Well I asked this question back in Sept "10" but with all the new stuff out there,I thought I'd ask again.
This is my favorite cigar wrap and I'm always wondering what else is out there with this wrapper I need to try or haven't heard of.
List the ones you like the best and others you know of. Inquiring minds want to know!
:cbig:

+1 on La Sirena. I'm glad Jere was chasing skirt at IPCPR, otherwise I wouldn't have known about this stick.

What a great leaf. My all time fav is the Noella reserva, but I have to say I really enjoy the PCR currently. I have a La Sirena that was gifted to me from Raspol, but have not had a chance to burn it yet. There are a good number of sticks out there with this leaf, but of course they do not always provide the same flavor for obvious reasons. Similar, but not the same. I am very excited to try the La Casita Crolla when it becomes available. IMO and from what I have smoked over the years with this leaf, Pete really drove this leaf home.

Pete is the reason for my love of this "Leaf" without a doubt!

Thanks Mr. Mack Daddy. For a minute there, I was listing all my favorite Broadleafs, and then I came to the realization that my favorite B-Leaf cigars are from The factories of Pepin, Fuente and Drew. Back in the day I would have included some in the Villazon lineup, including Punch, Hoya de Monterrey and Jr Ultimate Double Maduros, but these days they are too mild for my taste.

Yeah the HdM epicures aren't bad at all... but like you I've moved on to others.

My vote is probably for the La Ricky #5.
