thank you for the suggestion Jamie it was perfect

i bought a Rocky Patel Vintage 1990 robusto and just got done smoking it !!WOW!! that was a step in the right direction i loved it id give it a 8 out of 10 i shared it with my mother who after smelling it had to try it,she is now a cigar smoker because of it :-) i liked it so much i smoked it down to half an inch until i had to put it down because it was burning my lips.

i smoked my Padron 1964 Anniversary Corona after lunch it was good it was a interesting smoke but not really what i am looking for at this time

i also picked up a Arturo Fuente Hemingway Classic that i plan to smoke tomorrow

Looks like you just got that little nudge down the slope:-):-):-):-)

Just my $0.02... I agree with all the AF Hemingway comments. Those are great. For maduro, I keep coming back to the 601 blue. I have only been smoking about a stick per day this summer and the search to find the ones I like has been awesome. Thanks mostly to the guys in this forum for their reviews and opinions.

Hmmmm, good suggestions so far. Cabaiguan is another good one. Perdomo Lot 23 is a nice mild-medium cigar I think goes well with coffee.

I second the Lot 23's, a good medium very tasty smoke.

Arturo Fuente Hemingway Classic was pretty good i picked up a short story last night will smoke it today

Definitely anything Arturo Fuente. Natural, maduro, cameroon(which of course is what the entire Hemingway line is I'm pretty sure), even the sungrown which isn't MY favorite but still a good smoke. Oliva Connecticut and G Serie are good starter sticks I believe. Can't think of any other maduros though. I enjoy La Aroma De Cuba quite often, not positive its a maduro though.
