I am new to the cigar world and bought a few samplers online. Last night I had a Sol Cubano - Cuban Cabinet and LOVED it. The cigar.com description says it's really full bodied, but to me it seemed pretty mellow with even a SLIGHT hint of sweetness (at least, through the first 2/3rds). So, my "palate" may be way off.
Basically, why I'm posting... I want to know
a) what you guys think of these smokes
b) what you recommend I lean towards for my next purchase if I liked these a lot
c) left in my sampler: Man O War (both Ruin and non), nub conneticut, RP Fusion MM, RP ITC 10th anniversary, Park Avenue -- What should I smoke next of this bunch? (I'm having a quasi get-together & smoke thingy.... so I want to enjoy the next one... I'll go back to experimenting later)
d) I guess... about that get-together and smoke thingy... I'm bring some smokes for some even n00bier people than me.... what's a good smoke out of that above bunch I have left over?
Additionally, I've only had a few others...
Rocky Patel Sun grown -- I liked very much
Man O War Ruination -- I think this was too strong for my n00b palate (also, my humi may have been TOO dry... it seemed to burn really HOT -- I have a few of these since the sampler came with 5)
these are the only ones I can really remember... the other ones have come after a night of drinking (I had some sort of montecristo mini cigirillo thing... or it was a romeo y julieta... i'm not sure... remember? the drinking...)
Long post.... thanks for reading it... and responding (if you do)

hey man, everyone's palate picks out different flavors. I don't really like Pepin's blends simply because they aren't spicy enough, and there's too much sweet woody flavors that aren't my favorite. But Maduro wrappers tend to be "char" flavor no matter what to me, with a few exceptions.
I love the Sc cuban cabinet's personally and would deem them worthy of a box purchase.
