newish smoker trying to find a stick

[rno]

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.

[RWhisenand]

If you are looking for creamy nutty, I would suggest a San Christobal Elegancia.

[cmitch]

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.

[oooo35980]

I'd pick up a Padron 1964, great flavors there.

This would be my suggestion too...Classico is another good Hemingway.

I can wrap a cigar up in some used gym socks and mail them to you for the special introductory offer price of $8.95 per cigar.

[gnbikes]

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

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.

[Mentallyrechartd]

Also welcome to the forum! A lot of great guys here with a ton of knowledge. And mind the slope you're sliding down, it's pretty slick!

Not a great example of brotherhood Adam even if he did spell a word wrong.

[RickT]

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!

[jjirons69]

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!

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).

Now this is helpful information :tu

And me,I'm a prick and I know it ;)

[smitty81]

I had a Macanudo the other day, it was smooth and creamy..................might be worth a try.

These are great suggestions! I would add the Padron x000 series as well.

[CasaDooley]

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

I never viewed your comment as "being a prick" Dave.

thank you for the suggestion Jamie it was perfect

i bought a Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 robusto and just got done smoking it !!WOW!! that was a step in the right direction i loved it id give it a 8 out of 10 i shared it with my mother who after smelling it had to try it,she is now a cigar smoker because of it :) i liked it so much i smoked it down to half an inch until i had to put it down because it was burning my lips.

i smoked my Padron 1964 Anniversary Corona after lunch it was good it was a interesting smoke but not really what i am looking for at this time

i also picked up a Arturo Fuente Hemingway Classic that i plan to smoke tomorrow

Looks like you just got that little nudge down the slope:r:r:r:r

[mtnman]

Just my $0.02... I agree with all the AF Hemingway comments. Those are great. For maduro, I keep coming back to the 601 blue. I have only been smoking about a stick per day this summer and the search to find the ones I like has been awesome. Thanks mostly to the guys in this forum for their reviews and opinions.

[Mr. Ed]

Hmmmm, good suggestions so far. Cabaiguan is another good one. Perdomo Lot 23 is a nice mild-medium cigar I think goes well with coffee.

[RWhisenand]

I second the Lot 23's, a good medium very tasty smoke.

[rno]

Arturo Fuente Hemingway Classic was pretty good i picked up a short story last night will smoke it today

[REALMCCOY]

Definitely anything Arturo Fuente. Natural, maduro, cameroon(which of course is what the entire Hemingway line is I'm pretty sure), even the sungrown which isn't MY favorite but still a good smoke. Oliva Connecticut and G Serie are good starter sticks I believe. Can't think of any other maduros though. I enjoy La Aroma De Cuba quite often, not positive its a maduro though.
