Default NCs that taste like NCs?

I was looking for a little help here... Are there any NC's that taste like NC's? I really am looking for a smoke that will have me saying "Wow, this is really the stereotypical NC flavor!" Lot's of rollers are trying to blend "cubanesque" sticks, F that... I want a straight up modern day NC tasting NC...

Try El Producto or Muriel. I understand they are the closest one can come to the NC experience without going to Notcuba.

Cremosa Cubana is the "classic" NC. You wont be thinking anything else when smoking one of these babies!

Black & Mild or White Owl Grape.....you probably won't find these flavors in any CCs thus these must be NC flavors.
