I started this journey of cigars with non-Cubans some 11 years ago with a lot of help from quite a few members here. Soon I moved into Cubans and haven't really gone back. These days getting an everyday reasonably priced yet tasty smoke from Cuba seems to be getting tougher. I find it difficult at times to burn cigars in my stock while sitting at home by myself knowing how much it is going up in smoke. Don't get me wrong, they will all go at some point but I would like one I can smoke and if I can't finish I don't need to think about it.

I imagine a few things have changed in the last 11 years in the NC world and hope I can get some advice from you guys.

I really enjoy a mild-medium bodied cigar. HdM, QdO, MC are probably my favorites besides the premium Cohiba and Trinidad. Any NC that are close to this flavor profile? Most important is the strength. I do not enjoy spice or too full bodied.

I also don't know the best places to order NC from any more so would appreciate advice on that too. Pretty sure asking this is allowed but please let me know moderators if not!

Thanks!
