From my newbie perspective-- this beat the hell out of Punch, Upmann, RyJ and most of the others I've tried so far in the past two weeks.
So far, I like the Maduro wrapper smokes best.
Any suggestions from you experts ?

I'm not a fan of maduros but the one I liked the best was the Fuente 858. Check out the review I wrote on it. You might also want to try Habanos Puros maduro. It is Cuban seed, and worth a try.

Last night

Cohiba red dot mad. Decided to splurge and these were fresh in the store. Nice flavor, a few change ups. On the light side of medium in strength. I won't get anymore - there are better cigars for the money. e.g., 26's, 64's, Padilla 811 (IMO), Tataje.

Received a new shipment and had to try a couple...
Macoba Minis (vanilla flavor from Germany) - not bad. Kind of like smoking a filterless cigarette, though.
CAO Moontrance (Dominican Rep.) - much better than the above. I'm not crazy about flavored smokes but I could suffer through one of these occasionally. Helix Remix are still my favorite in the flavored line (amoretto).

Leter in the day I smoked a Manuel (Manolo) Quesada (Matasa?) -- one of those overrun deals from Cig. Intl. -- Very smooth Conn. wrapper, definitely a keeper and I wish I had bought more than one box. When I opened the box this afternoon I noticed bloom - not mold- on every stick. First time I've seen that...

Oh well, lots of different smokes to try yet.
