Great work. But it's too difficult to memorize all the acronyms!
:-(

Not if you're like most of us cigar geeks. After you are on here for a few months, it's like second nature. I find myself talking to people in my b&m with the acronyms and they have no idea. :r

How about an introduction in the New Inmates Processing Forum?

This was a great help to this newbie!

Thanks,

...since someone just asked me about cigar/board terms and acronyms, here's for the newbs and guys who have never seen this...:ss

[KetelOne]

I found NC, but what does CC mean?

[Chingas]

I found NC, but what does CC mean?

From the ISLAND.

Thanks for reviving this thread!

[chippewastud79]

I found NC, but what does CC mean?

Used when refering to Cuban cigars. :tu

[KetelOne]

Doh! Thanks guys :)

[boom]

bump....this is very helpful to all the new members...

[jet66]

What does 'XO' in the name mean, like Avo XO Intermezzo? Thanks in advance!

[icehog3]

My understanding is that it means a mix or a blend, so different tobaccos blended together in the cigar.

But I've been wrong before. :r

[Ismith75]

Always thought it stood for eXtra Old...atleast in booze. Don't know if the leaf in these smokes is aged longer but that would be my guess. :2

[Katmancross]

This is off the wall and I need to be careful.
But one of my clients objected to a review saying it was highly sexual.
??
I said that the billows of smoke hit me in the puss.
And later I said the cigar tasted of sweet wood.
He had never heard those terms before.
I Googled the hell out of cigar terminology and couldn't find anything comprehensive.
Somebody should come up with a list of terms used to describe flavors and aromas.
And the winner with the best array of terms gets me to come over to their home and I will sit there and say nothing.

[Stick]

Somebody should come up with a list of terms used to describe flavors and aromas.

If one considers ISOM disrespective then NC must likewise be considered disrespective doubly so. Not only are you neglecting the actual country of origin you are clumping all cigars that are not from Cuba into one, undistinguishable, group.

And who, may I ask, considers it "disrespective"?

I think of CC as Cuban Cigar and Cc as credit card.

Any Updates To The CC's That Some Of Us Are Just Getting Into? I Get Confused In My Old Age As To RASS, RASSCC, SC El Principe Has A Full Abbreviation, I Think, Etc. Thanks!:)
Sorry, I Found My Answer To Some Questions On First Page. Just Curious If Some Common CC Abbreviations Were Left Out? I Still Don't Understand What A Lot Of The Sticks Are In The "What CC Did You Smoke Thread". For Example:
13' La Flor de Cano Edición Regional Gran Bretaña Gran Cano. I Have No Clue As To This Stick. Thanks! :):tu

Here you go Greg the First, this might help out with the different sticks (not so much the abbreviations), I'll look there or sometimes I'll just copy and google any cigar I'm curious about.

This! Finally! I'm new to the board and to cigars. I kept seeing names like Corona, Robusto, etc... and I'm wondeirng.."What are those?" Searched the forum threads and wasn't finding what I was looking for. There's a lot of threads. So I Googled it and found another website speaking about just this, shapes and sizes. I was like..cool I'm going to contribute to the site, sweet! Then the logical side of me was like...this is a cigar forum. This HAS to be in here somewhere. I can't be the only one to have asked this. And so here I am. Thank you for the link. I'd like to add the website I found as it has good information also.
