EAR: Three 19/20/21 cigars you dislike balanced by Three 19/20/21 cigars you are loving.

[El Presidente]

EAR = Email Assistance Required

 

Came in overnight and I have no problem doing it if it provides some benefit particularly to relative newcomers. 

Keep it to 2 or 3 cigars. 

 

"....so Rob I was agog with how many people didn't like D4 and RASS in your "3 goes and out" thread. My taste buds say they are mad! It got me thinking however. If "birds of a feather flock together" I am wondering if there would be a correlation between 3 cigars that people hate and three cigars that they like. You see I hate Belicoso Finos, Partagas 898 and Mag 46. I am loving BRC, BPC and HDM Epi 2. If I can find other members who hate 2 of the 3 cigars that I hate then i want to try the cigars that they like. Does that make sense? Can we start a thread along these lines?"

 

 

So good people. Make it as simple as this.

Great idea. Definitely an interesting look into what people are feeling (and if there are commonalities). I am definitely splitting on my likes/dislikes of the original emailer (I do love 898 and BBF...but also loving the BPC's right now).

 

Enjoying: 

- The last of my Partagas 898

- RASS (2020, will visit the 2021 box in about 6 months)

- BPC- doesn't ever seem to disappoint. Favorite PC right now, and I prefer PC size.

 

Not feeling right now:

- VR Unicos--I tried (again). Still having a hard time seeing what people like in these, especially with the qc issues I've had lately. I want to enjoy a cigar, not fight it.

- RyJ Short Churchill. Feels like it takes too long to "get it" when I am smoking it. Flavor takes too long and by the time I hit the good spot, what I liked is fleeting as soon as it arrived. Interested to see if people have a strong feeling about these vs ex 4.

I used to LOVE Cazadores. But it's been an awful long time since I've had one. Reminds me that I should revisit them sometime.
