Curly Head Deluxe...

Awwh crap.... I just noticed you asked about Curly Head Deluxe, which is the long filler cheapie from Fuente.

What I recall is that they were certainly better than the short fill Curly Heads, kind of had a bit of that "Fuente flavor", certainly no 858 or "green band" (Cuban Corona, Chateau, Exquisito, etc) Fuente though. In the end though, I was disappointed because for 2/3 the cost of the 858 or "green band", they were less than half the cigar. There was a huge difference between those two levels.

So, for the money, I'd still go with the JR Ultimates, or step up to the other Fuentes. I guess it's all about what you like, I don't smoke just to smoke, I'm after flavor and if I wanted a bargain, the Exquisitos at $2/stick or the Ultimates Habanitos at $1.40/cigar are both insane little flavor bombs.
