Even if you prefer Cubans, I think it's still benficial to smoke some NCs occasionally.

CCs may be the smoothest and most complex cigars available, but I've found there is a large range of unique flavors present in many top quality NCs that you don't get in Havanas.

Illusione and Cruzado are some of the best non cuban cigars made. Construction, draw, consistency, and their own unique flavor. The are even better than some Cubans.

Nice to hear you enjoyed it. The Epernays (especially the smaller R.G.s) are one of my favoirtes.
Try getting hold of an El Centurian. I think you will feel the same way.
