    Fonsecas are very good mild smokes
    The Griffins is also a very good mild smoke (expensive, though)

    RP Connecticut is a very tasty mild smoke, but may border on medium
    Rolys (Puros Indios 2nds) are mild-med and dirt cheap

    Hemmingways might be pushing the envelope a little, but might be worth a try.

    And listen to what BPP says. He knows is stuff.

    I've given him both of these. He said the RP Connie was too strong. I keep a few of the Rolys around and he almost choked on the one I gave him.

    I told him I give up trying to find something for him. He works in Detroit so I told him to go to a B&M over there and ask for the mildest they have and he can keep 'em in my Humidor. I mean, I like the Connie Rubusto as an early mild smoke (very flavourful and I think I'll have one right now!!) but it's probably the mildest I've had. Jeez, he even foung the Helix strong and apparently, that's one of the mildest made (or so I've been told).

    Jim, can he tell a difference between a good mild cigar and a bundle cigar and does he care ?


    By the way I tried the Thompson brand that they stuckin that sampler. They say its medium but it seemed like mild to me. Let me know your opinion if you decide tosmoke em

    I will say that the Perdomo Imperial that a B&M shop owner said was mild-medium kicked my butt and made me a tad bit sick... heads up to avoid if you don't like medium-full.

    Try the Griffins. They're pricy, but wicked mild. Onyx might be a nice one to try (it's a little fuller, but it'sa good newbie cigar)

    Great advise on the mild smokes in this thread - Fonsecas, Griffins, Onyx etc.

    One of the better mild smokes that helped me to get started into premiums is the Cusano 18. They do not carry a whoppin' price tag either.
