Are you me?

Swap out an LP 9 for the Cabiguan and thats my top three right there

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

PAM 64 for me, especially the principe and coronas :dr

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

The Principes are incredible, no doubt. I like the Monarca better when there's time, they develop more and I get a lot more of that "incredibly good" last inch that's in a principe. I probably smoke more principes than monarcas, but I'd rather have a monarca. :)

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Exactly my feelings. Love the Monarcas, especially since you get a bit more wrapper flavor in em.

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Don't think I've ever had a monarca, guess I need to snag a couple soon.

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Same ring as the Principe, just longer, Brian. I think one is 4 1/2" and one is 6 1/2".

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

I stand corrected, I think I was thinking of the Exclusivos, not the principes.

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Ya still get more wrapper flavor from the monarca, it's longer and builds up more, right? :)

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

True, but I just consider that getting more cigar, since its the same RG, just longer, I tend to find it progresses roughly the same just the stages last longer.

And all this talk is reminding me I have a 64 Natural Imperial sittin in the travel humi. Now I'm startin to jones for it. :dr

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

im torn between the Camacho triple maduro or the Davidoff Maduro. <br> i think ill go with the Davidoff though. it has a bit more refined flavor and i find it a touch more approachable.


...save for the price.

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Oliva V 08
Tat Black PL
T-52 Toro or Torp

To me it has settled out to be more about wrappers than individual cigars:
CT > Nic (with occasional exception) > PA Broadleaf > everything else > San Andres

I know I'm in a small minority, but there are VERY few San Andres-wrapped maduro that I've ever enjoyed.

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Believe it or not...an old 1998 CAO Maduro Corona (red label). It had aged to perfection. AWESOME!

Other than that, I'm also a fan of the La Aurora Preferidos Maduro

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

How are these out of the store (not 14 years old haha)

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Camacho Triple Maduro, still one of my favorites.

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Ah my apologies, upon closer inspection of the band which I saved, it seems not to be the original 1998. It is however, the vintage CAO maduro from several years ago, not the newer CAO L'Anniversaire Maduro remake. I wish I had more details, but it was gifted! ;s

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Great choices here! I've got some great ideas for future selections.

Thanks, and by all means keep them coming...

No problem, thanks for the info and glad you enjoyed your smoke!

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

Padron 1964 exclusivo
Liga privada #9
and I belive le bijou 1922 is a maddy too right?

Re: Favorite maduro overall?
 

I personally love the L'Anniversaire Maddies. Great smokes at a good price. Nice and chocolatey. :dr Makes me hanker for one, but we don't carry them at work unfortunately.
