Great job everyone.  Thanks for making time for this during the holidays.  Have a happy New year. If anyone wants to post their experience with the different wrappers, I would love to read about it.

I'm 100% for the Cromagnon over the Aquitane. It has both more flavor and better flavor imo. More of that coffee note instead of the dirt from Aquitane. And also I rarely find the Cromags to go bitter.

Just my 2 cents. Thanks again for letting me try a rare size by them, it's been fun hunting down all the different ones.

Rob, difficult decision for me, the only difference is the wrapper, but it is a big difference in flavors.  US Connecticut Broadleaf vs Ecuador Habano Ligero,  Until I can make up my mind my plan is to do much more research

The reviews are posted - looks like everyone picked up pepper, and lots of it.  Did anyone like the Habano wrapper over the Broadleaf?  These short smokes have a regular spot in my winter smoking rotation.  I do tend to grab the broadleaf more often, but there are some nights that I want a spicy smoke.  Thanks for the reviews.

 Clay I am with you, I like most everything by Skip Martin.  These little cigars are great and keep them on hand always.
