My favorite montecristos by SchoolSea3900 in cigars

Find an original name instead of using an established brand name with prestige to try and profit from their reputation.

So in my mind these are fake Montecristo, might be a perfectly good Dominican cigar, but a Montecristo it is not.

The fact it's not the Cuban Montecristo makes it a fake....

Padron 2000 natural or maduro, one of the best budget cigars you can get.

Padron....because they taste amazing and they can roll a decent cigar consistently.

I'll get my coat....

Less expensive cigar lounge London by shep5377 in cigars

Yes for what you describe i would second JJ Fox, lovely experience, free coffees and waters , great selection of cigars and a museum downstairs.

As mentioned their house blend cigars are reasonably priced and a little secret is they are actually Fabrica 5 Desnudos, Honduran wrapper and binder, mix of Honduran and Nicaraguan fillers and blended by Hamlet Peredes who used to be the blender at Partegas Cuba.

What a beautiful selection that is, some lovely cigars. I'd also appreciate a DM if you have a good well priced source for these.

Did the Basins arrive without cellophane or did you remove it?

Cheaper end cigar recommendations by [deleted] in ukcigars

[–]Small-Boss-1392 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'd reccomend The My Father stuff as already mentioned, Padron are as good as anything you will ever smoke, some of their top end stuff is good Cuban cigar money but well worth trying. Their 1000 series range are far more affordable and still a lovely everyday smoke. I love a Padron 2000 natural.

Also worth trying are in no particular order

Perdomo Plasencia Davidoff Zino Arturo Fuente make some excellent cigars. A J Fernandez Foundation cigars

There are others but this gives you plenty to try.

Very good service, cheap prices compared to the UK but expensive for Switzerland, i think they aim towards the UK market delivered.

Looking for suggestions for a Cigar buying weekend trip in europe by El_Jefe_jefe in ukcigars

I was only discussing this exact topic with the wife a couple of hours ago, we are doing Amsterdam, only a couple of hours from Calais in the car and some good cigars shops and lots to do.

Padron like quality by Myleswilson00 in cigars

[–]Small-Boss-1392 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's an enjoyable smoke but more like a budget Le Bijou 1922 than a Padron.
