in this thread? Lol
Summer's coming, the bombing tends to slow down when people spend less time at the keyboard. Fairly confident we're safe in this thread. (Where's the knock on wood smilie when you need it?)

So far I've learned from this thread that I really need to try more cigars, haven't had any that have been mentioned yet. Do have a Padron 64 in the humi as well as a T-52, really need to get to them. My favorite 10+ so far is the El Titan de Bronze redemption maduro.
