EDIT: Unfortunately the melanios are no longer listed in this deal, they must have sold out. There are still some quality sticks in this deal but not as good of a bargain as before.
ORIGINAL POST:
CigarPage is currently running a deal on select cigar five packs. The site lists the regular, albeit still discounted prices for each; however, if you add 4 or more to your cart they all drop to $17.49 each. There are some good and not so good deals but the big one imo is the five packs of Oliva Melanio robusto. If all you bought was 4 of the five packs, that's 20 Melanio for $69.96+tax.
You won't get the boxes as they will come in cello wrapped five packs but that's the equivalent of two boxes for less than many online shops sell a single box. Plus much less than they retail in any B&M.
Some variation of this deal happens every few months and I try to stock up each time.

The only problem with first timers buying these would be setting the bar so high. In my opinion you almost need to smoke some really garbage cigars, before you can truly start appreciating great cigars like these Melanio's.
I'm personally not a fan of most Connecticut cigars, because in general they just seem too light, and just don't seem to have much flavor but I have smoked some really good Connecticut's in the past. So if you're after a mild smoke, maybe start looking at some different Connecticut's. one of the recent connecticuts that I tried and liked was the Liga Undercrown shade, but its also considered a Medium flavored cigar which is probably the reason I liked it. And of course it's not one of the cigars available in this deal.
At the other end of the spectrum, in the full flavor category. Just about the strongest flavored cigar that I've enjoyed in the past, the Joya de Nicaragua Antano is pretty good, but it packs a punch. The antano is also no where near, the level of good smoking consistency of these Melanio's.

Mild new world cigars are terrible. Slowly move towards medium to medium full by smoking after a big meal, and taking your time. After you've gotten used to cigars and still want the occasional smoke in the morning with your coffee..hate to say it but cubans are the only mild cigars I've enjoyed. They're pretty much my go to for the occassional early morning weekemd smokes.
