    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.

    My addition would be La Gloria Cubana serie N, this was sweet and creamy and chocolatey for me.
