Go to Cigar

I like a few of the Punches:

Grand Puro (the one in the tube seems better for some reason)
Punch Royal Coronation
Rare Corojo...

I concur with Volt Both a real good smoke and a fav in my Humies. . . The RP sungrown is another nice addition - and for my money anything Sancho panza. . . but that's just me.
 
My "go-to" for a long time was the Punch Elite. I could get one for under $4.00 anywhere. I've moved past that now, but I have yet to have something disappointing in the punch line.
 
I will have to pick up some of those RP 92 seconds!

My go to has to be a Partagas Black, great smoke for the price on Cbid.

:tpd: Too many out there to have a "go-to". I like variety so I try not to smoke the same cigar within two weeks of each other.

Yippers.....no such thing for me.....whatever I reach for. :ss

Here's been my 'goto' the past week:

Punch Champion
RyJ Viejo
Camacho Corojo
Padilla Hybrid
Montecristo Afrique
Pepin Black
 
Whatever my hand pulls out of the humidor. It differs for the situation: golf course - something sturdy with lots of smoke; fireplace - something savory with lots of taste; herf - something new that I've never had (getting harder to find those the further down the slope I get; shower - something water-resistant :ss
 
A punch was actually my first cigar. It was decent and it got me hooked. Just bought a rare corojo last night. Looking forward to smokin that sucker!

Same here. Some unsatisfactory gas-station cigars last Friday night shared with my buddies led me to resolve to finally try a good cigar and see what all the fuss is about. Since I was off Monday I went by the local B&M and walked through their humidor and settled on the Punch Royal Coronation maduro (because I recognized the name Punch from a brief online research Sunday night).

I think I got lucky with my choice. I've read through some posts here of good cigars and bad experiences so in retrospect it was a total shot in the dark just picking it by name recognition. But my luck held and it was everything I thought smoking a cigar should be. Those of you who've smoked more expensive/better cigars may chuckle a bit but for me that was pure smoker's heaven. Over an hour of smooth, medium flavor with no bitterness or off-putting odors, some good company, good conversation, meeting new people and soft, comfortable chairs in a dark-lit tobacco shop - instantly hooked! :ss

So now my pipes may start gathering dust, I fear. A box of Punch Royal Coronations is wending its way through UPS as I type!

Anybody else a fan of this cigar? I would really like some other opinions on this one!

For me...if it says "Tatuaje" on the band...I feel safe. However, as of this last week, my go to would be a Punch, in fact Addiction all ready mentioned which...the Punch Royal Selection # 12...I too am near the end of my stash....so, back to my other Go-To....Illusione ~4/2g~
 
Punch London Club (Maduro or Natural) or Indian Tabac Super Fuerte Robustos (once again Natural or Maduro).

Which I pick depends on how long I have to smoke and where I am.
