Don’t Judge a Cigar by the Way it Looks

I will occasionally take a peek at Cigar Aficionado’s site because it is a great resource. Today, I went on there and saw that they had a new cigar of the week featuring a Cuban cigar called Cuaba. It’s a pretty big perfecto that received a score of 92 points from the experts.

But Holy crap! This cigar is ugly!

Even though this is an ugly cigar supposedly it is very good.

I guess beauty is in the eye of the beholder but, in the end, all that matters is that the cigar functions well and tastes good.

  1. If you don’t want to say that thing looks ugly then what is it? Rustic?

    Yeah, I guess rustic would work.
