The best cigar for the money is...

[Ermo]

I would like members to "nominate" the cigar they think is the best cigar for the money.

I nominate........

The fuente sungrown line. I have never smoked an Anejo or Opus X, but I doubt they would make this list anyway (because of price). In my opinion, of the many NC's I've smoked (although ISOM's can be nominated) the sun grown cuban belicoso is by far the best cigar you can get for the money.

I now regularly stock my humidor with these, for the price I cannot justify buying anything else.

What do you think...

Well, this might be in a different direction than you intended, but for budget smokes, I'd have to give my vote for Padron Londres. At 2 bucks a cigar, I like 'em... I like 'em A LOT.

FDO Maduro Robusto.

Padron 3000, natural or maduro. Always very good for the $$$.

This will mean nothing to you out of state-ers, but being a bottom feeder and a cheapskate, I do buy bargains quite a bit. The local chain, KwikTrip, has in store humidors in their Tobacco Outlet stores. They sell rebranded bundles under their Topic brand. Some of the best for the money cigars I smoke are the Dominican made Topic robustos. Very good for under 2 bucks per cigar. As much as I would like to, I can't always afford a 5 or 10 dollar smoke. At the end of the month, it looks way too much like a drug habit.

Just picked up a box of 20 Edge Toro Maduro's at my local B & M for 85.00 (inc. tax). Pretty hard to beat.

The Padron 2000 Maduro gets my vote @ $3 ea. by the box.
But some ISOMs, specifically the Partagas Short and Monte #4 are killer sticks for the money. I'd smoke 'em all the time, but I'm doing my damn best to horde them for later on.

04 Mag46!!. I have 2 boxes of 04 and one just hit the 2 year mark so curious on how it’s aging, smoked one. WOW… It’s one of the best tasting Mag46 I ever tasted at 2 or 3 years of aging and I’ve been smoking them for over a while now. Wonder how the 05 batches are doing?

Another bottom feeder here: The Padrons are definately worth the money, but I also like Henry Clay and Sancho Panza. You can usually find them for under $3/stick.
