If you want UBER cheap, then how about the Indian Tabac Cameroon Legend? I won a whole box amounting to about $1.50/stick, lol. It uses Cammy filler as well, which seems kinda unique. If you haven't tried one, I can toss one your way. Won't be the in same league as the DC, of course, but at that price is mighty tasty.
...Then again, you're probably a Packer's fan...so who knows what crazy stuff you like.

Oh yeah, I have a few of them. They're actually pretty good smokes and as said SUPER CHEAP.
Huh, It's looking like the DC stands in a class of its own. I have tried most all of the cigars you guys have mentioned. I guess There is no real good DC standin. Guess that's why they go for what they do, they are one of the best.

Please tell me if I'm crazy (wait for the question though!)
Last week I had a Torano 1916. I loved it, but thought it reminded me of a Rocky Patel Vintage '92. I figured it was a fluke. Last night I had another Vintage '92--and it really did taste similar to the Torano to me!
The wrappers are totally different (Cameroon vs. Sumatra). The Vintage was more complex I thought, but the Torano was a little stronger in that similar flavor.
So am I crazy of is there a similar taste here?

Maybe just slightly!!:hysterica
I have had several of both. and I never got similarities between the two. But your palate will pick out different things.

Fuente describes it as Natural, but according to websites like JR's, the wrapper is actually Cameroon. I started looking into it after smoking one. I normally smoke maduro, and occasionally candela, 8-5-8's. So, when I smoked a natural, the taste was really noticeable, and I thought, "Hey, this tastes sort of like a Don Carlos."
Don't light one up expecting to think you're smoking a Don Carlos, or you'll probably be disappointed. But if you go in with an open mind, I think you'll like and and see the similarities.

I completely forgot all about these:
La Aurora 1495 Series Cameroon '94
Once they're gone - that's it. I think it's a fantastic Cameroon - & over 14 years old.
A box of ten can usually be had for $50 - which is 50% off msrp.
