Default Re: What makes a good cigar a good cigar?

the only truly complex cigar i've ever smoked is a San Lotano Habano torpedo. i enjoyed it, but i wouldn't want it every day. for me a cigar that screams for my attention too often is a little irritating if i experience that cigar too often.

i like a cigar that has all the elements working together. i don't mind if the flavor is consistent from beginning to end as long as it's pleasant. sometimes theres 2-3 flavors that are present from start to nub and they're always there. that's good enough for me, but if they're not accompanied by a cooperative draw and burn (if i have to pay more attention to those things than what i'm thinking about, listening to, etc.) it can ruin the experience. i don't care if the flavors are amazing if the draw and burn are no good because that can cause me to miss some of the flavors. the only cigars i've ever been bored by are 1 flavor cigars where the flavor is barely there in the first place. mind you i've also experienced cigars that had 1 overpowering flavor the entire time that didn't bore me but it was overkill.

so i guess my answer to you, scott, would be that for me a good cigar has to have some of everything (good flavor, good draw, good burn).
