I wanted to get everyone's recommendation on the type of cigar I'm looking for. I like very aromatic and super smooth cigars. So far from all the stogies I've had, the Punch Maduro Rothschild and RP Sun Grown fit the bill. I also liked the La Gloria Cubana and Partagas Black.
I want to know what else can I try that is similar to these and just as good if not better. So the cigar would have to be aromatic, flavorful and super smooth. I don't like super strong cigars like the Camacho's, or Corojo wrapper cigars. Nothing to strong or spicy.
Thanks guys. I have been meaning to try the hemmingways, they're sold out everywhere though. Anyway, that will definitly be on my list. Any other ones I should look into? What do you guys think of the Ashton VSG?
in addition try Padron. any of the 1000 series and if possible treat yourself to the anniversary series 64 or 26.
"Cuban seed tobaccos grown in Nicaragua and Cuba. The wrapper would be from Cuba. The binder leaves would be from Nicaragua. For the ligero tobacco in the filler, he would use two types, one from Esteli and the other from Jalapa in Nicaragua. The other filler components, seco and viso, would come from Cuba, the former from Villa Clara, the latter from Pinar del Rio. That Cigar, he says with pride, would score 100 points." -Don Pepin Garcia

I gave a hemingway signature to a friend the other day, I forgot to ask him if he enjoyed it.
I have my first hemingway work of art maduro waiting for me in my humidor, I got it a few months ago. I hope its all people say.
KBani, I'm kind of confused because you say you don't want anything strong but I thought the RP Sun Grown was a pretty strong cigar. The VSG has some strength on it as well, but definitely balanced with some great flavor.
My only advice...TRY EVERYTHING!
I just like cigars, is that ok?

Padron anniverary series maduro. Can't go wrong there. VSGs are incredible cigars but might not line up with what you are looking for. Give the Ashton Aged Maduro a shot...
