While doing a good review can be a bit of work, and my palette is nothing close to refined,I find that writing reviews actually helps me with my sense of flavor.

There was a time when I would just grab a stick and smoke, not really taking the tme to enjoy it. Writing a review ensures that I focus only on the stick.

Many comments on my reviews actualy help my confidence with my flavor sense. And I hope that my reviews are doing the same for someone else. I once put in a review that I tasted gingerbread, I was leery of putting that down, bt I did. It was nice to hear in the comments that other smokers had tasted the same thing.

Reviews are a little like a golf caddy. They give you direction, let you know what you should expect, but in the end, you still have to do the work, whether it is smoking the cigar or playing the hole.
