To go the opposite way of overrated cigars, what are some smokes that you feel are underrated?
From my limited experience, I'd have to say Carlos Torano.

Helix Maduro (due to a test-drive of it by Goldy)
-
I had a Helix about a year ago some cafe somthingoranother...tasted like a goats ass...I honestly would not take one of these if they were giving them out free !!!
-
I will nominate the Onyx Reserve for the most underrated smoke. I love these cigars! They are always a good smoke and have never had a construction issue with one.

What kind of goat was it that you are comparing these to G?gmill880:I had a Helix about a year ago some cafe somthingoranother...tasted like a goats ass...I honestly would not take one of these if they were giving them out free !!!
Oh yeah, and what was the goats ring gauge ?
LMAO -
I keep meaning to try those.PuroFreak:I will nominate the Onyx Reserve for the most underrated smoke. I love these cigars! They are always a good smoke and have never had a construction issue with one. -
La Aroma de Cuba, Pinar del Rio, and Cubao.
-
I second La Aroma de Cuba. Cheap, not talked about widely, but really a great, hearty smoke.

Now that's funny.laker1963:

La Aroma de Cuba, I don't know if anyone talks chit about them, but I like them.
Edit - I posted this without reading the rest of the thread, so... ditto... -

Agreed. Everyone who tries a Torano seems to love them. However, Torano cigars don't seem to get the exposure that others do.
Maybe CCOM needs to have a Carlos Torano daily deal *hint hint* -
I didn't mind the Helix and I absolutely despised the Onyx (it just about singlehanded ruined my fantasy football draft). I really like the Sherpa Cafe. Great smoke for the money. I also like the Baccarat Sumatra #1 (which I really need to go back and refresh my opinion of this one since it was one of the first cigars I enjoyed).

Ima go with the Cusano 18 paired maduro

Sol Cubano Series B Habano Wrapper.
-
I could get behind onyx reserve as underrated, definitely one of my favorite maduros and doesn't get a lot of press.
-
In this order;
Helix
Onyx reserve
Torano
Seriously, if anyone wants to try a good helix let me know cause I have a box of em. -

Man I don't care what the goats ring gauge was ...I'd take the goat over a helix !!! -
Iam gonna jump on this and throw two out there ....... first is the Joya De Nicaragua Classico and then the Park Ave. by gurkha ....... i know how everyone loves to bash and hammer gurkha but these two specifically you really dont hear much about ...... they just lay back in the cut, and the helix just arent my thing ...... i always viewed them as a high end gas station cigar i have 4 in my humi that were gifts and i was embarrased to put them up last time i offered a trade ..... lol
-
I will agree with the La Aroma de Cuba. The Onyx is a decent smoke but not good enough to say it is underrated. I'll also add to the list, the no longer available Pryme by Alec Bradley and the La Gloria Cubana Serie R
-
Ok, in all fairness I have only had the maduro helix so the others might very well be goat like.

Butera Dorado!

Do they stay lit? I guess you don't use a punch huh?gmill880:laker1963:

A Torano was the first "real" cigar I ever had. You're right, everyone loves them, but you rarely hear about them. They're great smokes, and pretty well priced too. CCOM does need to run a daily deal on them!MAJORdorMo:

Oh god, there would go my wallet. The Casa Torano is in my top ten favorite cigars. And it costs about $5, lol.

No ...God already pre-punched them for ya ...OMG this is spiraling waayyyy outta control ...LMAO !!! People are allowed to like the Helix. Maybe its a good "starter" cigar. I think it is def. better than the Macanudos I've had.... In any case - for the price point I would NEVER go for a damn goat's ass - let's be objective here! And honestly it tasted better to me than a Nat Sherman or a CAO Gold Maduro or even a 5 Vegas Gold! And I can get at least 2 Helixs for the price of one of those mentioned... Let's not be "Lasabers" here now! No thread derailing... -
What's the finish like on the goat? Creamy?gmill880:laker1963:

El Mejor Emerald... hazelnutty after the first inch of no wrapper.
-
La Herencia Cubana. Easily worth two or three times what they sell for.
-
Punch! Call me crazy but I really love a Punch once in a while. They're what got me into premium cigars in the first place.
