A cigar is as good as memories that you have when you smoked it.” – Raul Julia. Cigars are like wine. You get some good ones and you get some bad ones. But the one thing they both have in common is that you need to savour it. Like a sip of your favorite wine when you taste the flavor combination of herbs and spices, so too does each cigar have something unique to offer your palate. If you are new to the scene of cigar smoking or are looking for something different take a peak.
