Hello,
I am new to cigars and have enjoyed reading others' experience in reviewing new cigars or adding thoughts on thier old favorites. So far, for me a cigar tastes like a cigar. So did everyone have to develop thier senses to identify specific tastes or smells?
I can tell the difference in a mild verses a full-bodied cigar, especially at the beginning of a mild when their is not much volume of taste. I can especially "feel" the tobacco buzz on the last third of a full bodied stick.
But I have not yet been able to identify chocolate, vanilla, oak, cedar, pomegranate, whatever... Does this become an acquired skill?
I enjoy the relaxation, but I think I am still rushing my smokes so far and drawing too hard because I don't want the cigar to burn out.
I am going to smoke a Rocky Patel Connecticut tonight if anyone can give me a tip on what to hone in on.
