    Help me find a sweet cigar.

    Ok so I am on the look out for a cigar that has that HINT of sweetness. Not ACID kind of sweetness just the underlying profile of sweetness. I have a few flavor profiles I have found that I KNOW I don't like. Pepper being 1 and Grassy being another. I am looking for a natural (not flavored) cigar that is slightly sweet but not sweetened. If that makes any sense.

    Help a guy out? Whatcha' thinking?

    Cheers
    Jay

    Ever try headley grange? I get a nice, sweet tobacco, spice, and wood flavor from it. I don't know if it really qualifies as sweet, but it's definitely not peppery or grassy and tastes wonderful IMO.

    Haven't had one in a little while, but if memory serves correctly, try a New World or La Sirena. Both are a chocolatey sweetness with little spice.

    I seem to get some sweetness with many cigars wrapped with leaf from Ecuador. Surrogates Tramp Stamps have a bit of syrupy sweetness, but it also has a bit of spice. I get a little creamy sweetness from the EPC New Wave Connecticut. I get a similar creamy sweet profile from Davidoff 1000's.

    I concur with Tim. Ecuadorian Connecticut wrappers have more sweetness than the pepper often associated with other CT wrappers. The Gran Hababo Zulu Zulu lancero would be a good example of that.

    I get a spicy sweet flavor from the Room 101 Namakubi Ecuador. I get a mild nutty sweetness from the AF 858 Flor Fina with the Cameroon wrapper.

    Gran Habano Cabinet Selection, chocolatey goodness, a bit of pepper, but not overpowering. Also, the Flor de Oliva Maduro if you are looking for a cheap smoke

    La Aroma de Cuba Mi Amor Reserva. Im still developing my palate but it felt like there was an underlying sweetness to this one.
