Default Re: Cabaiguan question

Both cigars have the same filler IIRC, but the Guapos line has a sungrown wrapper and the regular line has an Ecuadorian-grown shade wrapper.


The Guapos line will have more spice in the mouth, but it overshadows the subtle flavors of the filler mix sometimes. The Robusto Extra will be smoother on the mouth, but you will find more subtle spice and peppery complexities on the aftertaste.


Overall, I like both, but I'm most partial to the Guapos Guapos size (largest) and the Cabaiguan Corona Extra size. To me, those are the two that offer the most flavor and allow for you to experience the difference the wrapper has on the smoke.
