Mild to Medium Maduros

Boobar · 07-18-2009, 09:22 AM

I have kind of back tracked a bit in that I am leaning more towards mild to medium cigars. I started out smoking mostly fuller bodied cigars but it seems that I am just leaning the other way now.

What do you guys and gals smoke when you reach for a mild to medium maduro?

Perdomo Slow-Aged Lot 826 in Maduro are a favorite of mine. They're my go-to cigar for golf. Plus they're cheap enough that I don't mind sharing when I hear, "That smells great! Got another one of those?"

Padron Londres Maduros, Perdomo Lot 23 Maduro

Starscream · 07-18-2009, 09:54 AM

I really like the Puros Indios Viejo maduro....

There are some great deals out there.

kelmac07 · 07-18-2009, 10:09 AM

Perdomo Lot 23 maduros and Sancho Panza Double maduros are nice mild to medium sticks.

Casa Torano Maduro, Chateau Real from Drew Estaste, Fuente Chateau and 858, Isla de Cuba, RyJ Reserve and Vintage, Onyx, Macanudo and Gispert's are a few.

Although the ERDM Reserva Salado is rated medium/full, I find its sweeter maduro wrapper and well-balanced blending make it taste a lot milder than it actually may be. Often you won't notice how strong it is, until you turn your head - then BOOM!

I tend to judge cigar strength by the weather too - if you can smoke it in comfort when it's 90+ degrees, then it's not too strong.

Sol Cubano by Oliva Maduro This is the new blend, and the only one I tried. The old blend is referred to as Sol Cubano Maduro. The new blend is very nice and affordable at C bid.

TheBeard · 07-18-2009, 01:48 PM

I haven't had many maduros, but the Tatuaje Reserva SW Maduro is probably more towards medium-bodied. It's got full flavor, but it's not overwhelming.

Tampa Sweetheart maduros. Absolutely fabulous, mellow, tasty, and mild.
Esteban Carrera Maduros. Nestor Maduros.
There's tons.
But I think the cream of the mild to mediums are Tampa Sweethearts.
I smoke a zillion Sancho Panza Double Maduros, and I think they're real mild, but everyone says they're strong. All I know is that they're friggin awesome.

Emjaysmash · 07-18-2009, 02:22 PM

NUB MAduros, as well. Nice sweet mild body

ZenSilk · 07-18-2009, 02:59 PM

Definitely Padron Londres!

Sancho Panza maduros are pretty mellow too.

smokin5 · 07-18-2009, 06:32 PM

Diablos are a nice medium-strength smoke, but you'd better hurry, as they're not making anymore.
Cigars Int'l Legends by Perdomo is another tasty medium.
Nestor Reserve Maduros fit the bill, also.
And you might consider the Romeo y Julieta Vintage Maduros.

Sancho Panza DM
Padron Londres
Party Black

Those are my top 3

Give a Gurkha doble maduro a try. I know Gurkha gets a bad rap (mostly justified), but this one is well made and right between mild and medium with some good flavor.
