Walking through a well-stocked cigar shop or browsing online, and you’re trying to pick a new cigar or two, can be a daunting task sometimes. Unless, of course, you already know what you’re looking for in a cigar. Do you tend to choose cigars with the same flavor notes over and over again? Chances are your choice says a little something about your personality.
If cigars with coffee, leather or wood undertones are your thing:
You enjoy the smell of rich mahogany and the feel of aged leather. That is to say; you’re luxurious. You enjoy the finer things in life. You have a Hugh Heffner-esk smoking jacket and a fine aged brandy in hand while savoring these rich flavors. Peering down at your Rolex and black ostrich cap toe shoes (alligator is so main stream) while discussing politics and literature with your cultured friends is a favorite pastime of yours. You know what you like and you go for it.
If you enjoy cigars with honey, floral or fruit undertones:
You tend to be a happy person. You are bright and fun and make friends easily. Going for such light, bright flavors points to you having a youthful attitude. Which means, you can enjoy yourself anywhere (and are probably the life of the party). You’re a backyard barbecue lover and know that you don’t have to be a kid to enjoy a good tire swing. No one could ever accuse you of not enjoying yourself.
If cigars with herbs, spices, or cocoa are more up your alley:
You know the trends before the rest of us; because you’re the one setting them. You bring your loom to the hole-in-the-wall coffee shops you’ve frequented for years. You knew that skinny jeans would go out of style and come back in before anyone else, so you never abandoned them. You wear ironic tees and drink absinthe to expand your mind (Hemmingway was probably on to something). You are cultured and some would call you edgy. You have good taste, keep on keeping on.
What we choose to enjoy speaks a lot about our personalities. However, some may not tend to pick only one flavor over and over again. Having more than one of the flavors mentioned above simply means that you are multi-faceted. So enjoy your well-rounded humidor and keep living your best life, my friend.
