Re: Good House Brands
Hands down the best house brands I've ever found are from Mr. Bundles. His Carbon Copy line really nails the flavors of their indended brands. Mikey Banks is a master tobacconist and has been at it forever.

Re: Good House Brands
Old Henry from Holts is the best house brand I've had.

Re: Good House Brands
Famous Nic 3000 and LHO from Holts are two really good ones IMO.

Re: Good House Brands
I'm a sucker for trying low end smokes.

Just threw a 5er of Holts Factory Special Sun Grown on my order with a couple boxes of DPG's Fumadores ($30/box on sale by the way).

Re: Good House Brands
Casa Royale & Holt's Connoisseur Robustos are two of my favorite cigars! Both are from Holt's and are Pepin blends.

Me too. I like trying them out to see if there may be something out there that's been overlooked. I'm trying some Olor's this weekend. Never had one but I've heard from some that they're pretty good, yet others say not so much. We'll see.

Re: Good House Brands
My vote goes to the Old Henrys also. Great DPG cigar with ( I think) a nice Cuban flavor. I love 'em and they're a good deal with their "black and tan" deal.

Re: Good House Brands
One that I really liked was the Cigar.com Cuban label. The Cigar.com Blue Label (not Blue Label Brand) is also good, but mild.
I bought their house brand sampler to see what I liked.
