U ever find a cigar that feels like it was blended for your tastes

What I mean by that is have you ever smoked a cigar and thought that the maker seemed to have your tastes in mind. For me it seems the Oliva V and MOW Puro are two cigars that just fit my taste so much it was like if I were to sit down and blend a cigar it would come out tasting like each of these respectively. Especially the Puro, perfect size just the right amount of oomph and flavor, not overly complex but when I grab one I know exactly what it's going to deliver.

That's the way I feel about Punch Roths. I love them. Fortunately for me, they're also cheap.

I also enjoy many other cigars. But the Punch Roth is one that I go back to over and over and over again.

As has been said many times - smoke what you like and like what you smoke.

happens all the time for me. Usually turns out that it was a fluke and they're never the same again.

I feel that way about the Oliva G serie. I loved these way back when they were first introduced as the Grand Cameroon. Still my favorite all time cigar.

I just had one of those yesterday. I like them, but I like the O's and MB's better. The G's can sometimes be a little harsh. Although the one I had yesterday was perfect.

La Casita Criollo is a very unique tasting cigar that just clicked the first time I smoked it, as though I finally found the taste I had been searching for. I am rarely disappointed when I smoke them. I think in that sense, I consider them to be blended to my individual taste.

We are truly brothers here, Brian. Have herfed a Pepin San Cristobal Monumento, CAO America, and CAA Short Maduro and was blown away by the experience. Purchased three boxes of each and failed to reach the experience with each cigar burned.

Now if a cigar is very pleasing, I leave it at that, enjoy it and just move on.
