Ah, the isla del sol... My suggestion, if you enjoy the taste and aroma of burning tires and midget taint so much, is that you visit a circus in Kentucky... Better but similar experience... The whole state smells like burning tires and the midget taint under the big top really infiltrates your olfactory's...

Try the CI Legends by Drew Estate (formerly known as the "Copper Label" back when the Legends line had differently-colored bands).

They have a hazelnut and amaretto sort of flavor. Heavier and better filled, also better constructed and has better flavor than Isla Del Sol.

Try them before the FDA bans them, along with all other flavored cigars (including Isla Del Sol), which is probably coming very soon.

Ace,

The JAVA maduro, by Drew estate, is the way to go.

Pricey, but for the type of cigar you are asking about, it's the best.

Well if your going to continue the flavored/infused cigar route, try the Naturals by Drew Estate as well as the Sweet Jane.

Ok, I know what forum not use from now on. Thought if I asked a question on a cigar forum I would get responses that would help. Apparently I was wrong.

Thanks for nothing.
