Hello Everyone!

I was a bit sceptical thinking that I was going to be let down because in the past I have not been to impressed by the cigars I smoked (only a handful) but WOW! I think I am hooked!

The Paduro 2000 Natural was fantastic! I really enjoyed the earthy, nutty taste. It drew great and burned even all the way until the end.

I found the Paduro more satisfying taste wise than the La Flor I am smoking now, although the La Flor is more full and bit more satisfying right after a meal. The La Flor had some sweetness that I liked probably from the Maduro wrapper, but just wasn't as tasty to me as the Paduro.

I smoked both with some scotch and enjoyed both, but I would have to pick the Paduro if I had to chose one of the two to smoke again.

So, my question is does anybody have any suggestions on my next cigars to try? I am just buying singles from a B&M until I find a few cigars that I would like.

Also, I am receiving my humidor next week and was wondering if there are any cigars that aren't too expensive but tend to age better than average?

I apoligize for any spelling mistakes. I couldn't install the iespell onto the computer I am writing from.

Thanks!

Okay, I'm going to go out on a limb and assume you mean a Padron 2000 natural?

If so, and you liked the maduro wrapper of the LFD, then definitely try the Padron 2000 maduro. Most people seem to prefer those to the natural. As for aging, the Padron maduro is excellent with age on it. Anywhere from 6 months to a few years will make these even better.

In the similar price range that you may enjoy are the Ambos Mundos, Cubao, Illusione, and Fuente 858's.

Also, head over and check out the review section here. Lot of good things in there. Also do a search for the "low price review" thread.
 
I second Brent's suggestion to try Illusiones. The Illusione -88- is a good start, but they may be a bit difficult to find at your local B&M. I've purchased mine online for the most part. Check out the Illusione website for a list of authorized dealers.
