Which of the regular production/readily available Crowned Heads lines do you prefer...and why? Four Kicks / Headley Grange/ J.D. Howard Reserve / Jericho Hill / Las Calaveras. I know there are a couple others, but availability for most of us is just not there.

Four Kicks Sublime...Awesome! Headley Grange Estupendos....Awesome!

Four Kicks: I've tried the Robusto and Corona Gorda sizes and enjoyed them both. I get nice woody flavors with some sweetness and cream. I think these are great medium smokes.

Headley Grange: Tried the Corona Gorda and Estupendos sizes - Liked the Estupendos the best. Nice dose of black pepper but not too heavey, leathery and a bit of espresso going on. More complex than the four kicks IMHO. This is more on the Medium-Full side of things to me.

Las Calaveras: Tried one of these in the Robusto size - strong on the pepper and spice side of things. Chocolate and earthy leather going on. Very good, but very strong. I have some more but am going to sit on them for a while and see if they mellow out.

Jericho Hill is on my "try it soon list" - I've heard very good things about it.

I think the Four Kicks and Headley Grange are a great place to start, and if your B&M carries Crowned Heads then they most likely have these in stock.

I've only had the Four Kicks and Headley Grange. Both are good smokes but I prefer the Four Kicks.

I have enjoyed the Four Kicks, Headley Grange and the JD Howard.

I've only had a couple of the Four Kicks. I enjoyed them and should probably try some of the other lines.

Las Calaveras is a very limited run so of course, I have to like that one best. Only 3000 boxes of each size was made and there are no more so if you like them and can find them, buy them up!

Haven't tried the JH yet, but I also really enjoy the JD Howards. I have a pre-release box of HG that is amazing but the subsequent regular release is not as good, imo.

Four Kicks is rather bland to me and has that generic, Dominican tobacco taste that I don't care for.

Four kicks is one of my favorite cigars. Las Calaveras was great, but limited release. Wasn't crazy about Headly Grange. Really like the JD Howard as well, but it's not as good as the Gericho hill imo.
