I'm trying to improve my reviewing skills. I've even started using the dreaded food & shrubs terminology a little.

I've come across the term "heady" several times in other reviews (CA mainly). What does this mean - makin' ya' woblely :p ?
 
Heady - Richness determined by the variety and quality of the aromas. The words "rich", "generous" or "heady" may be used to describe a smoke with a wide range of aromas. These adjectives express the richness and fullness of the aroma.

The use of the word "heady" to describe cigar smoke should not be confused with the same word used to describe a wine: a "heady" wine is one that is high in alcohol, i.e. a wine which "goes to your head".

The opposite of a rich smoke may be described as having an aroma that is "poor", "thin" or "flat".

:D

Stack,

Well, plagarism or not, I appreciate the clarification bro. That helps a lot. I'll see if I can use it correctly in an upcomming review :p

Cheers,
