jwr0201 Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 I'm in need of some sage advice here. Looking to pick-up a couple of CnC cigars boxes primarily for a tasty everyday smoke and to keep me away from the resting 'nicer' sticks to allow them more time to age. Which ones would you all recommend! These are the ones I'm looking at; RyJ Co en Cedro box Trinidad Reyes half box (12) HdM Palmas Extra box Rafael Gonzales Perlas box PL Montecarlos box Thanks! RR
Troels Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Prefer the trinis myself, but dont consider them cheap, so I'll recommend montecarlos which can be found cheap - and is a good cigar
JohnS Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Cheap and Cheerful? Rafael Gonzales Perlas and Por Larranaga Montecarlos should keep you busy and (mostly) satisfied for awhile! 1
garbandz Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 Por Larr panatelas,Jose Piedra,both are good cheapies. Parti and RyJ mille fleurs are very good and just a few $$ more. San Cristobal El Principe is an excellent shorty,less than $5,as are parti short,RASCC,and Upmann HC. 1
DWC Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 I know they're not on your list but I like the Por Larranaga Panatelas too. Another to take a look at is the Partagas De Luxe. Great underrated cigar for a good price ...if you like Partagas. -Dan
jdo2110 Posted November 8, 2015 Posted November 8, 2015 A lot of good options. I guess it depends on what flavor profile your after. Each of those have something good to offer. Any flavors you like best? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Scardinoz Posted November 9, 2015 Posted November 9, 2015 I haven't had those Trinidad Reyes yet but they sure look tasty and I'm thinking they may be my first foray into Trinidad.
next Posted November 10, 2015 Posted November 10, 2015 Partagas Short!!!!! Principes Bolivar CJ PL montecarlos
jwr0201 Posted November 11, 2015 Author Posted November 11, 2015 No votes for the Coronitas en Cedro. Are they not quite as tasty as the ones recommended? Reason I'm interested in those is that I've read the RyJ's are on the medium-full side. Personally, I tend to prefer a more full cigar.
NSXCIGAR Posted December 8, 2015 Posted December 8, 2015 On the OP's list I'd have to go with the PLMCs. For a general short everyday smoke the BCJ, RASCC or SCDLH El Principe are my go-tos. And of course, I smoke the hell out of JLP Petit Cetros.
earthson Posted December 27, 2015 Posted December 27, 2015 Trini Reyes by a country mile - very elegant and satisfying when they've had some time to rest. The PL Montecarlos are a personal favorites well - very affordable and although they need time to shine, they're not bad with only a year or 2 on them.
