Draw differences and meanings

[Roham]

I understand the differences between a light draw and a tight draw. However, I do not know what that means in terms of quality. For instance, last night I smoked an Oliva Serie G and it was like sucking air through a straw. It was a bit offputting. Does that mean it was dried out? Was it just packed loosely? Does that affect flavor?

(I tried searching and found nothing explaining this.)

What kind of cut did you use?

Guillotine cut. But I very well could have cut it open too much. I might still have the end, it should be on top in the trash can. If I can find it i'll edit and give more detail.

EDIT: I measured it. The cigar was around a 48 ring (measured roughly 3/4") and my cut was 9/16". Dunno if that helps at all.

Hmm, website says it was a 5x52 Belicoso.

You can't use a bullet style cutter on a belicoso. Just try cutting a tiny bit off, then see how it draws, but more if needed. Should make it taste much better too

Unfortunately, I only bought one of those. I'm in my "buying singles" phase so I can experience many different cigars. I guess I won't write them off just yet. Definitely will try a smaller cut next time.

Thanks, everyone.
