Maybe Ashton VSG. No twang, but it's always been a wonderful experience.

I hate to say at is, as its counterpart is probably cheaper but a touch tougher to get, but the tatuaje noellas smacked of Monte flavor, just with more strength and pepper, but in my limited experience with CC's, it was close.

a few years ago when I was smoking CCs exclusively, the only thing that seemed to even come close were the Bobalu '91 Dominican coronas.

Monte Cristo vintage platinum...not that they smoke the same but smell pre-lit very similar.

I really like the Guapos but I think they smoke soooo much stronger than any cuban I have had.

Two come to mind for me. Reserva Mira Flor and Partagas 160 Sig Series. One affordable, one not so much.

this is a stretch, but just maybe a tat especiales. tastes to me like a very fresh havana. maybe.

I agree, it must be about 4months since I've had one, but I remember thinking that I couldn't believe how this is not illegal.
