Cuban Cigars Suck

Cigar

Despite the fact I stated I never smoke, I was coincidently talked into smoking a Cuban cigar last night. I figured you don’t often get the chance to smoke one in the United States, so I might as well take advantage of the situation while I could. So I sat down with some friends and a few Cubans and a nice eighteen year old scotch.

Now while I don’t actually think the cigar sucked, I really don’t get what was so great about it. Maybe it is because I’m a non-smoker, but I really just don’t get the appeal of this. I honestly tried to enjoy it, but I just couldn’t. I don’t think it was particularly flavorful or anything like that. It just felt like I was inhaling some smoke. Now granted, I have nothing to compare it to. Maybe it is so wise to start out with the very best. But this will be the last cigar I probably ever smoke.

What do you think? Have you smoked a Cuban Cigar before? What did you think?

I enjoy a good Cuban every now and then (make sure it’s the good stuff). Just remember not to inhale like cigarettes. You just need to let the taste dance on your tongue… then exhale. Well, I know what I’m doing tonight.

different than cuban gold, this is the most important video you will see on your double double journey. success.

ps. they’re overrated by those that would have you promote their status if they do smoke them and promoted by those who would make money by it’s status. I have enjoyed sitting to a cigar, a brandy and good music. None of these are negative, all in excess can be.

a cognac, fireplace, good company and excellent music. recipe for relaxation. although the type of cigar and price have nothing to do with the QUALITY of enjoyment, the cuban cigar is over rated.

Well, cuban cigars have been overrated for years. All of the other countries figured out how cubans were made and have long since surpassed the quality of the cubans.

Furthermore, cuba is a small place. They can only grow so mch tobacco so fast and keeping up with the demand of the world runs its toll on the quality of tobacco.

There’s tons of better stuff out there.

You’ve tried “both”?

There’s THOUSANDS of different cigars.

You think there’s only two?

You DEFINITELY don’t know what “the best” is. Especially
if you think it’s a disgusting low-quality fucking Cuban.
