Cigars - What do you like?

Having really started to get into cigars over the last couple of years, I was wondering...

What brand(s) of cigars do you like?
What cheap cigars have you found that are really not that bad?
What big name cigars did you find that you would avoid again in the future?

Tonight I had the chance to smoke a Rocky Patel Renaissance on my patio while watching some of the UConn/Arizona game (while flipping to TVG every so often)... medium bodied, wasn't impressed by the first third of it, but it did start to grow on me from there...

A few friends had recommended Acids or Backwoods as a good quick smoke (when you don't have 45-60 minutes to give for a cigar (morning commute is about half an hour).

Any good 'quick' smokes?

Prob one of best value cigars out there imo, agree Hamil, good call.

Churchill's much better than cohiba's too at top end of the chain, my choice going on 20 years now.
