What bundle do you recommend???

I'm going with the Cusano Cuban Corojo C.C. The whole bundle burned better than most A.Fuentes and they are pretty complex at 2$ a pop.

I do agree that Cuban Crafters does has some less than great bundles, for example, Don Kiki Green Label. Cuban Crafters does put out some very fine cigars though, especially their Cuban Crafters robusto...a GREAT cigar.

Here is another vote for the Tampa Sweethearts........I likr their maduro's.

For a few more dollars, you can try the Flor de Ybor City Beli Sungrown that is sold by Tampa Sweethearts. It's a decent brother to the Arturo Fuente Cuban Belicoso if you like a Sungrown wrapper.

FYI, i have been smoking the Consuegra's i got from JR over the last couple of days and i have to admit they are a pretty good cigar. i went ahead and ordered three additional bundles last night...the price is right on these cigars!

WOW!
I have a lot of choices and smoking to do

I took a 5 day weekend and found that part of my Thompson order arrived while I was away. Funny thing about Thompson, they won't send stuff to Washington state by UPS, but, the shipping sticker used to return items back to them is UPS.

I had one of their La Paloma Vintage Reserve Maduros.

When I lit it up I was rewarded with a draw close to what you would fine if you had a very thick milk shake and a small straw.

After a couple minutes I cut and then re-lit the cigar and found that the draw improved to a thick milkshake and a large straw. When I checked out what I had cut off, I found the filler was so tight that it was almost solid.

The 1st third of the cigar burnt evenly after 1 correction and the flavor/body or lack of flavor was acrid.

2nd third same as 1st third.

After an inch into the 3rd third I found no change and put it out.

I would rate this cigar somewhere below a Swisher Sweet but with out body

I believe that I will be rating their return service very soon.

Thank you for all of the suggestions, it looks like I have plenty of options and will print this out and go down the list until I find one that I really like.

Well the list is long and it will take some time to get through it, but I got a start on it tonight.

Thank you palm55 and Roosterthomas. I had a LaFloridita Pancho tonight and found with the exception of some minor burn issues, it was a very good cigar. I think with a little time in the humi, they will only get better. I will order more.

I have wanted to try the CAO Brazillia GOL for some time now but have never found them at the local B&M so I ordered a box from Famous cigars with the LaFloridita. Unfortunatly they have gone up in price, but they look and smell great. I'll try one tomorrow night.

There are so many others on this thread that look so good, I hardly know what to try next. I have bought a lot of cigars and a new humidor in the last couple months so I better wait till next month before I place my next order.

Looks like I am Coolerdor bound

Again I want to thank everyone for their recomendations.
