  • 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 time 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.

Or try Cigars international. Try One of thier mild to medium samplers or medium to full or whatever you like. This way you get to try multiple brands and countries of origins. You will not like everything, but you'll begin to get an idea of you do like so you can focus your buying towards that in the future.

Well how long have you been smoking and what do you like or dislike? That will determine what kind of sampler you need to look at.

i am smoking for 2 years. mostly cohiba(and i like them a lot), some partagas, montecristo and romeo y juliet. the most known brands as you understand.
but I am willing to explore the smoke and taste.

lets say about 90 dollars per pack.

First off, do not ever order from Thompson's.

Second, it sounds like you are used to smoking Cuban cigars, and though there are Dominican made cigars that share the same brand, they are nothing alike.

Cigar international is reputable, and one that wasn't mentioned, Holt's, is a fine place to shop online.

I wouldn't even mess with any of the others you are looking at based on what you are currently smoking!!! MAYBE some Don Pepin blends and some Tatuaje

I tend to agree with Mike, especially given your location where Cubans are readily available. If you really want to try the NC's (non-Cubans), the two he mentions are excellent. I would also recommend the Arturo Fuente Hemingway line and the Padron 1964 series.
