IMO, Yes, a dog-rocket can still be complex. Taste is subjective.

Interesting, I have only heard "complex" used to describe what were reported to be "good" cigars...

I like to use words to describe cigars that cannot be contextualized; twangy, oomph, rich, chewy and of course complex... If these words are subject to individual interpretation, as discussed with complex, what is the purpose of using them...? It would seem they present no consumable value to the target audience...

I think some people, epecially through shared experience (like smoking the same cigars, or Puff-Puff-Passes), may have shared interpretations of words like "complex", "chewy" and "rich", among others. Subjective, yes, but exclusionary? I don't think so.

Twang? I don't like that one.

Good point about shared experiences... I do get a chuckle when I hear some descriptions tho... "I was blessed with a rich and chewey smoke that finished with a complex twang."

Oh and about a cigar tasting twangy, prolly better than tasting wangy...
