I snagged a 5er of these from cbid, letting them rest a bit before I smoke one. I had read that the maduro and connie were very bland, but I may try some after a few of the comments in this thread.

The Maduro and Connie are fairly bland and EXTREMELY mild, but they are very consistent, smooth, fairly creamy, and a no-bother smoke. Don't expect normal maduro, full-on sweetness but for the price point I still think it's worth it. I've been waiting to see a sampler w/ all three instead of buying just Intenso but I haven't seen one yet.

Do the Intenso have a decent kick to 'em?
