The Simple Mareva
First, let me say that I'm glad I found this forum. Being new to cigars, I sure have learned a lot from the posts here
It was close to 8 months ago when I had my first hand made cigar, courtesy of a good friend from work. And since then, I have been rather fortunate that I have smoked more than several nice sticks, from various different brands, shapes, and sizes...from the twiggy 19RG to the tree trunk 60RG. And although I enjoyed almost all of them, somehow I feel that one particular vitola really hits the spot...the simple 42RG Mareva. Anything smaller, and I have to consciously watch my pace in order to avoid the smoke from getting too hot and bitter. Anything larger, I would need to have the proper amount of time in order to thoroughly enjoy the smoke. And time, unfortunately, is a luxury that I rarely have. But the Marevas...they are easy to clip without worrying that I may damage the cap, easy to draw, easy to light up, and provides 50 minutes of blisful relaxation. Don't get me wrong...I'd still smoke other vitolas. I love my Monte Petit Edmundo and HDM Epi#2. And the D4. And the P2. And the CoRo. And the RASS. And the Monte2. And very much every Padrons. And so on and so forth. But these guys in the pic below will always be in my humidor... So...what's your favorite size? |
