ramon allones, which size? specially selecteds or petit coronas or ramonitas or small clubs . Ramons are nice. My favourite is Ramon Gigantes (Double Corona)

 

Aiyoh, why he intro Monte 4 to you...

thats a very very common cigar. only the brand is popular so he recommend

 

Next time try Rafael Gonzales Petit Corona

i went there around 4-5pm yesterday... bought a cutter, carrying case and

1 cigar that the nice man over there recommended me something which i

cannot remember now... comes in a tube which is vanilla coloured... told me

that it is something light and good for a newbie to try... when i get home later i

will tell the name... but i have not tried it yet so cannot confirm how's the taste...

still got some Romeo Julieta no4 to finish first... i'll keep that new one for

another day......

I went to Ebay Worldwide to check out the cutters there....Woh, they are very cheap and some even comes with very beautiful case carrying case.

 

These are the few.

This is my favourite!

comes in a vanilla tube???

 

oh no, there are only basically two cuban brands that come in vanilla tube..

 

Monte and Bolivar...

 

since you cant remember, i reckon it's the bolivar.

 

the bolivar is full bodied and heavy cigar which is usually too strong for starters.

earthy and woody and spicy right from the start. can be bitter too.
