@Nacho Daddy Tom, you have mentioned Epi. 1's a couple of times. What is their flavor profile? Or what are they comparable to?

fairly mild but rich ,oats ,honey ,light earth ,floral aromas.
touches of fine leather sometimes , slightly lingering finish.
poor crops kept me away from these in '15 and early '16, later '16 s have been very nice.
these are late '17 s and will not see daylight for many months.
similar to The early Camacho Connecticut sticks, not as floral in the aroma though.
Maybe like the smaller Epernay, less sweet.
I love them for a first smoke and with some of the less known teas I have.
Puerh, Dragon Well , Jin Jun Mei ..............

I like the HDM Especials. And I get hints of green tea from them

Tom, for us uninitiated types, would you mind explaining a "backdoor" CoRo?

Rolled at the Cohiba cigarworks ,with Cohiba leaf.
Sized and finished to a robusto, never banded, boxed, or sent to a distributor.
I suppose this could be a version of grading for presentation.
These were not quite pretty enough...…….
so an NC Cohiba?
Love those custom rolls!First CC purchase from Havana Bob's in Cozumel. Plus ten of Bob's hand rolled (smoked two already) and a freebie he tossed in.
I've had two, very black tea flavor, quite tasty medium body sticks. Happy I got ten.Love those custom rolls!
I'm a big fan of his blend! I visit Coz twice a year and always buy a bunch to smoke while I'm there, then stock up before heading home. Enjoy!I've had two, very black tea flavor, quite tasty medium body sticks. Happy I got ten.
