Default Recommended Sumatras?

I just polished offf a Los Blancos Sumatra Robusto and thoroughly enjoyed the flavor.

I did a search on cigarsinternational.com for "sumatra" and wasn't happy with the results, so I am asking those in the know....

What cigars wrapped in a sumatra wrapper do you recommend?

I was just in Austin and picked up one of these at their store on 6th Street : http://www.livecigarrollers.com/cigars_texasselect.php

Bobalu Cigar Co.'s Texas Select...it was pretty darn tasty and my first Sumatran. The cigar itself had this intoxicatingly sweet smell to it. Not taste, but smell. I'm thinking I might have to order a few more now that I'm home.

Taboo has a Sumatra line. It's been a while since I've tried them, but they wern't too shabby if I recall correctly.

The only Sumatra I have smoked and enjoyed would be the Los Blancos. The Taboo one was okay but got a funky taste in the middle of it so I pitched it. but up there it was a decent smoke.
