CAO maduro. If you'd loosen the rules, I'd definitely take the Perdomo Estate.

Well, if I can't pick the Estate line, then just flip a coin. All three lines produce good sticks.

Definately the CAO eXtreme Churchill or any other size for that matter unklebill. I was fortunate to win a 5-pack of these and the wrapper is just gorgeous to look at much less to smoke. A beautiful chocolate-brown wrapper that oozes with a slight oil and is aged to perfection. These are great to smoke right out of the box......good question! (finally).... :-) Brent

Very tough question...I like all of the CAO Anny lines..probably would be the CAO Anny Maduro corona or robusto...Second choice would be the Cameroon, followed by the eXtreme (which IMHO needs a little aging time to calm down)...If CAO was out of the equation, then definitely an Estevan Cruz over Perdomo

All three are good. In order I would pick CAO first, then Perdomo, then Estevan Cruz. Estevan Cruz is a great brand, but my heart is in Nicaragua. Nicaraguan tobacco is the finest available today, including Cuban. IMHO (do I hear the hoofbeats of the dead horse coming?????)

That's a tough one. Toss up between CAO L'Anniversaire either Cam. or Mad. any size (NOT the regular Gold line) or Estavan Cruz Maduro (NOT Natural). Although Perdomo makes the CAO L'Anni lines, I like them better than his lines, including the Perdomo2.
