nick17 Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 hey everyone I have to make a decision as to what box of cigars to buy. Right now I have two choices in mind the first is two boxes of 25 San Cristobal de la Habana El Principe or a single box of Partagas Series D #4 what do you guys think if you have anything that you think is good and in the same price range please feel free to make a suggestion thanks Nick
duwan Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 Wish I could help, but I have a problem deciding what to buy myself.
bstarrs Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 I can vouch for the El Principe, it's a great little smoke and I would suggest that as a purchase, especially if you are fairly new to cigars. The Principes were one of my first box purchases and I found them to be great smokes and good for learning to identify flavors and complexity, as they have a few quite clearly defined flavors. They a quality value smoke, but I wouldn't say to buy two boxes of them. Try something else out also.
pedrodepacas Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 I suggest going to the Czar's website(Click on Cigar Shop in the upper left hand corner of your screen) and looking into purchasing on of the "Splits" boxes. You'll get 5 each of 5 different brands of cigar. It gives you an opportunity to try mulitiple types of smokes without having to buy multiple boxes. I can vouche for the Robusto Splits, and there are some excellent smokes in there, I personally enjoyed the Cohiba Robusto, the HDM Epicure #2 and the Bolivar RC. Good Luck
tmac77 Posted May 26, 2011 Posted May 26, 2011 A split sampler pack is always a good way to go. If you don't see a particular split in the Czar shop then I am sure if you send an email to Lisa she would be able to help you out.
Scarhead Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 I have been pondering the same question and I think I'm going with the Robusto Splits
nick17 Posted May 27, 2011 Author Posted May 27, 2011 I'm not sure what im going to do yet the robusto splits looks good but I don't know if I want order from Czar because the risk of being hit buy the insane Canadian duties :s
bassman Posted May 27, 2011 Posted May 27, 2011 A major factor is which cigar do you like better? And if you haven't tried them, I'd get a sampler pack. I'd hate to buy 2 boxes & find out I didn't like the cigar. And for the record, neither of the cigars in question are favorites of mine, but I'm not buying them.
