Re: Two very "cubanesque" cigars I've smoked lately
 

no...tang, as in tangy......tart, sharp.....but I have heard twang used before, but I usually associate that term with a guitar

anyway, dems good ceegars

Re: Two very "cubanesque" cigars I've smoked lately
 

Gotcha, Mike.... I was confused because I don't associate tart flavors with a Cuban profile.

:tpd:

I've often heard some refer to the Cuban "twang". But never "tang" (spicy/tart).

Damn....tang vs. twang almost needs its own thread :)
I forgot to mention that I often exhale through my nose and sometimes run the burning foot under my nostrils and inhale the off-smoke. A lot of flavors and aromas can be missed if you don't IMO.

Yeah, retrohaling is pretty standard amongst the Cuban smokers here, Mike. Still never got a tart progile from a Cuban though.

Oh well, different strokes for different folks.
