Hello all..
New here and a pretty new to handmades.. Smoked several "gas station" cigars in my lifetime but very few handmades..
Years ago while driving truck I stopped in a trucks stop that had a very nice smoke shop inside and the very nice owner talked me into buying a tin of macanudo cafe ascotts. Damn I loved those things and ended up buying several tins from him. Well that was years ago and from time to time I thought one of them little cigars would hit the spot..
With that said I began searching to order some online but after reading a good amount of reviews saying the quality has tumbled greatly in the recent years I decided not to.. Instead I ordered 2 humidor/sampler from Cigar.com and another company.. Anxious to smoke a good cigar a friend and I head off to the closest town with a humidor (45 miles away and their humidor is about the size of a broom closet no kidding). With VERY little selection and not knowing what the heck to buy ( couldnt ask the person working there as they had no clue) I ended up grabbing 2 Macanudo Baron de Rothschild thinking that would be a safe bet to treat a friend and myself. Boy was I wrong as that thing was like sucking a mud hole through a straw. Watched and read many cigar reveiws talking about earth flavors in a cigar.. If thats earth flavor you can keep it.. I am finding I kind of steer away form cigars that have earth flavors in the discription/review.. So far that is the worst cigar ive smoked by far (if I had smoked that before I made my orders I would have not ordered thats how bad it was, was making me think quit cigars before I even started)..
Not totally sold on samplers as the samples I recieved with my 2 humidor/samplers so far have less to be desired.. Ive been doing ALOT of reading and watching of reviews and kind of making a list of cigars that seem to have the flavors and such I beleive I would like and watching sales, deals and sprint for them in 5 or 10 packs.. Noticed MOST samplers appear to have 1 or 2 good sticks in them and the rest are just hoe-hum sticks to get the quantity count up. So far Ive found I dont care for Macanudo Baron de Rothschild (not at all) Cohiba red dot robusto (had 2 letting the other rest awhile, may give it to my friend) Sancho Panza (didnt finish it.. does anybody?)... the ones that were OK have been a Hoyo de Monterrey, and Gurhka beauty (didnt finish it as got bored with it, but wasnt bad) and a couple others..
Thinking I will really dig those that have transitions of coffee (LOVE my coffee) coco, espresso, leather and chocolate..
