Duty.. I think your description of the flavor profiles are pretty acurate on all these cigars except for the Moneicristo since I have never tasted a dirty belt ( I can only imagine). I guess that would explain when people say a cigar has a leather taste.I knew before I even read the reviews that the Camacho would be the winner. I have tried several and intend to enjoy many more once I have aged them a little to compare. Thanks for the nice reviews..

Duty try the Gran Habano Siglos 3....This is a newer line I just discovered thanks to the great reviewers here , and this one knocked me over with how good it was..A must try in my opinion..The tobacco blend would confuse even Kuzi ( LOL) and he is the Master. Seriously try that one I believe it will please.

Hey Joe (joz3r) that Legend line is pretty good I smoked my way through it a couple times and had my favorites some extra time and there is only one I did not like .. But won't dis' it here... The rest good to great..If you get the sampler they give you eight different lines but you will miss some.. there are 11 now so pick up the missing ones too.

if you want the coffee side of chocolate try the onyx reserve. I should smoke more of those.

Kuz, I smoke the onyx reserve very regularly and I am a huge fan of it.  I was just wondering if you had any other cigars that are similar that I might enjoy...  My next smoke is going to be a CAO Mx2 this weekend on the golf course.  I would be thankful for any help! Thanks.

Not to jump in , but CAO MX2 is really nice. Had one recently and it had me planning on a return trip to my local cigar shop ( sorry guys can't call it a B&M ) I enjoyed the CX2 as well. same concept different wrapper(s).

PuroFreak

I can't wait to try to Mx2! I don't know if I'm more excited about the cigar or getting to play golf! Throw in a nice glass of Crown and life will be PERFECT!!! haha

Hey puro, sounds like the perfect way to enjoy the day, you'll need a few back up cigars, it takes me about six hours to finish a round of golf ( four hour on the course and two more in the rough and woods.. not to mention a few more in the clubhouse..and MX2 is only good for an hour.

I tried the Cusano 18 and wasn't very happy with it.  Wasn't strong enough for my taste.  Well, just from what I remember.  That was some time ago and I might have been a bit drunk to really get a feel for the smoke. haha  One of my favorite cigars is the Edge by rocky Patel.  Also like the CAO Brazillia and also enjoyed the CAO Criollo.

kuzi16

if you like the brazilia try the italia. its under rated. i think its better than the brazilia.

kaspera79

Hey Kuzi have you tried the America yet, with the barber pole wrapper, I don't know i didn't really care for it very much. At least not to try it again.. to many new thing I need to get to first..

kuzi16

not yet. I keep looking at it in the shop and i keep telling myself that ill pick one up. still have not. one of these days ill get a few.

j0z3r

Kuzi, what size in the Italia line do you prefer? I know this is more personal taste than anything, but I've been looking to try one and if i don't have a certain size to start with, I'll end up doing something foolish and buying one of each size or something.

Yeah, same here . I had one last week and it was the first cigar I quit way before the halfway point in a looooong time. I got nothing out of this one.. Don't get me wrong I really enjoy Rocky Patel cigars especially the Vintage line. As I said before, Great Rocky smokes 99, and that bad one...No more Connecticuts for me..And I could not recommend them either. But, the Vintage line, Sungrown, Fusion, Edge, all great In my opinion..Nice review by the way.

j0z3r

Hmm, that's kind of a bummer. I was looking forward to trying the RP Connecticut, the one I have has a very nice fragrance, but perhaps that's the only thing nice about it. Oh well, they can't all be good.... especially with Rocky since he has about a bazillion lines.

kaspera79

I am in no way deterred from the line just that one label, personal taste I guess There must be thousands of people who would disagree with my opinion and that I must respect..

Nice, I leave for a week and bombing started on the ccom board. The MX2 is my favorite everyday smoke, its wonderful with a glass of bourbon and a nice bourbon barrel aged beer.

H.Upmann's are underrated little cigars. I tend to enjoy one from time to time.

dutyje:

I know I've been smoking some lousy cigars of late. As I turn over my current inventory I'll look to get some better stuff based on everyone's recommendations and what I've learned about my tastes. I'll burn half of my inventory over the next couple weeks, and should develop a clearer picture about what it is that I like.

You'll burn half your inventory in a couple weeks! You either need to buy more or you smoke a lot, LOL. I'm just teasing man. Whats left in that inventory their could be some trades out there is you are interested.
