Best smokes under $5

[Mark Twain]

Due to the number of cheap bastards out there, (I rank at the top of this list ) who are on a budget and would like to find a nice cigar for under or around $5 I've decided to ask the fine up standing members of CP to begin a list of cigars that cheap noobs (like me) may find. . .enlightening.

list name, size, wrapper, and msrp if you know it. (List any sites that have them below MSRP too)

My first five
AF Cuban Belicoso Sungrown 5.7 x 50 $4.29 at CI
AF Hemingway Short story 4 x 48 $4.00 at Billboard tobacco
LFD Double Ligero DL-700 6.5 x 60 $5.35
Oliva "o" Classic Ole 5 x 50 $3.60
Juan Lopez Epicure #1 6 x 54 $3.69

 

[HapaLee]

Padron Fumas- about $2
Padron 2000- about $3
Padron 3000- about $3.50
Padron 4000- about $4
Padron 5000- about $5

Licenciado Wavell about $2

 

[Dice]

Punch Double Maduro Rothschild $4.25 at JR Cigars or 101.95 for a box of 50
Genuine Pre Embargo Counterfit Cubans Edition 1958 Hermosa $4.00 at JR Cigars or 97.50 for a box of 50
Genuine Pre Embargo Counterfit Cubans Edition 1958 Gordito $4.00 at JR Cigars or 97.50 for a box of 50
El Rey Del Mundo Robusto Larga $3.65 at JR Cigars or 71.95 for a box of 20
Conseguera #9 Maduro $1.50 at JR Cigars or 22.00 for a bundle of 25

I recommend each one of these as smokes that I always have handy and always enjoy! Especially the Punch, to this day one of my favorite cigars made PERIOD!

A few good bargains:

• Padron Londres (about $2.50, natural and maduro)
• AF Cuban Corona (my B&M sells singles for $4.30, natural and maduro)
• Saint Luis Rey Rothschilde (NC, under $3, natural and maduro)
• Punch Rare Corojo Rothschilde
• Oliva "O" Classic Ole (about $3.50)
• Don Tomas Classic Cameroon Robusto (can't recall MSRP, but under $5)
• Carlos Torano Exodus Gold Robusto (no idea what the MSRP is on singles, but I can usually get a fiver for less than $15 on the net)

Edited for spelling.

Always the same answer from me:

AF Chateau Fuente Sungrown

 

[Newfie]

Apathy was thinking along the same lines as I was:

Sancho Panza Double Maduro La Mancha

Rocky Patel Edge Missile (Maduro or Corojo)

I don't exactly or rightly know MSRP on either, but well under $5.



Edit:

Always the same answer from me:

AF Chateau Fuente Sungrown

:love:

 

[tigger]

AF 858 in Cameroon or Maduro.

 

[Apathy78]

Apathy was thinking along the same lines as I was:

Sancho Panza Double Maduro La Mancha

At JRCigar it is under $50 for a box of 20 of either the DM or the XF
The La Mancha is about $35
Well worth it IMO :thumbs:

 

[AVB]

Oliva "O" Maduro if you do some shopping around are $5 or less.

 

[Strayvector]

Partagas Shorts

 

[cuppajack]

This list is rocking and rolling!

LGC Wavell is an awesome medium-full smoke for 3-4 bucks.

but for $5 you cannot go wrong with an AF 858. Those are good any time, paried with nearly anything, on the road, on the links, on a boat, in a lounge, etc etc.
