Is there anything better/cheaper?
As a new cigar smoker trying a few sample packs, I found these to be the smoothest smoke I have tried. Great flavor, draw, consistency etc. I used to smoke cigs and am not a fan of the ashtray smell in the morning and have to say the 1875s have the least offensive next day smell.

Buying sample packs they are $3-5 each and I would say they are worth every penny but would like a cheaper alternative for everyday duty.

Recommendations?

IMO...

that is about the low end for anything worth lighting.


Much lower and they are Drug Store cigars.

I was wondering the same thing. I just had one last weekend with some Buffalo Trace, which was also new to me, and enjoyed both.  It was the best thing available without driving an hour.

Newb here also, but i just bought a box of fuente 858 maduros that came in at $5/ea.

My problem is that once i tried better quality cigars, its hard for me to drop back down to cheap ones.  Lowest i can do are the fuentes or lower end padron.  I'll take some recommendations too.

Not really my kind of cigar, at all, but it has good ratings. I'm thinking of grabbing some just for the hell of it.

Got them, not bad. Much better than the clones I had been trying. I will give them some time to stabilize in the humidor and try them again. Thanks.

I'm just starting out and bought the CI bulk pack of 1875's and Mac green bands.

I like both but tried a Mac Cru Royals and really liked it.
