I have a little problem

In the past few months, I have been taking notes on my cigar experiences (sp?) either mentally or on a log I started (BTW thank you chefchris for your log, it had stuff I didn't know I was paying attention to). In this log, I have been doing basically a review that more than likely only I would understand (it is extremely basic as I am not that complexed). I have tried to develop some sort of system for me to look back at when heading to the B&M or ordering online for which cigars I like so I can get some more or which type I like so I can try some similar. Well here is the problem, other than a couple that I did not like at all, all of the cigars I have smoked (AF, CAO, Acid, RP, Graycliff) I have liked. I have been able to start to distinguish different things I like, so I don't like the same things in all cigars, but for the most part other than a few cigars, I wouldn't mind smoking all the cigars I have already smoked again. While I am not overly upset about this, as I suppose it is a good problem:smiley5: I am begining to realize that I will soon run into problem with lack of space and more importantly $$$. Oh well, let me get out the help wanted ads for that extra job I will be needing.

:smiley37:

Evidence is earlier I went outside to smoke a Dirt by Drew Estate with the intention on smoking it just to get it out of a small tupperware container I have been keeping it in so I could begin the process of retiring the container with all my Acids. Only problem is I went outside and had a great smoke..:smiley19:

Sorry, I realize I could have just edited the previous post....

Just try something totally new and see if you like it. Maybe buy an assortment of single cigars and give some new stuff a try. Sooner or later you will expand your horizons.

that answers your question.

I bought a few sampler packs for CI and it starts to give you a better 'understanding' for the different flavors, spices, etc that come out in a smoke. I think you will find many cigars that you like and a few that just don't cut it. Eventually you will get some real favorites. I have a somewhat freakish variety, but, I like what I like. EX:

After dinner I like a Joya de Nicargua, but before dinner I may have a Cusano 18.

Plus, I love to golf and I would never, EVER attempt to play a round with a Joya!
