Ok, I am in need of advice from you fellow inmates. I am looking for some recommendations for fuller bodied smokes. I have a some Man O' War's and some AB Maxx's coming, but what else do you guys recommend? I am still waiting for the new stock of Diesel's to come in to CI (anyone know when this will happen?). I am trying to get ready for the grilling and warm weather season. Thanks folks.

I would probably recommend some Joya de Nicaragua Antanos, La Flor Dominicana Double Ligeros, CAO LX2s and possibly a Cain Maduro or 2.

I've read alot of the Cain reviews and they seem to be one of those love em or hate em cigars. But the straight ligero really entices me. And I really loed the CAO LX2's but I'm a CAO whore anyways.

True, the Cains usually are love 'em or hate 'em. Personally, I find them to be pretty good.
Also if you can find the JdN Antano Dark Corojo I highly recommend it!

good suggestions....since you are a CAO guy, you know that the Brazilia is a nice line of full bodied smokes. RP Edge is one of my favorite full bodied smokes.

I have a few suggestions for you:
- Don Pepin Garcia Cuban Classic; they come in a variety of shapes and sizes
- La Gloria Cubana Serie R; the number 4 is a good trial size, but you can go for the 6 or 7 for a longer smoke. I prefer the maduro but the natural is good too
- Perdomo 2 Limited Edition; these are medium to full and very pleasant
- Cain; these are all Ligero tobacco and about as full-bodied as you can get
- Arturo Fuente Hemingway Work of Art Maduro; these are very nice pleasant smokes packed into a small perfecto
Just my
:-)

I've smoked cigars for several years now and still haven't tried an Oliva. Guess that will have to change.

I can't believe I forgot the Olivas!!!
:-)
The Masterblend is an amazing stick IMO (and the Oliva V isn't too shabby either
:-) )!

It is a really nice stick, my favorite being the Lancero...
:-)
The DPG Cuban Classic mentioned above is an outstanding smoke but not quite as full-bodied as some of the others mentioned.
I still love them though and the 1977 Corona Especial (Petty Lancero) is probably my next box purchase.

I'll keep that in mind. The belicoso looks like it would do also. I like bigger ring gauges.

You know, the first time I tried a V I tried the beli and wasn't really impressed.
When I gave it another shot I grabbed the double robusto and it was very nice.

Oliva might make some of the best cigars across the board. Definitely need to get your hands on all of their lines. Cain are very tasty, not over powering

Padron's look great, but I can't justify spending that much when I could get 2 or three good smokes for the price of 1 Padron. But might have to splurge just once to see what all the hypes about.
