newish smoker trying to find a stick
i have been smoking cigars for a few years not allot maybe 7 or 8 a year until about 2 weeks ago i got into it allot more i got a humidor and have been picking up cigars at my local smokes shop but it seems like every thing i smoke taste the same for the most part just allot of pepper and a general "cigar flavor" for example i do not really care for the flavor of romeo y julieta 1875 rothchilde that type of burning pepper flavor kills it for me.
i find my self liking maduros more i had a cao maduro that i kinda liked a few days back that i got in a grab bag but my smokeshop dose not carry them anymore , today i smoked a davidoff millenium blend petit corona it wasent bad but was not what i thought it would be or really what i was looking for , a few hours ago i had a j. fuego gran reserva corojo #1 it started to taste better to me half way through but still not what id say i really enjoy now im smoking a montecristo vintage 1999 im about a inch and a half down and it just has a generic cigar flavor to me i am going to twoguys tomorrow i have $40 to spend im looking for a cigar that has a rich nutty flavor or creamy and sweat , chocolaty any or all of those or even just something smooth or mellow that has no pepper in it that taste really good i have no problem spend 10 to 15 bucks on a cigar but id also wouldn't mind a recommendation for a few cheap sticks any feedback would be really appreciated sorry if my post is all over the place and sucks this is my first time :sh |

If they have them I would suggest Tatuaje Corona Extra. Good flavor and not boring.

Re: newish smoker trying to find a stick
If you are looking for creamy nutty, I would suggest a San Christobal Elegancia.
|
Re: newish smoker trying to find a stick
If you're looking for mild and sweet, the Baccarrat would fit. For a great smooth cigar, I would suggest the Arturo Fuente Hemingways. Maybe a short story or best seller to try.

Re: newish smoker trying to find a stick
I'd pick up a Padron 1964, great flavors there.

Nat Sherman Host series. Sweet tip, creamy and very smooth.

Re: newish smoker trying to find a stick
The Undercrowns are great and won't break the bank. A little spicy, but can get pretty sweet and a little nutty. Definitely creamy smoke. I will also heartily second the Arturo fuente Hemingway.

Re: newish smoker trying to find a stick
Based on the description of the flavor profile you are looking for, I would recommend any of the Padron sticks. To me, they lack the pepper blast that I also do not care for. Have fun in the quest!

Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 or 1992 are on the maduro side, are sweet and chocolatey, and don't have the pepper blasts.

You're right Dave, it was late, I was tired... FREE gym sock sweat infused cigars! ;s On a serious note, when I hear "nutty" & "creamy" together for a cigar, the Avo XO (orange band / tubes) immediately comes to mind. Those cigars are a progression of distinct nutty flavor changes as they burn down. If you are looking for creamier, go with the Intermezzo (robusto), nuttier, the Maestro (churchill). |

Re: newish smoker trying to find a stick
A lot of great replies so far, another one I would add for mild, creamy and a touch of sweet is the Diamondback. I would also ask for suggestions based on your criteria from the folks at TwoGuys, I'm sure they could point you in the right direction.:D
