Thanks for reminding me, that was a huge flop of a cigar. Superb construction, tasted like old boot leather.

I think, in the words of the famous bard Yogi, that half of this is 90% mental. I have found in all my hobbies, pipes, cigars, booze, snuff, food, etc. that going into something with high expectations almost always causes disappointment. The reverse is also true. I'm guessing that if folks would compare their lists, the ones that disappointed often had high expectations, and the ones that didn't carried low expectations. Yes, some won't fit, there's always those that floor us that we thought would.

I agree. Except on the snuff thing.
