My bestie is a cigar lover and keeps a small humidor at my house. Every so often he pulls one out for me to try. I can enjoy them and I'm beginning to notice the subtle nuances of them, but I don't know if it will ever really be my thing.
Did smoke a 2004 limited edition Coheba last week that sells for $120 a piece. I don't know if it was fabulous, or if I just convinced myself it was because of the price tag.

[quote]They are neither classy nor gross to me, they can be rendered either based on how, when and where someone choose to enjoy one.[/quote]also true
[quote]Depends on the smoker.[/quote]this is also true as well.
also, depends on the cigar brand and leaf blend(because there are many different subspecies of tobacco, and some companies do not use pure blend[think crown royale not being 1 pure whiskey but several blended together]). some are nasty.
Cubans are no longer the world cigar kings after a late 90s blight wiped out their famous tobacco strain and they had to start over from a supposedly crappier strain.
also, you can get Cubans in the US if they are imported from Europe or the Dominican Republic; some brands in the Dominican Republic and Europe still use the old Cuban strain but produced from their own domestically grown plants(which thus were not affected) and they import these to the US.
I enjoy them on rare and special occasions.
