Choosing the best cigar isn’t an easy task. The choice of cigar reflects the mood of the smoker, and his environment. It will be very simple if we dictate some general principals and advise rules to follow but we will be misleading.
The choice of the proper cigar for the proper occasion remains a personal choice and can vary with regards of to the meal you are about to be served or the wine you have chosen. However, detecting a well conserved cigar can be guided if we follow those few sensual principals.
Regardless of the type cigar, a well conserved Puro Del Oro must have a smooth surface with no major nervures or dark stains. White stains reflect a good maturation and should not alarm you unless they are numerous. A cigar with holes must be rejected.
If you hold a cigar in your hand it must give a supple and soft feeling. Once you’ve squeezed a well conserved cigar it must not crack between your fingers and must regain its initial shape.
The smell of a good cigar reflects the aroma and the spicy perfume while a badly conserved one has a dominant insignificant herb smell.
It is at this level that your choice of a cigar will be affected. You don’t really taste exactly the same flavor twice. The taste varies under many factors all related to the handicraft aspect of the Puro Del Oro production.
