In the short time I have been smoking sticks I have found that I like mild-meduim to meduim bodied cigars. So far I am a Fuente whore, cant get enough! As much as I like those I dont think I would want to smoke them all the time. I am trying to build up my humi and enjoy exploring different sticks. I would like to hear about some of your fav mild-meduim to meduim sticks! Thanks.
I like to smell hickory, oak, and cherry, but I try not to inhale too much wood smoke, hard on yer lungs, brother

Taste are always changing, so in a few months it could be some other cigar. 1 other is the Perdomo Champagne.
:-$
Good to try everything you can, but don't stock up yet on any one stick. Most will tell you that your palate WILL change, and you may no longer enjoy any of the smokes you enjoy now. Nothing worse then having a cooler full of sticks you no longer want to smoke.

Believe me I am nowhere near a cooler full of anything except Spotted Cow. I want to try again with the full body smokes, but really dont like the hard pepper bite, sorta makes my stomach hurt.
if you can, and are willing to drop around 9 bucks find a Headley Grange Estupendos, nice medium cigar, but complex flavors, some caramel/sweet, very little spice on teh 1st few puffs.
some people say they have a raisin taste...
I don't quite get that, but it definitely has sweeter/floral notes for me....
great morning smoke with some hot black coffee.....
and...............it's "organic"..........what's not to like?
Romeo y Julieta
CC's preferably, but some of the NC's are good too.
Hoyo de Monterrey

Some here feel they're the holy grail. Personally, I haven't had one yet that was worth the hype.
+ a gazzillion!
One of my favorite go to smokes that I recently discovered is the CI Legends Camacho. It's a nice mild to medium body smoth smoke good construction and delicious I haven't had a bad one from the box yet and I have smoked about half of it. But if you enjoy a pure mild I recomend rp conn or a drew estate chateau real. Personaly though right now I am crazy for Graycliffs.

Milds are too mild. Mild-meduim to meduim are what i am smoking now and I am starting to move towards a medium-full. thanks for info
try an Oliva serie G
+1 on the maduro, and the price ain't too bad, especially if you catch a deal.
Also, the post about your tastes changing is dead on. I used to go for coffee/chocolate, now I'm hung up on pepper which I used to sorta dislike.
WOAM every once in a while is still a great smoke!
