"A fine cigar is the essence of life. The tobacco plant comes from the earth, from which we ourselves were created. Like ourselves, each leaf grows and is nurtured individually, acquiring its own characteristics, and is then graded, sorted, and matured according to their special abilities. As tobacco comes to its graduation in the making of cigars, as with the making of adults, some is left on the cutting room table and become ordinary, run-of-the-mill products. Some graduate into leadership and areas of responsibility, but a few achieve greatness, and even a touch of immortality." -Prince Sined Yar Maharg

I am looking to purchase a box of cigars but I cant decide which box to purchase from the following

1.  Flor De Las Antillas (Robusto)
2.  Alec Bradley Prensado (Robusto)
3.  Liga Undercrown (Corona Viva!)
4.  La Aroma De Cuba Mi Amor (Robusto)

I cant decide, each box is approx a hundred bucks so price doesnt matter.

Please Help

Personally I would go with the LADC from that bunch, but the Undercrown would be my second choice.

Put each cigar on a small piece of paper & toss them in a hat. Without looking, pull one out. If you feel the slightest hesitancy, that's not the one.

The Undercrown Corona Viva is an excellent cigar but I'm partial to San Andres wrappers so the LADC would be my 1st choice.

Why not buy two boxes  :biggrin:

I asked a simular. Question once got many good responses,,,the best would be the hat toss,,, and then you still pick the one you maybe even off the list provided,,,lol

If you are fairly new to the cigar hobby I would suggest taking the $100 and buying five packs of several different cigars that might strike your fancy rather than a box of one kind.
