BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
Best cigar for no more than $4.00

Boli PC - can't seem to find a listing for it... is this an NC or CC?
PLPC- again not sure what this is?
Boli PC - Cuban BoliVar Petit Corona
PLPC - Cuban Por Laranaga Petit Corona
Ok I recvd one of each from HB, smoked the but have not smoked either one... want to wait for the weather to get better so I can sit outside and enjoy it.
I did however smoke the Por Larranga Panatela that he sent and even though it was an mm, it still was very tasty!

I was talked into one occidental camaroon... nasty. I probably will never try another occidental of any kind. I wasn't at all impressed.
"Best" cigars lists are just fodder for entertainment, imo. In any case, here are some noteworthy smokes that I enjoy for $4 and under ...
CAO Italia
Fuente 858, Chateau Fuente, Cuban Corona, Spanish Lonsdale
Hemingway Short Story
La Aurora
Padron 2000, Delicias
Perdomo Lot 23

I understood. However I'm not not sure I understand why you feel opinions here carry any more weight than those posted at Top25 or written in Smoke magazine. (I deliberately left out CA as I feel reviews there are at least somewhat biased.)
Smoke can depend on advert's like CA and top25 well... there is no way to narrow searches down, only if you know what you are looking for can you find what you are searching for... with this input I can go to top35 and get reviews and make up my mind from that... input is always helpful and I take suggestions first from those I know then, mags, catalogs and such... since i have gotten some good advice on here so far, felt I could trust the input... as I have gotten some good ideas for smokes already by this and the cigar reviews posted by others on this board.
I think I can state that since 8-5-8- and Padrons have been mentioned multiple times then these are probably cgars worth trying...
ATCdub bought some of the heming's when he was up here, now you mention them... what do you like about them?

I also love Padron and know your a maduro guy. The 2000 is too strong for my liking. Clay gifted me a 3000 with age and was damn good. I recently been liking me some Padron Londres maduro for under $2.50 each. Think the size is 5 1/2 x 42, like a petite corona size.
I figured I'd get in on this discussion. Being a grad student and a newbie, I have more than enough reasons to know about cheaper- end premiums (no, Phillies blunts aren't premiums... at least to me!)
Anyhow, I prefer larger rg maddies, so this likely reflects that:
CAO Brazilia
Padron 5k (any padron, really)
5 Vegas Series A (add some age and they're one of the best I've enjoyed!)
Sancho Panza Double Maduro
Cu-Avana Maduros (some hate 'em, some like 'em - nice twang/ citrus)
Gurkha Ancient Warrior (depends where you get them - have heard they're more expensive elsewhere)
Just a few that came to mind...
