Name a cigar that isn't well known, but is, in your opinion, of high quality

[Superduff]

My friend gave me a Lone Wolf cigar the other day and it was a pretty decent smoke. Heck, even if it wasn't a decent smoke, Walker Texas Ranger is one of the owners, so you gotta love 'em! I don't know how well known they are, but I had never heard of them.

I am also a fan of the St. Luis Reys.

Hmmm...

I would submit the following:

Taboo Cigars - If you haven't tried them you should!

Avalon Cigars - another low key albeit new cigar, cured in green pecan, adds a distinct flavor to the mix!

Arganese - Another new one but quality smoke!

Frank Vincent Cigars - I found these recently and would have to say for a mildish cigar they are quite complex in flavor!

Ted's made by Hand - Not very well known, pricey a bit on the mellow side.

Habano Leon is a decent smoke another one I like is Colba made in Little Havana Miami. Both are Med-Full with some complexity. Get em both through Cigar King.

A couple of years ago when I was driving the big orange pumpkin (A.K.A Schnieder), I had the opportunity to stop at the JR outlets in NC. A very nice looking lady recommended the JR Cuban Alternative Monte Cristo #2, this is now a staple in my humidor. A Nicaraugan blend with a very bold taste. Great value, $28 for bundle of 20, can't go wrong. I probably jinxed myself now, these cigars occasionaly sell out. Enjoy brothers.

Purchase and smoke a Brazilian hand-rolled Alonso Menendez double corona (has a simple white band with gold lettering) and you will never again consider picketing in order to demand trading status with Cuba be re-established.

The Mayorga Hi Octane. I can usually get a box or 27 for $45 or so. They sell on CI/cbid and a few other sites, it's a coffee company that decided to put their name on a cigar. I've been buying every once and while for 5 years now.

 

[Pendaboot]

Peterson and Condega, both closeouts, but still available if you search.

If you can find them, Medal of Honor by JR. There were 6 or 8 different ones: 3 or 4 sizes and natural or maduro. He named each one after buddies of his in the industry who had passed on.

With a backstory like that, you know Lew wasn't going to let them suck.

Had a Vigilante the other day. Nice surprise. Especially the price point. I think these are definitely worth a shot.

Ditto on the SLR's.

Ditto the Ditto.
Picked up a 3-pack of SLR Serie G Nat Beli's a couple of weeks just because they looked great. Only had one so far, so the jury is still out, but man, I was impressed. Great smoke all around; first class construct, lots of smoke and full of flavor - not spicy, but 'rich'.
I don't see too many of these available online, but if the next two are anything like the first, I'll be picking up plenty more.

The Savenelli Special Reserves are very tasty too.. Nice Nic blend.... and not that crazy of a price.

 

[bballbaby]

Omar ortez originals. I smoke the belicoso but they say the toro is even better. Straight forward leathery flavors, smooth, goo dconstruction.

Picked up 10 fro $25 today

Sancho Panza Belicosos (CC, 5 1/2 X 52 )! Nice size, nice smoke....

Has anyone had experience with Moore & Bode cigars of Miami? I have been smoking this boutique cigar literally daily for about 15 years. I have smoked everything can get my hands on, but I have not found anything comparable. They have two blends, Miami and Flamboyan. I have no use for the Miami (too mild), but I love the Flamboyan. Their production has been erratic over the years, so much so that every time I find a reliable retail source, they eventually drop them because of supply problems. However, I usually just call the factory (Sharon Moore-Bode, the owner, always answers the phone), and immediately ships me whatever I want, freshly rolled. I have been truly amazed over all of these years that they have not received more attention or any reviews.

I just got a Moore & Bode from Mitch in a trade. It sounded interesting when I looked up what they were.
