Is James Suckling still with CA? He was really the only reason I use to read CA.

Thanks. I know he retired from the Wine Spectator, but didn't know for sure if he still worked on CA. He has started his own wine review/journal now too.

Their reviews still leave something to be desired. In the issue I have they rated the Cain Daytona a 96 or so. Completely absurd.

That is absurd, that cigar is at least a 98.

Well, something to be desired or just different taste?

I hear you, though. They all over the Torano Master. I tried one yesterday and it performed well and didn't offend, but did little for me, flavor-wise. They talked up its 'complexity' something fierce, but I found it pretty monochromatic.
