Depending on how fast you smoke it, any cigar can be strong. To me, strong is nicotine content and how fast it gets into your system. Srong smokes (that is, not smoking them like a lab chimp) are Antano 1970, El Rico Habano Club Maduro, La Flor Dominicana Dbbl Ligero maduro, Face-Off La Flor by Camacho, and maybe a few more my minds eye can't see right now. These smokes pack a wallup. I have a few Antanos that are almost 9months old and they are still high in nicotine content yet extremely flavorful at this stage. IMHO these "strong" smokes are some of the best to put to rest for a few years. They should be pretty incredible in body by then.
