For a pretty good representation of the mainstream maduro, try Sancho Panza Double Maduro, or CAO Mx2. The list Ciro posted from JR says an oscuro wrapper is also called a double maduro, but that is kind of vintage info. Double maduro these days refers to rolling the cigar with a maduro binder as well as a maduro wrapper.

You should also try a Brazilian maduro - to me it is the most dead-on delicious maduro-y treat available. CAO Brasilia, and PDR 1878 Capa Madura are good choices. I like the PDR a little better. If you're willing to go up in price a bit, 262 Paradigm is a terrific cigar. Even though I roll a creditable maduro blend at home, I still like to have a few Paradigms on hand in the lancero vitola. It's kind of interesting to try all three brands - each is made with filler from a different country.
I really like the PDR 1878 Capa Oscuro Liga #2....
