Re: What is an Aficionado
For me, a Cigar Aficionado means anyone that smokes cigars because the enjoy them.
Doesn't matter if $1 or $100. Just someone that loves cigars. If one looks at the definition of "aficionado": An enthusiastic admirer or follower; a fan. Doesn't say anything about having to smoke high end cigars or be an expert on cigars. I think all of us on this board qualify as aficionados.

But if by that definition the other fellow that was mentioned by the OP is an cigar aficionado, I would choose to qualify myself as an asylum inmate instead.

Absolutely agree. Only consider myself an aficionado if by the true definition of the word. Amazing how words evolve and how folks interpret them. Clearly those folks the OP is referring to have an evolved/twisted interpretation. As I always say Kelly, ignorance is curable.
