Once you leave the Criollo wrapper and get into Maduro, you DO notice a flavor change and I was happy to nub it. Smoke one on an empty stomach, let me know how mild it is. Had it been mild, I'd have tossed it pretty early (had it after a meal).

If there is one negative there, it is the slight underfill, which leads to ash breaking off at about 2/3 of an inch (even though there is a solid feel to the cigar?).

I hate when that happens. My experience easily gained me 2"+ on ash length. This was simply my own personal experience though.

the criollo is the maduro.
and a cigar doesn't change it's strength because your stomach is empty or full.
