"The proverbial little red wine, so delicious in a Tuscan village with your sweetie, never tastes the same back home in New Jersey. Meanwhile, the big California cabernet, which you enjoyed so much with your work buddies at a steakhouse, ties tucked between buttons, doesn’t have that triumphant lift with a bowl of spaghetti."

Truckloads of truth right there. I also find that the first time I smoke something I have been highly anticipating, it is great. A week later, not the same.

Oh, and anything smoked in the wind; never as good.

Sheesh ...... damn wine newbies :rolleyes:

As we all know, they would probably get the same results on cigars. We all know there are those $5 cigars that out perform many of those $10+ cigars. So much goes into the advertising and hype. As the old adage goes, "Enjoy what you like."
