Some of the Best and Worst Cigars I've smoked were Cubans. Same goes for the NCs... I think the NCs have come a long way in recent years quality and taste wise, whereas the Cubans really haven't made much strides. Don't get caught up in the mystique of the origin or the brand. Trying all different kinds till you find what floats your boat is what makes the whole experience as great as it is...

Enjoy

Hard to come a long way when you're already there!

Don't buy Cuban cigars, don't smoke tobacco, don't speed, don't download music from the internet, don't have sex before marriage, cool whatever floats your boat...your stance on any of these issues doesn't affect my life.

I had one of each today and the NC was delicious all the way through but the CC got burnt tasting toward the last third. Both were aged a couple of years. I don't support my states plan to charge prohibitive taxes on cigars and will be making my purchases elsewhere if it goes through. Just have to see where "elsewhere" will be.

Sounds more like banter coke.

Am I the only person who actually prefers Diet Coke? I always felt that regular coke/Mexicano coke was too sweet
