The My Father CT was a bit strong on the pepper for me.

So, I am looking for suggestions for high end mild smokes. Like real high – Davidoffs and such. I want something that will make them really take notice and say “wow, that’s a good smoke”.

I'm not sure why everyone thinks this, I had smoked some fairly expensive mild smokes (Ashton, Rocky Patel) and I never liked any of them. Honestly, it's a big reason why my New Years cigar was the only one I smoked all year. It wasn't until I had some more flavorful cigars that I really got interested. I mean I enjoyed the RyJ Vintage 1875 and Montecristo Classic and White, but the Flor de las Antillas, LADC and LP#9, Ave Maria and Oliva MB3 are the cigars that I enjoyed significantly more. I'd get some solid medium cigars and then ask them if they would like milder or fuller from there...

Had a Hoyo de Monterrey Excalibur for the first time today. Excellent, mild smoke with a fancy band. Perfect burn.

Diamond Crown, Julius Caesar, Davidoff.

THe Julius Caesar isn't a mild cigar. Delicious though.

+1 on the Davidoff and I would also recommend the Illusione Epernay line.

I love the Julius Caesar line, not mild, but delicious. Also, definately not cheap.
As a side note, the Devils site has 5ers of the Julius Caesar Toros on free fall this week. Picked them up for $43.28. Just reporting, not enabling. Lol

High end--Nat Sherman.

I never had a full sized Nat Sherman but the .5 was by far the best mild, sweet cigarillo I've smoked by far.

Mild, medium or full strength has absolutely nothing to do with flavor.
