Forgot about those Greg, definitely the Virtuoso.

Also La Gloria Cubano Serie R maduro would work. I prefer the #4.

Based on the mild to med and chocolate/cocao tones your looking for in no particular order and not saying they are all easy to find.

1. ERDM Choix (cc)
2. Oliva O Bold/Clasic maduros (blue bands, discontinued)
3. Padilla Burberry (Artisan) (hard to get/find but exactly what your describing)
4. Sol Cubano Artisan - close match
5. Taboo Twist
6. RP Sumatra (discontinued but can still be found in some B&Ms)
7. Oliva G Maduro
8. Oynx Reserve (possibly)

Unfortuantly I have a bad habit for falling for discontinued cigars, but damn they are tasty. I would also check out Don Fernando's (Ferd) blog on cigar reviews. Don has a great affinity for pulling out the cacao flavors. I do not have his blog site to pass on though.

Thanks Greg

I will have to try a few

BTW, I am leaving this weekend for Ft Jackson and then on to Hawaii. Probably won't be back in the area for quite some time. Thanks again for the great Bomb and for an excellent B&M!

Haven't had most of those, but like I said, the Choix is outstanding to me. If I could only smoke 1 cigar, I could easily live with that one. And very affordable.

I picked up some Arganese Maduros this fall, they fall into that nice choclate/cocoa/coffee taste spectrum, give them a try.

Otherwise, those Oliva G's are excellent, especially at the that price point.

Give the Arturo Fuente Chateau line a go , sun-grown wrapper is the spicier of the line so you'll want to stay with the natural or the maddie . Also Oliva has some good cigars .
