alright, after reading all the posts you guys have convinced me. I am doing it.

I'm looking for recommendations on my first ISOM purchase. Something medium bodied spicy, creamy and in the Robusto size. Any info you guys can provide me would be much appreciated.

Thank you in advance

Stay away from glass tubes?

 

[Yorkie077]

No glass tubes!!!!!!!! Wont happen. I may be a chimp but I am not a chump!!!!!

Spicy?
Robusto?
Creamy? hmmm

two out of three ain't bad... PARTAGAS SERIE D No4

I'm not really sure they could be said to be creamy, the only creamy descriptions I see most of the time are in referrence to Cohibas. But spicy and Robusto are the two descriptors used most with the SD4's. They will knock you around and you'll be coming back for more.

You may wish to pick up a cab of Hoyo Epicure #2s. The '03s that I have are awesome!!! PSD#4s, and RASS are also great alternatives.

No question: Partagas Serie D#4. But the
Epi #2 is a close second.

I would also say the PSD4. A great cigar. I have a box from August 2002. I don't get a whole lot of spice but they have amazing flavor and complexity and the construction is top notch.

I agree the PSD#4 for a Robusto lover is a must. Also, consider the Vegas Robaina Famoso or the Ramon Allones Specially Selected.Both of these are reasonably priced . Good Luck

damn, looks like I'll have to pick me up the Partagas and the Epicure #2!!

I have to weigh in on the RASS as a great first smoke. If you like it at all, grab a box of Cab Coronas to set down for a couple of years. I think that cigar may well be one of the real sleepers from recent production.

I would for sure get a cab of Hoyo Epicure #2's. They are what your looking for. Go for the 50 cab, cuz if you don't, you'll wish you had...

 

[Yorkie077]

guys, need more help here! I've looked at the websites listed on clubstogie's home page for the purchase. Have you guys had good luck with any of the retailers? I notice large price differentials.

Any recommendations?

Thank You!

I wish that I could help you my friend but inasmuch as I live in the states, I have not been able to order from any of the vendors listed. Perhaps the other LLG's can be of more assistance, but I have not been able to find anyone who ships isoms to the states.

 

[Lamar]

BTW, should you find a vendor that is willing to ship isom's to the states, please let me know so that I can finally get around to trying one of those puppies...ok?

All the above mentioned cigars are great but you might as well get the Cohiba Robustos so robmcd doesn't try to mooch from ya.
