Cubans that you DON'T like?

[akyprianou]

I don't like Romeo J Julieta never had a cigar of there's I've enjoyed, although the Petit Churchill was a good smoke with a beer. Yet to try there actual 'Churchill' however

Also found the Petit Edmundo to be one of the worst Cubans either ever smoked also, had a good 10 of them now can't get into them

other then that I enjoy all the brands

[MattKernow]

I suppose that I should probably be willing to try alot of these cigars to try for myself?

Not tried alot of them and I should try all of them!

Hey Stevie, one of the best Cuban's I ever smokes was a HDM Epicure No 1 from a cabinet at JJ Fox, some 15 years old I sat upstairs and smoked it and the aroma was overwhelming, just a stunning cigar.

[Stevieboy]

I like most cigars from most of the brands but I'm not a fan of Hoyo de Monterrey (apart from the DC). I've tried them all expect a couple from the 'Le Hoyo' range but they're not for me....


Fonseca don't do much for me (The French RE is good though)

Hurumph! I see you've been messing about in don TJ's massive unit, again!

Perro, el Perro

.... or doesn't know how to keep his own cigars?

[TJCoro]

KEEP OUT!

The best Cuban cigars I have ever smoked have been aged for a minimum of 10 years by someone who knows how to keep cigars.

I'm not mad on new ones, ie any that haven't been aged for a minimum of 3 -5 years.
I find them rougher and lacking subtlety.

It Takes Time!

I think that someone touched on it earlier that you can't really compare mini's & clubs to 'normal' cigars.
Normal as in the slighter higher ring gauge, my experience was started on the mini's etc. If I have one now, I find them quite bitter & harsh.
I think as your cigar experience grows & your palate adapts, you will appreciate the nuances that cigars have.
Touching on the Cohiba theme, I've found that age makes a huge difference to them, you're talking perhaps a minimum of 3 yrs at least to get that smooth creaminess instead of a harsh peppery taste.

My 2p worth

Haha! Aged Cohibas! Well stated, amigo!


My two pesos!
