That counts Cabaiguan & Oliva use those too

But upon further review, it looks like some of the HdM Excalibur series uses Ecuadorian Sumatra, so I'd have to narrow my choice to the Excalibur Epicure

I enjoy a smoke with coffee in the morning and smoke quite a few connies. If I'm feeling spendy the Davidoff's are at the top of my pile, followed by the Avo XO. I really enjoy the woody profiles of those. I'd rate the 5 Vegas Gold over the CAO Gold, but not in the nugget size. It loses something in the pc size. The Oliva is great, as well as the Perdomo Champagne, both of those are quite flavorful. I'd also throw the Graycliff G2 in there but I find them a little hit and miss. Some are a bit too grassy for me, others are in balance and a real treat.
While not a connie, the Partagas Mille Fleur is also a great smoke to have in the morning.

I am really looking forward to the (upcoming) EPC Connecticut coming out at the show this year...I hope it is good
