Cuban cigars for beginners
May 18, 2008
If you ever catch yourself around hardcore Cuban cigar smokers, you will see the passion each one has for their smokes. I never really bought it until I had my first Cuban cigar. Each Cuban cigar is very unique in it’s own way and smells definitely different. Cuban cigars range from light to strong in taste, the popular ones are actually really strong and you have to work your way up to it. Like Cohibas, Montecristos, Partagas etc. The amazing thing about these cigars is sometimes you’ll feel aromas of chocolate and vanilla and such and the funny thing is none of these things are ever added. It’s just natural beauty of the Cuban tobacco.
It is very rare for you to actually come across any Cuban cigars that are mild. As a matter of fact, most of the best-known Cuban cigars are actually quite strong and are well known for their specific flavor. There are other ways to rank a Cuban cigar other than its flavor, however, one of these is by the way that it is put together. Cuban cigars are notorious for being hand rolled tightly and for smoking very well.
Among the different types of Cuban cigars there are also a variety of different shapes and sizes. They are not all shaped in the same way nor are they all specifically cut to a certain length. For example, the Montecristo No. 4 is the most popular cigar in the world. Another cigar by the same company, however, is the Montecristo A. This is a larger cigar and is a fantastic smoke but you’re going to pay more of a price for this one. It is about three times as much per cigar than the most popular brand that they have. It is well worth it, however, as they are very well put together and use excellent tobacco which makes for an enjoyable smoke.
Each brand of Cuban cigars brings something new to the senses. The variations in brand really help people to select the one that is right for them. I like to enjoy Cuban cigars when I just want to relax by myself. I like to grab a nice bottle of wine, sit on my patio and puff away in the middle of the night. Cuban cigars are also one of the best way to have fun with your friends and family. Maybe have a nice father - song smoke off. Nothing wrong with that.
No matter where you get you Cuban cigars from, make sure they are legit. Only get them from authorized by Habanos SA distributors. You can’t get them in the US as they are illegal but you can get them on the Internet. Again watch out for people selling them for a few hundred bucks as you won’t even find them that low within Cuba!
