Unknown or Local Habanos Cigars Brands Recommendations

Hi, I’m starting this thread so that us cigar smokers of the lounge can share our experiences and knowledge with not-well-known but not-necessarily worse than mainstream/internationally recognised Habanos cigar brands’, and make each other some recommendations. I’ll start with mine.


La Gloria Cubana – Medaille D’or No.3

For those who like thin—and I mean really thin—cigars, this model is ideal. A long panatela model, it is wrapped in mid-brown leafs, so it is medium in strength and is perfect for the very patient smoker (and I mean nearly pipe-patient).


Sancho Panza – Sanchos

For those who like the huge cigars, gran corona size, that produce a lot of smoke – these are loud cigars, so I don’t recommend to smoke them in crowded places or anywhere where it my annoy the people around. For those who like to start smoking at 5 and end at 9, this cigar is ideal, with a woody scent and honey flavour.

I’m hoping to read some good recommendations.

By Jingo! Good luck to you with this excellent thread but, maybe, it should carry a Health Warning to Loungers for whom the joy of fine tobaccos represents forbidden pleasure!! What about Ramon Allones Gigantes - if you really want to make smoke like a battle ship?

ok, there it goes.....

Health Warning!!!!!

Tabacco kills, and so does marriage, and work, and car driving, and so many things cause cancer (I recently real an article about a study that says that nearly sorts of foods, even some vegtables, can cause cancer), and if you want to live in order to avoid death, you have to be like a mommy, isolated from everything, and that would be dying in life.

I'll tell those people what: tabacco kills? Maybe, but it also gives life, and smoking a good cigar gives one life, I live more when I smoke.

"To live a hundred years one must avoid all the things for which one wants to live a hundred years" or something similar said Woody Allen in one of his films, and I couldn't agree more.

I really don't know why the people against tabacco, the government, and the institutions are against cigars: they would help their cause much more by promoting consumption of pure tabacco cigars amongst cigarrette smokers, because they are much less harmfull, much more rewarding as being more relaxing, and much less (none for me) addictive. It would be a starting move for many to quit tabacco, it's much easier from cigars than from cigarrettes with chemicals of all sorts added to them.

But let's stop this debate, I want to know of more cigars. I've never tried the Ramon Allones, I'll write it on my must-try cigar list.

I couldn't agree more - and do try Ramon Allones - frankly, I think that you have to go far to beat a Cohiba Lanceros - but let the debate on smoking fume on, in another thread, where it might never end...........
