The question makes no sense. IMHO.

Hmmm....Let me put it this way. If, for whatever reason, it was impossible to get your hands on an Habana what cigar would you settle on?

Re: Survey: What NC's come closest to ISOM's

A lot of the BOTL's here love Cremosa's....Not had one but I hear they are almost sorta kinda like tasting like they were rolled by Castro himself. Does that sentence even make sense? Wow it must be getting late. Can't say I have enough knowledge to help you out. Hope some people get on here with some cool things to try. I'd sorta like to see how this comes out.

first, i would tell you to do a search on this subject, and don't be surprised when you get about 5-10 results back asking the very same question.

i've never smoked an ISOM (aren't they made by Perdomo?), but i have smoked my share of cuban cigars.

and my answer would be - none of them.

A few from the Don Pepin line...Tatuajes & Cabaiguans...the the blends are incredible and the taste is the closest NC to a Cuban I've ever had...both of them are favorites...
