Never smoked Miami Blend, but thinking about reordering another box of Hybrid's. This time might try Robusto, last one was Churchill. Yesterday smoked last Maduro, after 7- month aging draw actually improved a little.

You remember Stoge, that conversation about Maduro, which I started long time ago? Those were not the same quality as Hybrid. First time I got them I had a horrible experience with draw. My mouth was dry and I end up with a huge headache. Well after that conversation I never touched them and let them seat in my humidor. After 7-8 month I did smoke them and they actually improved a little, but not enough that I would buy a box and enjoy smoking them. I rather pay a little more and get TTT Maduro, which I enjoy very much. Hybrid is completely different story, every time I used to light that Churchill size I smoked them till my fingers start burning. Thats how good they are. Maduro is a big disappointment.
I definately like the Hybrid alot more than the maduro, and the miami blend is amazing. I just looked at the prices at cigarsinternational and they went up like 20 bucks a box!

I know what you mean, its took a while for my Maduro Churchills to come around. The Hybrids are the bomb like you said, I always have a box of them around.

I like the hybrids better myself, but i did smoke a maduro churchill last week, that had over a year of age on them, and it was outstanding, with perfect draw and burn...
