Wouldn't you like to know?
A lot of it is that a lot of the current production is weirder sizes. The good news is that you can often find well aged sticks. I will have a #3 on its way to you tonight. Reasonably aged from a 00 box.

I love the NC La Glorias as an everyday, never tried a cc but would assume it's got to be good!

Apparently this is not a popular brand, thus older stock can still be found. I like the MdeO#2 when in the mood for a milder but still tasty smoke.

I agree with Terran on the Medaille d'Or No. 2. But it has been a few months since I've had one...need to buy more.

MdO 2's with some age are one of my favorite smokes - veerrryy tasty!

The Tainos with age are also an excellent milder Churchill. They generally require quite a bit of aging to reach their potential.

I also enjoy the smaller gauged smokes - MdO1 & 4. Surprisingly flavorful for their diminutive girth.

I think Bass Man nailed it. LGC's are a milder smoke and a majority of us enjoy a stronger profile in general.

I tried the LGC MdO No.4 and enjoyed it for a mild smoke.

On the thread about flavors the MdO 4 would be a good one to reccomend for some of the subtle flavors that some haven't experienced.

Really limited production for worldwide distribution. Just don't come across them a lot and Cuba's never really promoted the brand!
