$1 Cigar thread > The Humidor

Alright, we spend most of our time (and money) on high end stuff here. So lets talk about inexpensive cigars. Not shitty cigars, but cigars that you would enjoy and compare to higher priced cigars.

What is your favorite $1.00'ish cigar?

Are any of these good?
Famous smokes value line
JR Alternatives
JR ultimates
Curly Head

I'm smoking a Curlyhead right now.

They're a little more mild than I like when I smoke higher ends, but as an everyday smoke and for the money they can't be beat.

Famous smokes value line never had one
JR Alternatives I didnt care for them, but alot of people buy them
JR ultimates Excellent cigars. Not a "second" 1st quality Honduran smokes. good if you like Punch Hoyo or ERdM
Curly Head - Fuente flavor in a milder cheaper mix fill cigar. Not bad for what you get

Not a $1 cigar(about $2 bucks) but an excellent bundle smoke if you like Nicaraguan Maduros

+1 for a Curly Head.

**If I remember correctly, I've had a few Don Mateo(it had a blue wrapper? I think) while studying for some chemistry exams.

It must not have been a "bad" smoke, or maybe I was consumed with passing a test?

Please don't roast me if they are bad, I just seem to remember these during college, as a quick smoke to get me through the day!!
