It seems to me like the whiter the ash, the better tasting the smoke, but it might just be my imagination.


thoughts?
i've also noticed whiter ash tasting better. especially with the same cigar (brand and shape. not same exact cigar) but i've had a MC platinum that had really dark ash that was really great
