AF Anejo Cameroon Shark

I believe he was looking for something CHEAPER than the DC. Had an Anejo about an hour ago though, superb smoke.

The only comparable alternative I can think of is Ashton Heritage Puro Sol, which unfortunately costs about the same as the DC and -- surprise -- is made by Fuente. You could also try any of the Cameroon wrapped cigars in the regular Fuente line, but they're not like DC.

Here are three longshots:

Oliva Serie G, which also has a Cameroon wrapper and has similar body if not flavor. About $3-$5 and a great cigar in its own right.

The now-discontinued Peterson line. About $60 a box at Holt's and very good for the money.

H. Upmann Vintage Cameroon, about $5-$6.

thanks all -

i think i got a bead on some decent daily smokes...

like to be able to save these last 10 don carlos i have for when i go on vacation - $9.00 a throw every day is a bit steep.

This might not be the right place to post this, but i have some Ashton Heritage Puro Sol Belicosos that i want to move (i have too many)

If you want them cheap, email me (my addy is in my profile)
