Retailers pushing their wares have a specific forum: http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/forumdisplay.php?f=49

I asked for an opinion.. Not a purchase.

Famous has some decent smokes, but those aren't them. Pass.

Why not post your list here instead as per the rules http://www.cigarasylum.com/vb/showth...89#post1276589

That might be more believable had you posted the list here rather than linking to your site with a giant "BUY NOW" button on the page....

Fair enough.. I've taken the liberty of reporting my own post for removal.

Good day, gentlemen..

I'm done here.

I dont think anyone elses list will have the option to buy. As the others where trying to say this looks more like an advertisement vs a topic trying to bring up a discussion.

Humberto,

As a site Admin I figured I'd step in here and weigh in on this issue. While I understand you are trying to solicit an opinion and stimulate discussion on certain cigars, the initial post with almost nothing more than a link to purchase said cigars comes across as trying to sell your own product instead of create a discussion.

While we have no problems with vendors posting in the regular forums we do ask that all sale threads be placed in the vendor forum. If you were to have put up a list of the cigars you find to be sleeper cigars and then solicit the opinions of others that would have been fine. However a 3 sentence post with a direct link to a purchase page doesn't fit that bill.

Since we are seeing a rise in this type of activity I will ask that all future threads of this type be more discussion than sale or they will be moved to the retailer room. I will leave this thread up for now and edit the original post. If you'd like to continue the discussion on sleeper cigars you are more than welcome.

I agree with the El Cobre. Great cigar that seems to sit under the radar outside of a few cigar forums.

As for myself, La Unica and Don Diego Coronas get no attention anywhere, but are two of my favorite "morning with coffee" smokes.

The El Cobre is an AWESOME stick!! :-) :-)
[Reply]

Alec Bradley Overture Robusto - :-)
Carlos torano Signature Robusto - Haven't tried yet, but I have one in the humi, I think.
El Cobre Double Fuerte - :-)
El Triunfador #4 - :-)
EP Carillo Encantos - Looking to try this one.
Famous VSL Nic Robusto - If this is the PdR stick, I've been curious about it.

El Cobre's kick ass. I think a lot of brothers like the Alec Bradley Overture, I've been gifted a number of them and seen a lot turn up in bombs.
[Reply]

The Carlos Torano Signature Series is another good stick...but I prefer the belicoso over the robusto. :-)
[Reply]

Never heard of El Cobre, but me thinks I need to give it a try. Is it a Famous exclusive?
[Reply]

Nope. Made by Oliva. Lots of places carry it now.
[Reply]

By sleeper, if you mean great cigars that don't get a lot of press, I'd add:

Taboo Twist (hot around here some time back, kinda fallen off the radar)
Sancho Panza Double Maduro
Casa Royale (DPG blend for Holt's)
HdM maduro blends (Dark Sumatra, 1066)
RyJ Viejo
