No worries on the potential derailment. I appreciate the insights.

The variety out there is so overwhelming. I was hoping that it would be easier to manage if I could just have a blanket "I like dark wrappers best" preference, but I guess that ain't going to happen (plus, I'll likely end up denying myself of some different albeit still good smokes).

Reminds me of beer. When I first started really appreciating good beer, I found that I almost exclusively drank the darker stuff (stouts, the occasional porter and fruit beers), but in the last couple years, I've learned to appreciate most of the various styles and the different flavors they bring.

I'm looking forward to doing the newbie sampler later.
