To me the La Armoma, Tatuaje, Last Call, Don Lino, Undercrowns are wroth smoking. The uzi is alright but that size is junk. Don Diego is sub par and punch is generic. Not familiar with a Nat Cicco. At the price per stick its not a bad deal but I would not expect to be wowed.

think I could do little better for $62. might not be able to put together 12 smokes for that price , maybe 8 or so that would be more overall quality.

Smoke Inn. Great selection and they have a Cigar of the Month club and a connoisseurs club and frequently offer specials for regulars

The selection seems good for the price, it just a matter of trying them for the first time or not. If you're trying to get a specific cigar, you can do a little better elsewhere, but if you havent had any of them and want to try them it's a good deal.

I'd pass on the sampler.

Not a bad sampler. There are some questionable cigars to fill it out. Overall, for the price, you’ll get some decent (not great) cigars and some so-so. The iffy cigars might be fine, in which case it is a pretty good deal. If they are crap, I think you still have an OK deal, but not amazing.

General consensus across the forums I posted this on is at best that I could do better for the money building my own selection, so I'm gonna pass and just do some in depth reading of all the threads of what nc's people are smoking.

Have been smoking only cc's for a bit over a year, so I'm a little out of touch with nc's, and the couple i tried recently that I used to love, just didn't do anything for me, so it seems my tastes have changed so was just leery of buying a bunch of old favorites and ending up being disappointed with them

I'd be down for a trade. I have the Last Call and MUWAT from that sampler. I could throw in a Tatuaje Black (petite robusto) as an intro, and it's one of my favorites. May have a LADC and a Tatuaje Havana - I'll have to dig. Got 2-3 different NC Punchs, too.

List off other brands and specific sticks you're interested in, and list possible trade sticks of yours. I'd be interested in a CC or two, if the price points match and you're willing.

Have a potential order lined up and would love some opinions on it.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210430/caa4460c2a098917fb1aa9dd1e5e2284.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210430/710d1213fde7672e9d7dd7d2405ced32.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210430/001e9227cd48bacfe71d0e93bb02ffe6.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210430/167fe347933f7ecf8222a218319324d1.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210430/17cf4647e7382e21d14c6169206d5637.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210430/ec7c02786b026bf3c405468979f80428.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210430/056247762dc596df8b88ff2c6b80b0e7.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210430/fa8766b36bbfa81bdd6ce24d89f6b164.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20210430/16469d0e4baf293ffcb532af31ab146d.jpg

I'd say the MF, Tat, L'At, AFs, and Padrons are solid picks. Maybe the Aging Room, but can't remember if I had the Maduro - the Original was a favorite for awhile. Haven't explored Ashton or the Vs.

Ended up trimming my order to what I think I will like the most , and to cut the cost down.

In my opinion (I don't know shit from apple butter) everyone has different tastes. Just jump on what you want. It's a journey, not a jog. Best
