What To Expect From Cuban Cigars:

Found the comments on the strength of CCs vs. NCs to be the most frustrating part of the read. Utterly inaccurate.

I actually found it to be quite a good article, more detailed and accurate then most articles found in US magazines, that usually limit themselves to bashing Cuban cigars, for the simple fact that they are "unobtainable" there.

I totally agree. Almost without exception, every CC I’ve had has exhibited a pleasant mix of subtlety, finesse and flavor, while most NC’s enter the room like a bull.

Otherwise, this was a very good article.

Thanks for sharing the article Rob. Found myself in agreement with most of the article And picked up some interesting trivia along the way.

Have to agree. A surprisingly good article for such a "lifestile" rag. Not once again focussing on the "bling"-factor or 'big is better' and containing some useful information. I particularly like the inclusion of a repro of the original embargo order. Minor incorrect facts can really be overlooked given the generally fairly well and nicely written bit. At the least, the author seems to be a cigar lover himself and is not just ruminating second hand info. One can feel by his writing (and him answering comments) that he is passionate about it. I will go as well.

PS - him referencing the RG Lonnie, the Imperiales and the Hoyo DC somehow shows class

Sure, the author name-drops some fantastic cigars, but some opinions suggest me he is not fully experienced with Havanas (stronger than NC, Partagas Serie D#4 beginning with a flavor explosion, etc). Still, good enough intro for the bling crowd without jumping to bling-tastic cigars like some of the multi-banded hog legs we've been seeing/hearing about.

Not terrible, but as others have noted the biggest error is in the strength.  If a Lusi makes him dizzy then an Opus (or several of the old blend Camachos) would give him a stroke!

Maybe it's the port he drunk.
