CC's are a slope I am trying to avoid for now. I hear they are a fuller bodied and stronger (more nicotine) cigar than NC's, but I am sure that depends on the NC also. For now I'll stick to one slope.

That's subjective, too. On the whole, I haven't found a single Cuban cigar with nearly the nicotine punch of a stronger non-Cuban. They do make mild Cubans, you know *wink wink*

It all comes down to tasticity. It is that simple.



What is "tasticity"? It is a word I just made up.

From a collecting standpoint CC's are it. The marcas have largely remained the same and they are dated unlike most NC's. NC's it seems that every few weeks a new and exciting brand comes out... only to fade away. It also seems that if a good stick does come out the hype is so huge that the price skyrockets and the quality plummets.

CC's aren't fancy for the most part. You get a very nice stick for 3-4 dollars. Many of the 3 dollars CC's are better than a 10 dollar NC. But the 10 dollar NC is still very nice.

Some of the ligero-packed NCs are much stronger than any CC I've had. CCs have a unique taste, but their strength varies from mild to full.

that was a joke Robert!!!

this guy is some scumbag selling CUBAN Macanudos on Craigslist... there is no such thing as a Cuban Macanudo... the guy is a crook

and not only is he defrauding people by saying that, hes trying to charge $1000 for a $7.00 cigar!!
