What is a good cigar that is reasonable price (<$10 a cigar) and widely available.  Not a huge selection in town and not interested in fussing.

Thanks in Advance.

Macanudo is a fairly cheap and accessible brand. They are pretty good for the cost.
Arturo Fuente is another one that is pretty good, but can be hard to find.

it all depends on what flavor you are going for and what have you. If you are ever in Wichita go to Old Town Cigars. They are very knowledgeable and have a great house cigar that will knock you on your ass.

I pretty much like a rich taste.

I like the taste of tobacco and generally hate "light" cigs, filters and any flavored or plastic tipped cigars.

For cigs in the past I smoked Kamel Reds, Lucky Filters or Unfiltered, Handrolled (when my roomates hippie gf was in town and would roll them) or Marlboro 27's.

For cigars have usually just had a cohiba in foreign lands.  Generally very enjoyable, but pricey.  Heard from some old dude smoking down there that most of the good cuban families are in the Dominican now anyways and that Cubans are generally overpriced.

The last Cuban I had was like $28 which was kind of ridic, but also tasted fantastic.

Problem is, no 'cigar store.'  The place in the mall is half likely to have a teeny bopper shart pr0n jailbait lip 'n nip ring in a Slipknot shirt working as a d00d that knows frack all about ceee-garzz.

lol. yes. although that asian dude is one of my best friends. if you get to know him he isn't a douche. but he definitely is. it's his type of humor. and the band was not that good. did you see us play, or know somebody in it?

It is a tragedy because now, we have at least an extra month without Cat football until next year. I hate wasting my life away but I can hardly wait until next year.

This is the only kind that I put in my humidor.  Not too pricey either.  Churchills is the one to go with.  If you are ever in KC, try going to Diebels on the plaza.  Good selection and knowledgeable staff.
