I also believe they give high ratings way too easily. Everything to them is a classic

Yeah, I dislike how their rating system makes it impossible for a cigar to get less than a 70(I personally haven't seen less than a 75, but I'm sure there were a few out there), and damn near impossible to get higher than a 95. If you're only going to rate something in a 25 point range, just make it a rating out of 25 instead of adding to each rating to make them seem higher.

Brooks basically states my opinion here, more or less, so I won't make you all suffer through another explanation of the same exact thing
