Intro

If you smoke 20 of the same brand of cigars a day and have a well-developed palate, you will see there are no two cigars the same. Each cigar must be approached as a completely new experience. The best way to enjoy the adventure of smoking cigars is not to dwell on past experiences with a certain cigar, but to experience the one you are smoking now. The cigar is perfection, it desires not. It comes from the earth. It is shaped into a work of art. It gives pleasure to the smoker and then returns to the earth in a full circle.

1.The cigar is mystical; it cannot be described by words. It must be experienced. It is the evolved essence. It gives without taking.

2.Many manufacturers who don’t understand the cigar, like to direct your focus off the essence and distract you with small details, like the flavor and ease in which it comes.

Aesthetics are not that important. If the draw does not come easy, then you will not be relaxed while smoking. Search for a cigar with an easy draw and fully dimensional flavors that fit your taste at that moment.

3.Be courteous where you smoke. How can you enjoy smoking a cigar if it causes another discomfort? Cigars travel on the path of peace.

4.Cigars give life to many families, yet they do not take. Cigars give pleasure to many, yet they do not desire. Cigars are great works of craftsmanship, but cannot be kept for great lengths of time. From birth to death, they flow peacefully with constant change.

5.Cigar enthusiasts understand the simple pleasure of smoking a cigar. The simplest of things cannot be done by words. They must be experienced.
