Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Just curious if you HAD to identify yourself as a snob or not (or a variation from the poll) which would you classify yourself as?

Let the polling begin!

Define "snob". I also do not see a poll.

I wasn't done typing it yet.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Nope... I love cigars from all over. :tu

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Nice poll, Mike!

Wait that didn't come out right!!!

Neither did that!!!:bh

I am curious to see if the real snobs will admit it!!!;)

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I'll try anything once.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I guess I should state that I made the votes public on this one because I was curious about the same thing. :tu

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I guess I'm a snob, because I'll only smoke what tastes good to me. I think that would apply to just about everyone since taste varies.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Wii better say yes

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

It's very interesting how this poll is structured. I prefer to smoke what I like. I don't think that is on your list. I suspect that, in your thinking, that this would make me something else, perhaps a cigar asshat or similar.

Smoke what you like, like what you smoke. Don't let others criticize your tastes and don't criticize others. Too late for this thread.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I pretty much don't care what other folks smoke, they paid for it and hopefully enjoy it. Though if I am with others while smoking I would rather not be around them if the aroma of their cigar is affecting my enjoyment. Examples for me, the Acid line and other flavored cigars. Something about those aromas seem to overwhelm the area and even make it's way onto my palette, I HATE that. Then, I feel a my attitude change, definitely snobbery, but I think warranted. Fair or unfair?

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

great, another cigar asshat

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Oops I accidently chose the one above the one I wanted .
I meant to click on No. I am not a cigar snob. I smoke ANYTHING. Because I try new things even if other ratings frown on it .

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I'll try pretty much anything, but only continue to smoke what I like. Not sure where that fits on this poll. :confused:

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

The 5th choice is contradictory in my opinion.
What happens if you give 1000 monkeys 1000 typewriters and 1000 monkeys 2000 paintbrushes?

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

this survey is flawed! I'm a snob but im broke! I consider myself a huge cigar "snob" but i will smoke anything (at least i'll TRY anything in the cigar world).

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

:rolleyes:


Glass Top Cohibo Banana leaf fillers for everyone!!!

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I guess I'm a bit of an NC snob...gotta be a MADURO!! :dr :dr :dr

But hell, I'll give anything a try. :D

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I'm tired of pretending I'm not special.

I probably should have read all the options before choosing... I'm somewhat of a brand snob (CC and NC), but taste rules all. There are expensive brands I can't stand and cheap brands I love.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

:dr :dr

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Oh, you are special, my boy.....Very Special.

I'm a Starfish!

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

OK, honestly? I prefer Cuban tobacco, but I try to keep an open mind (and palate). Actually, 3 of the last 5 cigars I smoked this week were NCs. But I smoke Cuban 95+ percent of the time. If that makes me a snob in someone else's eyes, I could care less. I smoke what I like, and like what I smoke. You should do the same.

Couldn't find an option to express that.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Me too. So I didn't vote. Should be one there, although I think of snobs as people who act like a jackass and pretend to "know it all". So on those grounds I don't think we have many if any snobs on this board.

Or people opposed to anything but "their" cigars. Which again I think most everyone here is open minded on some level.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Smoke what you like, like what you smoke.
I'll try just about anything.... once.
Never a Gurkha again..:r:pu

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I like to smoke quality, regardless of what country they are from. If that's Nicaragua, DR, or Cuba, so be it.

I like Viajes, Anejos, and Behikes, Edmundo Dantes, etc. Doesn't matter where they come from, as long as they taste good :)

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

It's cnob.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I don't think you are being unfair with how you feel but how I would deal with the situation,I have no idea.
This is pretty much my line of thought Mike.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I agree with the smoke what you like, like what you smoke, but I'm always open for suggestions. It's very rare that I go into a B&M and don't walk out with something suggested by someone in the store. Sometimes I like 'em, sometimes I don't, and I'd never tell someone what they're smoking is crap just because it didn't appeal to me.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

My #1 criteria for a cigar is it has ot be less that $5. Whether I get it from the devil auction site for that price or the B&M is running a special, must be less than $5.

From there taste rules. I like different tastes for different times of the day. I don't care too much for brands (except a couple that are strikeouts) but they do serve as a good guidepost for quality.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

It's kinda like music for me, if you like, you like, if you don't, you don't

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

When I think of a "snob" I think of someone who critiques what others smoke. In that sense I don't think I'm a snob at all, smoke what you like how you like it. When it comes to what I smoke, I haven't been around enough to be a snob, but I would avoid gas station cigars. Long story short, I marked the sometimes box. Taste is the pen ultimate.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Has the OP identified what a "cigar snob" in this poll means to HIM?
Can't see everyone assuming what he means.
I have no clue if I am a snob or not as to him it may have a completely different meaning than it does to me.

Interesting that if you google "definition of cigar snob", this thread comes up as first on list.

So......let's not disappoint and define it then see if anything on the list on the poll applies.

To help better define it, Snob to me has a condescending tone. If one can afford premium cigars and enjoys them, why are they a snob?
If one likes Cubans only, why are they a Snob?

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

25k+ posts and not one more spot on than this!

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I have little patience for cigars that don't "wow" me; however, those that do tend to come from various parts of the world.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Working a B&M it is tough for me to say that I am a 'snob' since I try to help out with what people like to smoke. I love what I smoke and only smoke what I love. But I try EVERYTHING I can get my hands on. Man, I have a tough job... haha

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I try not to be a cigar snob, taste does play a big factor in the cigars I choose though. I think I give equal opportunity for both CC/NC :)

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I'll smoke anything.

I usually try to go for the more pronounced names, but I have found a few diamonds in the rough. When I go to the B&M, I'll get a smoke I know I like and then a "cheaper" one that I haven't tried. Ya never know, it may be my next go-to smoke.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

OK, so I voted and went with the "NC Snob" option. However, I'm not sure I'd be considered a "SNOB" by some folks' definition. (I might be by some other's.) Anymore, I'm exclusively a Tatuaje and DPG guy. The thing is, within each of these brands, there is a TON of diversity, selection, and variety. YMMV, but I've come to love these lines and, subsequently, that's what I end up smoking.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I will try anything thats not a flavored cigar. I seem to smoke some of the more popular names more often than not but thats just because it's what I enjoy the most.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

Perhaps a cigar snob is someone who verbally assaults another about their choice of cigars.
That being said,
MMM, Habanos.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I make no pretense that Cuban cigars are better. I just enjoy them more, so that's all I smoke. Life is too short to smoke cigars you don't 100% enjoy.
YMMV

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I'll try just about anything once, cigarwise. Life's too short to not try things.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

never had a CC, so that option is out the window :=:

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I thought the poll was asking if I was a Cigar Slob! I'm always getting ashes all over myself, so I answered Yes.

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I choose quality, regardless of what country it's from. You cant put a price on something great... -(P

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

I'll try most cigars once (that leaves out pseudo cigars like blunts, and most flavored sticks). Not going to buy a pricey cigar just because it's pricey, though. I've had too many $2-3 sticks that smoke as well or better than $10-20 sticks!

Re: Are you a cigar 'snob'? (poll)
 

If smoking what you like and can afford with no lifestyle impacts is considered snobbish by some... well consideration needs to be given to whom the snob label best applies to.
