Okay: this brings up a good qusoeitn. Traditional habano. Please define!Also: I take it Habano is an adjective, whereas a gar marked Habana is (or at least purports to be) from Cuba?As a newbster, I have a lil confusion over what’s what: I have things like Cuban Heirloom and Habano this and Habano that So: let’s say one wins a contest/pass/stash of some sort: what are the telltale signs of a Cuban? Can one assume that ALL Cubans would be marked as such (given their enhanced desirability)? Or might they simply say something like imported ?Thanks for reminding me to vent!

Ben,

Thanks so much for the kind words! And to think, I was pretty dopey still when I wrote up the Man O’ War review! I’m glad you enjoyed it, and I am even more pleased to hear that you’d be a future reader. Let me know if you have any questions along the way, and and as always, thanks for reading!

First off great view man. You break everything from the construction to the flavor profile nicely. This is my first time reading your reviews and will not be the last!

No kidding, I wasn’t prepared for the time it was going to take to smoke that thing. I just knew I wanted to get on it as soon as I felt better from my cold. I totally agree with the regular rotation, if I can find a online retailer who can get em to me quicker, and more effeciently, without drying or cracking the hell out of them its on! Thanks again man!

Great review bro! My first go round with the Ruination had me knocked back with a little shake and sweat, but like you, I found it to get smoother as I got through it. It is in my regular rotation now, but is definitely a cigar where you need to dedicate a couple hours of sitting back and chilling with it! Thanks for the review!
