My Favorite Sticks
Posted on Thursday, June 10, 2010 in Informational
I get several requests for ‘what are your favorites’ each week, so I’ve gone ahead and created a short list. This is by no means a ‘Top’ list, simply what MY personal taste favs happen to be at the moment. If you find yourself agreeing with the flavors I tend to get from sticks, I would suggest you try all of these!
In no particular order:
Arturo Fuente Anejo
CAO Black
El Primer Mundo Rosado
El Titan De Bronze Redemption Maduro
Mi Barrio
Old Henry
Padron 1964
Pinar Del Rio Seleccion Reserva Limitada
Esteban Carrera
San Cristobal Lancero
Sir Vin Cigars Merlin’s Magic
What would you recommend for those who like mild?
Try the Gurkha Park Ave and the Rocky Patel Fusion.
How ’bout the Carlos Torano 1916 Cameroon, mild to med. Good flavors.
Try the Canbinet series from Ashton.
I am a beginner and am not looking to spend that much on my first cigar. What would you recommend?
I always suggest new smokers start with large samplers to get the widest variety possible to tr and figure out what they like.
Any suggestion on a sampler pack then? Also, from who? Any online sellers that you might recommend?

I just started to enjoy smoking, and I tend to like cigars that have a nice leather and creamy sweet taste is there anything you can recommend?
Read through some of the reviews – the Esteban on this list would probably fit the bill!
Thanks Bryan! love your site!
Just wanted to say “thanks” for your reviews, etc. I’m a newbie to cigar smoking, and this site is really helpful! I’m finding the sampler pack at Cigars International real helpful in determing what I like and don’t like. Keep up the good work!
Hey Bryan! I just turned 21 and I am also a new member to the cigar smoking industry. Just wanted to say that I have been reviewing your site lately with your reviews and thought it was pretty good. Keep up the good work! I also wanted to ask you, what do you recommend for a good-decent, medium mild chocolate creamy, with a little kick of spice cigar for a good decent price? I say at least no more than 4$ a stick?
Thanks for being a fan, Jackson! I can’t think of an exact fit right now, but I would use the search at the top of the site and see what comes up for chocolate or cocoa. As far as price you’ll have to see what you can get things for in your area, prices vary wildly.
Cool thanks Bryan!
One more question, how often do you smoke cigars and are you addicted to it?
I smoke maybe 10 a week and no there is no addiction.
How was your first experience, what made you started to smoke cigars and how did you first taste it?
Um I have no idea that was like 20 years ago
Just a line to say, your cigar reviews are top notch, second to none. Thoroughly informative and entertaining. Take care and keep the reviews coming.
I would like some suggestions on the creamiest cigars out there. They are my favorite cigars, CAO Black, is currently my pick in that category. Thanks.
I’m a newbie to the cigar world and recently purchased a Cuvee Blanc Robusto cigar from my local shop, and was wandering if there are any opinions on this particular cigar. I’m also open to any suggestions for future purchases.
Cigars in your humi…..cellophane suits on or off….anyone? Thank you.
I leave them on until I smoke em. I actually take birthday suit cigars and place them in an open ziplock to keep them separate from the other sticks in my humi.

Your reviews are always top notch. Anytime I’m looking to try a new cigar I search your site first to see if you have already reviewed it. Keep up the good work.
I got some Tubo cigars as a gifts for my birthday recently, and I don’t know how to care for them in the humidor. Should I leave them inside the tube or take them out?
I’m a noob…but I know I like coffee, cocoa and cream flavors without the head buzz. What on your list fits the bill? (it doesn’t have to be on your list)
Here’s a question. I see in your reviews you talk about getting through 1/3 of the cigar. Then, you say you’ll see how it progresses. Why would the taste of the cigar change so much from the first third to the second third? What is it that might develop in the cigar? How is it possible?
Thanks, Bing
I was in Santa Fe this weekend, moving my daughter, and I stopped in at the Santa Fe Cigar Co. Prices were very reasonable compared to B&Ms in Colorado. I bought my first Paul Garmirian and wow! What a cigar. It was very tasty and burned excellent. My son in law bought a couple of Arganese CL3s and they were surprisingly good for a sub 5 dollar smoke.
Thanks again for all the good info on your site,
GAR
