Recommendations: Cigars for Pastors

[ginoc]

I hope that title made you go scratch your head.
I'm part of a small group of pastors/missionaries who, once a year, get together in South Florida to slow down together, plan, enjoy cigars, conversation, bourbon, and other good things. We aren't your typical group of pastors... within moderation, we enjoy the freedoms we all have. I'm heading out a week from tomorrow.

As a gift to my brothers, I wanted to bring some cigars for the weekend. I know what to get in the flavor profile I prefer (full flavor/strength), but I am not so sure when it comes to a decent mild cigar. Maybe a Connecticut wrapper? I've recently enjoyed an Undercrown Shade but haven't had enough Connecticut to know if I'd like something else more. What would you recommend I get for my brother's to enjoy? Thanks for any help/input.

I enjoy a mild\medium cigar on occasion, my dad prefers them exclusively so I always have them stocked for him. My favorite is the Montecristo yellow robusto and his is New World Connecticut by AJ Fernandez. The UC Shade is a good cigar also IMO.

Yes! Tat Cabaiguan, I have enjoyed that as well. Never had any of the others. Hmm. I may need to do some "research" bro.

Hmmmm lighter cigars:

Roma Craft Intemperance EC
LFD Suave
Fuente Chateau/Double Chateau
Camacho conni
Illusione Epernay

 

[StogieNinja]

Second the Intemperance line, its very good. Fuente's Chateau line is a great mild, budget-conscious choice.
Are you guys PCA?

Treat em right....get L'Atelier original in either 52 or 54 size.

are you implying that handing out illusione epernays isn't treating your friends right!?

My father conni as well is a flavorful mild easy smoke

Thanks for all the recommendations, bro!

I'm going to go another route. I say go with a Room 101 San Andres No. 213. If you really want a CT I like the Perdomo Factory Tour.

Thanks for those recommendations, brother.
We are from varying denominations. This get together is for our network - The Table Network. Feel free to look us up online.

That is such a good cigar. Not a bad idea right there, brother.

 

[StogieJim]

Intemperance all day long!

Also, I'd add the Herrera Esteli. It's above mild, solidly in the medium range, but very flavorful.

theres always davidoff if you wanna spend a ton of money, they seem to specialize in smooth mild sticks

LOL. Of course not. Just stating the high regard that I have for L' Atelier original. Never have and never will put down a brother's recommendation of a smoke...except I honestly don't know how anyone could recommend El Rey Del Mundo Choix Supremes.

For infrequent cigar smokers, I'm a big fan of Macanudo Hampton Court and Fuente Short Story.

 

[oside]

Sounds like a good group of guys!
