My girlfriend really likes the cigars with sweetened caps, other than the gas station cheapies. Can anyone list some of these for me? I don't even know how to search for them or the names of any of em.. yeah, I'm clueless.

For traditional (ie: not infused or flavored), besides the Baccarat that Bob mentioned, the Professor Sila from Cigars International is another mild cigar with a sweetened cap.

For infused or flavored cigars you have a slew of offerings from Drew Estate: Java, Tabak Especial, Isla del Sol, some of the ACID cigars. The CAO Flavors line from CAO.

A number of the Drew Estate Natural line cigars also have sweetened tips.

Drew Estate Dirt Torpedo or English could also be a good fit for her.

Another vote for the Drew Estate line. The Java maduro is delicious and the Blondie is a very popular Acid choice. The Kuba Kuba is slightly larger than the Blondie and very popular as well.

My vote goes to Baccarat, they have a sweetened tip but they aren't so infused that you can't stand to be in the same room with someone smoking one.

CAO Flavors is what my girl likes the most. She also loves the ACID Blondie and the Macabi Cherry.

Apparently I smoke like a girl, so I'll chime in (mostly to repeat and summarize what others have said).

Sweet:
- Baccarat: Sweet, mild, a good baseline.
- Baccarat Maduro: Similar to some of the Drew Naturals.
- Diamondback: Similar to Baccarat.
- Professor Sila: CI exclusive, similar to Baccarat, though slightly sour aftertaste.
- Pai Gow: Famour Smokes exclusive, very similar to Pro. Sila including aftertaste.
- Flor de Oliva Natural: Less sweet on the tip and more sweet in the tobacco... very pipey, one of my favorites and very reasonably priced.
- Naturals by Drew: Aromatic and pipey, I like Dirt, Dirt Torpedo, Clean Robusto, didn't like Root or Root Deluxe which were not sweet tip.
- Pirata Piquenos: Rough rolled, sweet tip, good 20-30 min smokes in tins of 8.

Infused:
- Acid: Lots of different profiles and plenty written about each. Blondie Belicoso is my favorite so far. Didn't care for Madre.
- Java: Coffee infused, slightly sweetened, really liked the mint.
- Tabak Especial: Similar to Java. The few I've had have been somewhat loosely rolled.
- Isla del Sol: Another coffee infused from Drew, but lower quality overall than Java and Tabak.
- Oliveros Gold Cognac- EXTREMELY strong cognac infusion.

Flavored:
- Erin Go Braugh: Mild, slight Irish Creme flavor and sweetness.
- CAO Flavors: Strong flavoring that can sour towards the end. Eileen's Dream is a favorite of mine.
- Cuban Honeys: Mild, medium sweetness and flavoring.
- Oliveros Platinum Sweet: Medium body box-press, syrupy sweetness.
