7 year aged burnt Madagascar vanilla...

[Quincy]

7 year aged Madagascar may be a little excessive but it reads nice on the page, and Madagascar does differ from vanilla from elsewhere. I also don't understand why people on this forum are against exploring their pallet.

I don't claim to have an extremely refined one, but trying to discover and define what flavors I taste in my cigars have definitly enhanced my enjoyment
of the hobby.

If it's less about that and more about the anti snob thing, I think I better understand. I can appreciate that other people can equally enjoy a cigar without being able to taste or try to find hints of dried apricot and that they aren't less of a smoker for not trying that.

I suppose I just wish they put it that way as opposed to make it sound like they are against people who try to expand their cigar smoking pallet.

That is it in a nutshell.

Odd that you say that, because I do frequently go back and torture myself with various things to identify flavors when I'm smoking something new and exciting.


For the record, fine cedar shavings, when packed in a lip, produce quite a buzz.
