It probably doesn't count as underrated, but I'm burning a Bolivar Corona Exta right now and OH MY GOSH what a great cigar! I'm slowly turning to the Dark Side.

you hear about the Tat Havana VI angeles... but the unsung hero (or heroine) of this line is the Victorias.

I'm a big fan of the San Cristobal and the LADCEE lines. I also like Perdomo Oscuro limited, Gran Habano Vintage 2002 and CAO La Traviata Divino. The latter three being had for 3, 2 and 4 dollars respectively. The Perdomo's are very tasty, while the GH and La Trav's are a nice change of pace personally. I find the profile of DR and Nic tobacco flavors refreshing in conjunction with each other.

Wouldn't you like to know?
I agree with this totally...people really don't know what they are missing...

Also, they are some of the best constructed sticks I have had, almost on a par with Padron...

Funny as I never look at padron as well rolled. They have the worst caps in production and always seem a little too loose a draw almost under filled. Sure they burn well and will always draw but that isn't enough for me.

Buzz, I'd have to agree. The Victorias is great. I had one last weekend (my first one), and it was fantastic. Great medium bodied, full flavored smoke. It was such a tasty sucker and I couldn't get enough of it.
