Really broadly speaking, the NC countries rank order in increasing strength, Dominican Republic, Honduras, Nicaragua. You’d probably be better off starting in the DR. It’s been a long time since I smoked such a cigar. I used to think Fuente Hemingways were a good choice.
Have fun, I hope.

Oh yes, I understand the ones you sent were stronger Nicaraguans, that's one of the reasons I wanted to especially try singles of them rather than buying 5 packs.
I've recently had a regular Fuente maduro that was OK, and a Short Story that was decent, but neither wowed me enough to be interested in buying a box.
I've had Nicaraguans that I've quite enjoyed recently - Tatuaje Frank, Padron 3000 maduro, so I still want to explore them more.
And I am having fun! Exploring cigars is a blast!
