E.P. Carillo New Wave has been mentioned quite a bit and I definitely agree. It doesn't have to be a $15 stick to be an excellent mild cigar. Avo Classic is also a pretty solid mild-medium stick.

Just to let you know, I'm bowing out here. I think this has gone too far and I really don't see how my further participation can do anything other than perpetuate what's undesirable here. Up to now, nobody's broken any rules and I'd like to keep it that way.
Cheers

I know I am a little late to the conversation, but to an extent I agree with Aithos. IN THEORY, there shouldn't be a relationship between strength and flavor. But for many of the NC's, this is the case.
There aren't that many mild and flavorful sticks out there--at least in proportion to the medium and full sticks.
In the NC world, there seems to be a positive correlation between strength and flavor. You have exceptions here and there, and most of those exceptions have been posted---so take note LOL.
As much as I cannot stand Davidoff, they are worth a shot.
A good TRULY MILD stick (needs some rest) is Aurora's Leon Jimenes. They are extremely respectable cigars.
Now the CCs on the other hand....lalalalala

Also, I would watch out for cigars wrapped in Ecuadoran Connecticut leaves....haven't had many disappointments flavor-wise and a good number of them aren't too too strong either.
Just my two cents.

While not really high end, My father Conn, a good mild one at a decent price point.
