I have quote a few mellow and mellow to medium cigars of good quality. When I try a new smoke, I can tell right away if it's a lousy smoke--harsh, cheap tobaccos poor construction, overall just lousy and cheap. I can tell a lousy cigar right away.
The problem I have is that all my better cigars that I enjoy seem to all taste about the same. If they didn't have bands, I would not be able to tell one from the other. They all are equally nice to smoke. Anyone else have this issue?
