I am primarily a CC smoker. But I do enjoy many NCs.
What I hate are the stupid lame ass names some of these NC brands come up with. Which is what prompted my earlier post. And what demographic are they trying to appeal to?

I agree that some of the names of these new cigars sound very gimicky. I think with all the competition, they are trying to stand out. Does it work...I don't know, but some are very good and some suck, regardless of the name. The true afficianados can see through the ridiculous names and don't care what the hell they are called. But I bet the occasional smokers that walk into a B&M for a bachelor party or frat party would be attracted to them, because of the band and name.
