The problem with reviewing

bruceolee · 03-05-2022, 02:57 PM

I just got back from my local B&M and purchased these:

The problem with wanting to review everything is I go and buy these planning on enjoying them and as soon as I go for one to smoke i say to myself

"that would make a great review!"

So i then pick another cigar to smoke instead. Oh the first world problems of being a reviewer at heart! Oh well this hemingway short story will have to suffice instead.

God bless you all!

Padron Anni would be my first choice

good choice! The principe is one of my all-time favorites. Maybe that'll be my next review. God bless you!

That is why I don't do 'reviews' currently. To me, it takes away from the enjoyment and relaxation, creates more work.

I love to do reviews, but sometimes I just want to sit down and enjoy a good cigar.

Or two, maybe three.

Couple in some Scotch, Irish Whisky, Cognac, or beer and I’m not my reviews would be terribly good.

One thing that does get my attention is poor cigar construction. I would expect those cigars to all be well constructed

The one thing i really like about reviews is they make me slow down and taste the cigar. When i'm not reviewing I can blow through a cigar without much of a thought which has its place in life and can be nice. I'll keep the reviews coming of course and I promise that i'll take time to smell the roses too. God bless you all!
