A few others you may like based on some of your previous choices:

The Oliva Master Blend III (robusto is my personal favorite as far as vitola goes). I never hear much about this cigar but I think it's fantastic. Another is the Arturo Fuente Hemingway Work of Art maduro. This cigar seems to depend on where you're located as far as availability goes. I've never had a problem getting them but for some they seem about as common as an eight eyed unicorn.

Either way it seems like you're on the right path. and I'm sure you've already heard it but: "Smoke what you like and you'll like what you smoke". Best of luck to you.

That's exactly what I've decided to do, it seems to be working great for the few trips I've made so far.

Excellent choices in beverage pairing!!!
Thanks, experimenting to try and pair the perfect cigar with the perfect drink has made everything even more interesting.

Thanks for the suggestions, and the last quote in your sentence hits the nail on the head. I've tried quite a few in so little time, but I keep coming back to the few that really impress me every time. I'm thinking about just buying a box of padrons anniversary and la aroma de cuba for now. That's a big investment for a beginner for me lol, but I like what I like!

You have some high end sticks there. Mostly Nic tabac, but some
Dominican.

Suggest: RyJ Reserve maduro with 1+yr age, CAO Brazilia, CAO Soprano,
Fuente WOAM (Work of Art maduro), Fuente Hemingway(natural and maduro),
Oliva Master Blends 3(tastes like Padron to me), most Pepins (Serie JJ maddie),
RP Olde World Reserve, Ashton San Cristobal (actually any Ashton).

These and the other suggestions should keep you busy for a while.
Enjoy the journey of discovery. Try a lot of different smokes. Remember
those that you like best.
