NCs that taste like CCs?

I get some CC flavor out of Cabaiguans. Those are probably the closest I have found to the cuban flavor.

I have HEARD:

1) Tatuajes can taste like a cuban
2) Reserva Miraflors can taste like a cuban
3) Davidoffs can taste like a cuban
4) OpusX can be as complex as a cuban, haven't heard that they taste like one though

That's what I have heard. Can't substantiate any of these reliably though.

Cheers

I'd like to add Oliva V Lanceros have a similar profile to some CCs....dont forget to nose exhale and you will sense what I mean.

I'll have to try another one of these over the weekend. I don't remember thinking "tastes Cuban" the first time but I love this size.

A few years ago I had enough CCs stored up to pretty much smoke them exclusively. The only NC I would still reach for were the Bobalu '91 Dominicans. Again, this was maybe 3 years ago but they tasted great back then.

I'll second the

La Riqueza

No, you are not.
