I have a problem with anyone deciding anything definitive about a cigar after only smoking 20 minutes of it. How can it be a review of a "Cigar" if the whole cigar is not smoked?

There have been plenty of cigars I have reviewed that I wish I could put down after 20 mins, and there have been plenty of cigars that I was glad I did NOT put down after 20 mins.

I understand their deadlines (I really do), but not smoking the entire cigar is not acceptable review practice, IMHO, esp when the people who are taking your reviews as gospel ARE (supposedly) smoking the entire cigar.

Just my $.02.
