Question Torbusto or Titan?

I am about pick up a new box and I am between either the Onyx Reserve Torbusto and the Saint Luis Rey Titan. I like the Onyx Reserve blend. I know the mini belicoso got a 94 but as far as ratings go I take them with a grain of salt. A rating for me is just for the flavor profile and see if its what I like. I was unable to find the SLR Titan on Top25 so I don't know, I think I am leaning towards the SLR to try a new cigar as I have herd good things, although I don't generally like to buy a whole box just to try the blend. If I hear bad news about SLR I might just default to La Gloria Cubana, love the regular blend and I really like the serie R . Also how are the SLR serie G is the nat or mad better I would lean towards the maduro as its my favorite wrapper type besides a good sungrown. Any input would be appreciated!

Re: Torbusto or Titan?

OK, well since there seams to be no interest in those cigars (or my thread period, lol) I'm thinking about taking up TnT's sale on SLR Serie G nat #6 6x60. I have had the LGC Serie R #6 6x60 but MAD which I prefer but for 35 bucks less I think I can deal with a NAT wrapper. That is if the blend is similar or at least good. I would think LGC would be the better of the two but I would gladly be corrected. If no one answers I will have to go it alone unless someone tells me that SLR Serie G is a good blend. So if no one has any input and I go it alone. I suppose it will be either Onyx Torbusto or LGC Charlemagne MAD (Rather than trying out a new cigar by the box, which I don't want to do especially for 100 bucks) and for that one it will be how much I want to spend. Someone convince me to buy one of the 4 I have talked about. Thanks for your reply in advance, lol if any replies.
If not, I'm a grown ass man I can decide on my own!

I had a SLR Serie G maduro in a rothchild size, I believe, and it tasted like a big bowl of walnuts. It was pretty one demensional, but absolutely tasty.

I wish I could I LOVE them too! Although Christmas did some damage to my wallet I think I am going to have to go with either SLR Honduran blend or Onyx reserve as they are half the price of LGC Serie R. I love the maddies so much I haven't even tried it in nat. I don't think the SLR would be a better choice over the onyx agree or disagree anyone?
