In general if you like a maduro of one variety, you will like maduros in general. They have a very distinctive flavor - earthy and sweet. However, you happened to pick an example that is one of two exceptions I have encountered. Fuente maduros do not taste typically "maduro-y" to me. Neither do ISOM Cohibas.

Also, Indonesian-grown Sumatra wrappers have a different flavor from Ecuadorian Sumatra wrappers, so be sure and try both.
