Does not sound snobby at all. Thanks for sharing. I’ve always LOVED the smell of cigars and aside from books and open dimes, depending on my travels, chocolat, coffee, tea, rum and CIGARS have been my go to / favorite gifts to give. But only recently I started to smoke cigars and now I’m spending hours reading about about the history (origins, from indigenous use in the Americas to their spread across Europe and the world.), the cigar-producing regions (Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Nicaragua…), the regions of cigar production (Cuba, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, Honduras, etc. and how the climate, soil, and traditions of each region influence the taste and strength of the cigars.), the tobacco leaves (Including the wrapper, binder, and filler. Different varieties:  Criollo, Corojo, and Connecticut. The curing and fermentation processes of tobacco leaves.), Cigar Construction (hand-rolled vs. machine-made cigars as well as different shapes like parejos and figurados + sizes robusto, toro, and churchill, and how size affects the burn time, flavor, and strength of the cigar.), aging and fermentation (Aging tobacco improves the flavor and mellows out harsh notes, while fermentation brings out the tobacco’s natural oils and flavors.), cigar tasting (understanding the flavor profile - spicy, earthy, creamy, etc.  understanding strength -mild, medium, full, and how to pair cigars with beverages like coffee, whiskey, or wine.), cigar etiquette (proper way to cut or punch, light, and smoke a cigar.), humidor care (Maintaining the correct humidity and temperature is essential for keeping cigars fresh and flavorful.) … and on and on lol it’s really interesting, but it’s a lot to dive into so I’m 100% open to hearing your thoughts / likes and dislikes.
