Best 'Value' Cigars

Adcurium · July 2010

What cigars do you think are the best value? I keep the purple labels around for friends (b/c my stupid friends don't deserve my good stock) but I also really enjoy smoking the purples myself b/c t is a good quality smoke and a pretty darn good value. If I know I'm going to have distractions and won't get to really 'concentrate' on a smoke, I'll pull out a purple (or sometimes blue label). So, what say you gentlemen?

To me the best "value" cigars are anything free! LOL! But seriously, one of my favorite affordable smokes is the Gran Habano Vintage 2002. Very smooth and spicy.

Right now you can pick up a box of Nica Libre for $35!!! That is value!!!

I love the Nica Libre for a value smoke. Never had one burn poorly and every draw is pleasantly loose but not too loose. Construction is a big deal for me in a value smoke.

I also enjoy the Sol Cubano Cuban cabinet, but that borders on being a a mid range stick. I just think its great for the money.

I would agree with the GH 2002 above. Not a big fan of the devil's weed. Just depends on your taste. The nica libre is a great deal IMHO. Gurkha cuban legacy is right up there too for me. I also enjoy padilla achilles and pretty much anything from the 5v lineup. Just my $.02.

Oh yeah, CCom house blends. Both the corojo and brazil are awesome IMO.

My friend we have very similar taste. I would lso add if I'm spending the money on the 5 Vegas I'm usually also looking at a box of Curley Heads(40 in a box) or the Curley Head deluxe. I really love the Curley Heads probably because they were one of my firsts

Another vote for the Nica Libre, especially with this week's weekend blitz.

Definitely agree with Nica Libre and 5 vegas. I also think that Diesel Unholy Cocktail, when you buy them at box prices are a great value. Considering how good the cigar is, $3.33 is totally reasonable, IMO.

Russ55 · July 2010

My favorite budget smokes in no particular order are the Cuba Libre, Sol Cubano Cuban Cabinet, Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte and Double Maduro, and the Diesel. There are cheaper sticks out there that are still good, but for as little as I smoke I really don't need anything cheaper than those.

robbyras · July 2010

Ccom Brazilian and 5 Vegas Gold are my 2 favorite values... the Brazilian is one of my favorites regardless of value, it's just a great smoke...

Nica libre eh? My pockets are hurting for the next few weeks so I might just try these. How are they compared to the purple label. The purple label was in the top 10 on the front page a few weeks ago.

dennisking · July 2010

Nica Libre, Gurkha Park Ave., and 5 Vegas Classic are some great sticks for the money

Fourtotheflush · July 2010

Nub, you can get great deals on them if you hand around for some DD on them.

Hayblet · July 2010

Devils Weed, C.Com Cuban, Brazillian, Purple, Reds have been kind of hit n miss with me, Gurkha Park Ave, and Nica Libre

wwhwang · July 2010

If you like wood, gentle spices, and cinnamon, go with the Padilla Hybrid. They're ridiculously cheap and they're good! 20 for 39 bucks.

Sancho Panza Extra Fuerte. Great cigar, great value!

ThinBluLine06 · July 2010

+1 on the GH Vintage 2002....grab the mazo of 20 for 39.99!

Jetmech_63 · July 2010

Quintero, Flor de Oliva, 5 Vegas, CCOM Brazillian. CI Legends Orange label

JSaint · July 2010

Nica Libre! Its also the weekend blitz so thats totally a good deal. Peppery start but a great finish. Didnt want to put it out. Also Calle Ochos. People have different views on these but I have loved every single one Ive smoked. Last one I smoked I had a 3 inch ash on the end of it lol. You can get a bundle as cheap as $20....lol.
