Question
I am looking for a cigar similar to the butera dorado 652, but less expensive. Do you have any suggestions?
Thanks
Dave

Answer
Dave,

Royal Butera is a Connecticut Shade wrapped, Dominican filler, medium-bodied cigar. One of my favorites with similar tobaccos and great construction is Romeo Y Julieta Reserva Real, and the 6" x 50 Toro retails for about $5 - how does that sound?

Expertise

I'm a fourth generation cigar maker and have spent 25+ years operating our factory as well as a mail order cigar company. I belong to cigar manufacturers associations as well as retail cigar associations so I'm usually up to date with current events relating to cigars. I've smoked the majority of brands on the market and would be happy to share my opinions of them with you. Since I live in the U.S. I have very little experience with Cuban cigars, but other than that I know a least a little bit about almost every brand of cigars on the market.

Experience

In addition to growing up in and now managing our cigar factory for 25+ years, I've spent time in many factories in Honduras, Nicaragua, The Dominican Republic and Mexico. BR>
