I will second the Onyx recomendation. They make some great Maduro Cigars and have a nice sweet flavor to them. The first time I had one was in college. I had only been smokiong cigars for a couple of weeks. I wanted a cigar for that night and gave my friends a couple dollars to pick one up for me. As a joke the came back with a Onyx Churhill. The joke was on them though. They were all commenting on how good it smelled, and I told them not as good as it tastes. Sweet taste in the mouth and chocolatey as Illuminatis states. It is the Snickers Bar of Cigars!!!
I had a couple of the CAO Mx2 Robustos last week. THey were pretty peppery as you said, but I enjoyed them. I had not issues with either the burn or the draw. I could see myself having one from time to time. Might be nice after a spicy Thai meal. I would keep a few in my humidor, but do not think I would get a box.
