I dont know about anyone else, but I cant "taste" a cigar like some of the people who write these reviews. I read some that says a cigar tastes "nutty", "woody", "cedary", "bready", "papery", "chocolaty", etc. I even read one review where the person mentioned that they tasted a hint of "lemongrass" in the cigar. Perhaps I just have crappy tastebuds, but I can only say that a cigar tastes good or bad. As much as I try, I cant get taste all the things these people write about. Go figure.
