My Favorite Cigars

This portion of the website is where I get a chance to tell you which cigars I like to smoke.  I think I've finally determined how to judge a cigar - at least for myself.  I'd probably be dead wrong if I tried to advise anyone else on the particular high points or low points of cigars they might be interested in.  However, I do know what I like.  When it comes to mild cigars, I love the flavors imparted by Connecticut shade wrapper leaves.  When it comes to full bodied cigars, I know the difference between "spicy" and "bitter". 

Of course, the best advice I can offer for getting the true taste of any particular cigar is to take your time when smoking.  Don't rush through a cigar by smoking it quickly.  You'll just add too much heat to the mix - especially when you're heading down the stretch with the last 1/3 of the cigar.  Take your time.  Enjoy the experience.
