If you spend $6+ per cigar you pretty much can't go wrong. At that price, it's not a matter of quality, but personal taste. My personal favorites are Monte Cristo Presidente (maduro wrapper), anything by Arturo Fuente (tend to be overpriced though), anything by Punch (for dark leaf), anything by Macanudo (for natural leaf).

If you shop around and buy by the box, you shouldn't have to spend more than $3-$5 per cigar. Check online too.

Don't get the $5 Cohibas (Dominican, of course)!

Go to a cigar shop and see if they have the glass tubed Cohibas, the run around $10-$12 each, but look like they cost a lot more.

You could also check out the Olivia line (also called "O"). They run between $7-$12 each and they are fantastic.

these are all great posts. Fuente Opus X I think from a marketing and style perspective makes the biggest hit.

If I were not at work, I would love to light up right now.

I concur, you have have very good taste Victor. You may also want to add Partagas and Romeo & Julietta to this list.
