I have been smoking a lot of Vegas Robaina famosos, but I have never tried another hermoso cigar. I love the size, the gauge beeing slightly thinner than the robusto. According to my limited experience this is not a very common size. I would be glad to hear your views on other cigars in this size.

All the best from Norway

Personally I love the ERdM choix supreme, beautifully complex light bodied cigar. A sweet milky coffee flavour, alongside floral and light cedar aromas. A kind of lovely cross between a Rafael Gonzalez and the Hoyo Epicures. (for me at least).

H. Upmann Connaisseur #1 is light to medium body cigar with herbal flavours when it is aged a couple of years.

I picked up a box of '99 Choix Supreme in Gibraltar last week, oddly labelled "Choix Suprema" on the sides of the box. The darkest Choix Supremes I've ever seen, with an aroma of Bovril, of all things, out of the box.
Weird, so I had to get them.

That's Hermoso No.4 you're talking about.
I can add RyJ Exhibicion No.4. Wood, vanilla, some spice and floral tones at times.
