I'm not sure that's worded correctly. I'm only in my first week of cigar smoking and I am having trouble telling the difference between the flavors and tastes of cigars. I have smoked a different stick every night after dinner and have kept a written log of things I have noticed. It's mostly how hard it is to light, what does the ash look like, how much smoke is produced, does it taste ok with water or coke, does it burn evenly. Not many notes on what it tastes like since I can't tell. I'm really enjoying puffing away but I could be smoking innertubes for all I know right now.
This is what I've tried so far, and maybe they are crap, I don't know. Cremosa Cubana, LaArora E Leon Maduro, 5 Vegas Grand Reserva, Fonesca Serie F, and I am on my second cigar tonight a Perdodmo Estate Selleccion.
Another thing I have noticed, with the exception of the Cremosa Cubana they don't taste so hot after about 1/2 is gone. They seem hard to stay lit. Most of the sizes seem to be around 5-6" and fairly fat. I'm not sure of the exact gauge sizes but I wonder if the shape has much to do with how far down they should be smoked. Most of them seem to last a half hour to fourtyfive minutes for half the length. If I roll the ashes off the end when they get to be an inch or two they don't want to seem to stay lit.
Any insight would be appreciated,
