I predict UBC will tell you to go for the Bespoke Rob, as they look amazing, and he highly approves of them.

I agree, I think he will to, they are just a bit more expensive then say the PSTD#4 or Bolivar.

Trying to keep the box of 25 under 200!

The Bolivar Belicosos Finos, or the HDM Petite Robusto look like a good choice.

Ordered some goods tonight. Still building my humi, which only holds 100 sticks, so I have been buying 5-10 packs generally. Price per cigar is higher, but I get variety and get to try a lot more stuff.

Today's catch:
CC's --
Trinidad Robusto T's (12)
Cohiba Siglo IV (5)

Other --
Gurkha Titan (1)
Gurkha Crest (1)
Rocky Patel Decade Torpedo (5)

It was cheaper to get the two Gurkha's and the 5 pack than just the 5 pack. Gotta love how that works.

I havent smoked one in a while but am excited to smoke one this weekend on the ferry from Lewes DE to Cape May NJ. My local Porsche club should have 20+ Porsches on the ferry and the ride is about an hour long. Perfect spot for a cigar no?

I completely agree! Variety is the way to go, even if it cost a little more. Nice selections!

Enjoying a cigar makes any spot perfect! Sounds like it will be a good time.

I would personally recommend the Rocky Patel Edge Maduro, in the Toro size. You can pick this cigar up at most B&M's for around $5 a stick. Take your time with this cigar, as it is full bodied. Best of luck with basic training Andrew!
