Not even close to what I said and I'm not here to argue the point.

I think you missed the point.

The problem is not when people describe the cigar (briefly or in a review) but when they draw conclusions and tell you they are good/bad or you will love/hate them. That is pointless.

I disagree, again, when someone tells you a cigar (or anything for that matter) is bad the fact that it's an opinion is obvious. "I hate Gurkha" and "Gurkha sucks" mean the same thing basically. No matter how the opinion is expressed it is still an opinion and most thinking human beings will weigh it against other opinions they have heard.

That's why I never tell anyone "You will hate Gurkhas". I just tell them that I hate Gurkhas. Hell, I hate IPAs too, but they must be the best selling microbrews around and lots of people love them.

that's what I try to do with my reviews too, give facts (size, looks, burn, flavors) in the review and then my personal opinion, would I buy the cigar again. Not telling anybody to smoke or not to smoke a certain cigar.

Going with Peter on this one. Palates vary widely and what is one person's trash is another's treasure. That I don't like the Gurkha cigars I've tried means nothing and should mean nothing (exception, of course, to mkarnold1). To dissuade someone else from trying a cigar because I dislike it would be a disservice and possibly keep them from trying something they may love.
