Man, I was thinking last night as I was enjoying a belicosos fino, I wish Pete would do some more Cabaiguan LE's. Its just such a good line between the maddys and the guapos. I really enjoy it across the board. To my knowledge I think the WCD is the only "LE" right? Well, heres to wishful thinking....thats an LE I'd go to great lengths to aquire.

The Guapos 46 are killer little sticks:big: I have not tried and of the others might have to swing by Emersons and pick up a few to try.

I had my first Cabaiguan yesterday afternoon while doing some yard work....I think it was a robusto, or very close. Very nice!
I definitely would like to sample a few more.

What is the favorite size/vitola within this line?

Yeah, I agree, it'd be cool to see another Cabaiguan LE. Maybe something like a Lonsdale. I've tried to imagine what the original (not the Guapos or Maduro) Cabaiguan blend would be like with a Broadleaf wrapper.

Let's brainstorm here - what B&M's have a notable anniversary coming up?

Clint, cant go wrong with any of them. I really love the Guapos 46 maduro great broadleaf. As far as the OR Cabs, theyre all good, try the Belicosos Fino next pal. You wont be disappointed.

I fell in love with the Guapos when I had my first 46, just made me melt. Not such a fan of the regular Cabaiguan but I would be very interested to try this with Broadleaf

Are we all Broadleaf whores?

I'm definately in agreement with Shawn on that, regrettably the maduro's did nothing for me!

The Broadleaf-wrapped Cabaiguan Lancero (i.e. the El Triunfador Lancero Especiales) is my favorite. But I also love the natural Cabaiguan and would love to see that in a lancero!

I've always been on the fence about the Guapos, but I need to revisit them soon.

Only had a handful, but loved each and every one. Gotta pick more up.

I'm a BIG fan of the originals and the sol. Not a broadleaf guy but I'll say the maddys are one of the few broadleaf sticks I really enjoy.

I really think Pete should add some vitolas to the regular line. A londsdale would KILL, so would a PL and a PC.
