I have discovered the infuesed cigars I liked when I started smoking cigars daily don't taste good anymore now that I have smoked more traditional and good to fine quality cigars. Any comments.

I like mild. medium, and full cigars. And I smoke an occasional infused cigar, like the Takab Especial or a Cuban Honey.

But, the flavored stuff is very few and far between.

"Flavored" cigars are usually made with **** tobacco and they are "flavored" to hide the taste (somewhat.) Acid makes "infused" cigars, but most have so much "infusion" you can't taste the tobacco which is of a higher grade than most flavored cigars.. On top of that, Acid Cigars are overpriced. You would be better off sucking a charm or mint. Their worst one is the Nasty, which is aptly named, with the Egg a close second.

Yeah, I was the same way, I liked the flavored ones myself when I started. The guy at my local BM said dont smoke that candy! And when i went to reg sticks..... no more candy from that day on

As with many things, when you start out your tastes are "getting their legs" and will evolve over time (or not, no shame in that). I have only been a BOTL for about 12 years now and if I go back to the smokes from my early years, they are like air balls to me. Same thing happened with the beer I drink. Moved from light stuff to the dark lagers.

That is one of the great things about cigars, there are plenty to choose from and real BOTLs don't care what you smoke, just that you do. Light up and enjoy what you will!
