Was going to ask the same thing, but then I was going to change my question to...

Are the * after each cigar the number of stars you gave each one?

Yes, the stars are ranked * for rolled-up Yellow Pages to ***** for celestial. Was a restaurant critic for daily newspapers for 21 years, so I prefer the star system.
The MUWAT 11 unraveled, had a tough draw and was a harsh cigar. A waste of money.
The MOW Puro Authentico Oval was a dream smoke. Contacted cigar.com about getting a box or at least a 10-pack, but they are only available in the AJ Fernandez Ovals Sampler. Was my maiden voyage to Fenway, so the cigar's superb taste made for a great walk to the ballpark.

Sounds like you had a great vacation and got to enjoy some great cigars too. I've been thinking about picking up that Fernandez Ovals Sampler and based on your comments it sounds like an even better idea now

They kicked me out after 2 days because the Red Sox lost. Did get a two-red socks logo cap that i wore to blend in with the rabble.
Maine was wonderful. Loved wild roses blooming everywhere. They were glad when we checked out because of my cigar smoke.
And that AJ Ovals sampler is a swell deal.
