I am a relatively new Cigar smoker. Tokk it up while playing golf. Now I can't go a round without smoking a couple. Starting to enjoy at home also.

I find I like a Mild- Mid taste. Any advice on some good brands in the mid price range? Any reviews on Santa Rosa Regulares Maduro?

Thanks

Try the 5 Vegas, usually a good deal to be found.

I know there will be opinions to the contrary, but I really like the Macanudo Maduros for genuine mildness, no day long after taste.

Try an ashton aged maddie number 10 is great dont pay over 7.00 a stick they come up here ever so often. When i first started they were what hooked me on cigars, mild and still good enought to hang with the big boys

OH ALSO Fonseca is a hella good smoke for the price and mild-mid STAY AWAY FROM LONEWOLF EVEN IF THEY PAY YOU TO SMOKE THEM!!

Mild smokes? Believe it or not the Bucanero Classico natural will give you the mild body with a nice creamy smoke.

Well I know I will get blasted for this, but Macanudo and Don Diego set the standard for "mild" smokes! Since I am more into full, robust cigars this is not recent experience talking! I used to smoke them along with Temple Hall if I wanted mild (ugh) cigars!

PS I do not consider the 5 (cinco) Vegas a mild smoke, but a medium smoke!

uncleb, I recently purchased a 5 pack of the Santa Rosa Regulares Maduro here. I typically do not like honduran cigars. I found these to have a good amount of complex flavor, but were a little bit harsh, I'm gonna let the remaining four nap for a while.

oh, I would also highly recomend the ashton cabinets and padron maduros for a mild yet satisfying smoke, the ashtons are a little pricey though.
