Creamiest Cuban

[hanjr]

I do enjoy cream in a cigar...I find the HDM EE the best...what are your thoughts on the creamiest CC you ahve had?

[nKostyan]

A very frequent topic, it is easier to use the search for the keyword "cream"

[NSXCIGAR]

Hoyo EE is considered by many to be the "king of cream".

[Colt45]

For me, the Hoyo DC and Churchill exhibit a cream / condensed milk flavor element, but in a balanced, non overt fashion. Some Montecristi, Upmann, but for me they're more along the line of coffee/cream. A "creamy mouthfeel" is another, different aspect, and many cigars can show that.

For a beautiful creamy smoke I grab a Hoyo des Dieux. For a decadent vanilla cream smoke I grab a Sir Winston.

Tastes like glazed doughnut with  lots of whip cream.

How do you define creamy?  Marshmallow can be creamy too. 

[Yellot00tr]

Wow. This is shocking. Never heard this before. Going to have to look into the La Fuerza. Are they like that young or do they need some real age? Does this imply that the Principe would be creamy as well?

HdM EE for me, but the issue is draw.  I've smoked 5 (from a box of 10) and only 2 had decent draws, the others were tent pegs (two were salvageable - barely - with the poker).  But the 2 that were perfect?  Voluminous tsunami of creamy fog.  For me, when I hear "creamy" in cigar terms I think mouthfeel rather than a taste.  If it was the latter I might say something like Fonseca #1, even.  That said, the EE does have a vanilla frosting flavor component that bolsters the overall creamy character.

Creamy to me is less a flavor and more a mouthfeel or texture component. 

The marshmallow I use in describing La Fuerza is literally a flavor.

agree with this. 

[Kayslay]

I recently smoked a double Edmundo with some rest (2013, maybe) that was very creamy imo. More of a cocoa cream.

They were singles from the host so I don't know whether they were young or aged.  It had a distinct cream flavor.  Don't trust me though because I don't know to distinguish a lot of different flavors.

Who wants cream without something else in it? I like blueberries and cream, personally. Strawberries will do in a pinch. I’m talking about food, of course. In cigars, I like a little cocoa, coffee, or nutmeg flavors in my cream. Or even pepper ?. I like for my tastebuds to be entertained. 

[Yellot00tr]

Interesting. Very interesting.

No doubt with the HDM EE. A few other standouts that I get the definite creamy mouth feel are the Connie A and PL Montecarlos.

EE is the Mel Torme of cigars.  Minus the toupee. 

[StogieSteve23]

Connie A is a big one for me that stands out.
