La Antiguadad (these are strong)

Great. That makes the Bijou a rarer smoke for me, cause I really only smoke them when I feel like getting slapped by nic.
I was kind of hoping nothing would be quite as strong as the Bijou. Might give them and the cedar sleeves a try anyway.

Thanks for the input.

I like most, but the La AntiDads and Bayous are pretty strong smokes...If I'm going to smoke something that powerful, I'll smoke a Joya Antano. Just agrees with me more, and less puking... ;)

I would consider myself a My Father Whore!
The only one I haven't smoked yet is the JJ (but I have one sitting in the humi).
The only one I didn't care for was the Tobac Baez. I think that's because I smoked it in my infancy (I'm a toddler now ;) ). Probably didn't allow it to rest and didn't know how to appreciate a milder cigar then.
If I had to give them an order of preference, it would go a little something like this...

Le Bijou
Jamie Garcia Reserva Especial
Blue label
El Centurion
Cuban Classic
Le Antiguidad
Flor de las Antillas
Any of the La Rebola blends
La Dueña
My Father CT (I have to revisit this)

There may be a few that I haven't tried, but I don't think it's many! Like the Cedros line that was mentioned.
I prefer anything from a petite Robusto to a toro, but I'm willing to try the smaller RG too (I'm sitting on a lancero that I'm dying to try, but want to give it the time & attention it deserves; @Cardinal )!

Having said you're on a tight budget, give the Old Henry's a try from Holts.

Thanks for the suggestion. Never heard of those. Well all this Pepin talk made me light a toro gordo blue label, and half way through I'm dizzy and might have to call it quits or slow way down. Looking for some sugar now. It's such a great cigar too. Maybe it's not the Bijou so much as these larger sizes I always wind up with.

I absolutely love the Flor de las Antillas! But the le Bijou is always a good choice too. :yes!:
