I have several cigars in the humi that I have yet to try. Which one should be next? The choices are:
Gurkha Titan II,
CAO Brazilla,
Joya de Nicaragua Antano 1970.
I will be at a bonfire tomorrow night in the wonderful Florida heat. Looking to see which one you guys enjoy. I am bringing some mild sticks for some friends I'm tyring to get into cigars.

I'd say the CAO Brazilla, but only because I haven't had the other two yet.
-
My vote is for the Antano, dot get me wrong i really loved the brazillia but have yet to try the antano and it sound uber-yummy
-
The Brazillia is the only one of those I've tried and I thought it was a good smoke. Make sure you eat something first if you are not a seasoned smoker because it is a little stronger than some. As long as you get a good meal in ya it should be ok.
-
I will make sure that I have food in me. I have heard the same thing about the Antano. Would like some more opinions, I have a feeling no matter which wins it will be a good night.
-
I'm in the same boat as Puro. It is a good cigar but a lil strong.
-
is this a rhetorical question? umm, well I'd let most of them sit for a few months especially the titan. The America should be okay.
-
Uhhh... He didn't list an America...phobicsquirrel:is this a rhetorical question? umm, well I'd let most of them sit for a few months especially the titan. The America should be okay. -
he should try it though.
-
Thats one I still need to try as well. That and the Italia are the top 2 CAOs on my list right now. I like the Criollo, Brazillia, Mx2, and Lx2 so far.
-
I will try it, the ones I listed are ones that I have but haven't tried yet. Next time I'm at the local B&M I will pick up an America.phobicsquirrel:he should try it though. -
I haven't had any of the ones you listed other than the titan 2. give that one some time though unless you have a couple to spare. it's not bad but after a few months I'm sure it will be as good as the titan 1. that puppy is pretty good with about 7 months on it. I'm sure with some more time it would be a smoother. The titan 2 I tried was a bit harsh but still a good stick. I do prefer the titan 1 though.

What size of the Joya Antaño do you have? My vote is for the Antaño, I think it is an awesome smoke, though if you're not ready it can, and probably will, overwhelm you. Eat a good meal and take your time with it. If you have the robusto...well, good luck, that one wobbled me good, the belicoso is much more balanced. All in all, a very good and very strong Nicaraguan puro...and as some of you know, I love me a good Nica puro.
-
I love the Antono. The other two I have yet to try. If you smoke the Antono, do yourself a favor and smoke it nice and so slow. You'll know what I mean.
-
thats a hard choice...
what sizes are those three?
this info, along with your other plans for the day, could totally change what one to pick. -
The Titan of course is the presidente, 7x52. The Brazillia is the Gol, 5x56. The Antano is the Consul, 4.5x52. I will be smoking these this afternoon hanging out with some friends after we eat some burgers and other stuff off the grill. The rest of the night will be a bonfire and some drinking.
-
I still say go with the Joya, but go slow because it will be strong. In my opinion though, it's the best of that bunch.
-
I'm going to try out the Joya, I'll let you guys knw tomorrow what I think.
-
I was pleased with the Antano. I could tell from the get go it was a stronger cigar than I normally smoke. I smoked it after I ate and drank a water while smoking it. I will be buying some more to set in the humi for a little bit. Next up will be the Brazillia. Then the American.
-
Check out the Joya in the belicoso, in my opinion it is a very tasty smoke. The size tempers the strength a bit so it is not a knee knocker as much as some of the other sizes.
