Someone who likes cigars please explain something to me. Why would someone spend $1500 on 1 single cigar?
Background: I have a Social Media client that is a high-end cigar shop (I do all their social media stuff for them). I don't get cigars... let alone the cost for some of these.
I need to be able to market these things but can't find good ways to describe them for ads.
Cigars are a wonderful vice for me, though I do not smoke more than 1 a month (usually less). I enjoy them when I can. Think of having a cigar as adding another row of violins to an orchestra when you're sitting in your back yard, working on your motorcycle, or doing anything else you enjoy, complementing the rest of the orchestra that you're already listening to.
Personally, I do not spend anything on cigars any more; I have too many (more than 300 in my humidor). There's enough to last me the rest of my life, most likely. Expensive cigars are in my humidor, just like the cheap ones, and they're all different, just like comparing an expensive whiskey with a cheap one. Sure, I'll probably reach for my favorite Nub Maduro cigar every time, but if I've got friends over or someone who really enjoys cigars, I may get out the rarer Oliva V Torpedoes that have a couple years of age on them. Maybe I'm celebrating a new job and want to go with a cigar that's not supposed to be in my humidor - a Cuban Cohiba or Montecristo. In any case, the choice of what you're smoking and when is all very personal and may be as simple as something you really, really like and can enjoy any time.
Thank you! that helps guys!

I've found that up to a certain point the more expensive the cigar the "smoother" the flavor. Cheap cigars generally have a bit of a bite to them that you don't get with the more expensive variety.

Good to know.... So hard for me to learn to describe something when I am NOT testing it out

Out for a walk.

Not a connoisseur by any stretch or means that's just been my limited experience.

Details matter. You didn't say from this morning, you just said morning walk. The most is implies currently is morning and you're out for a walk.

165 wasn't the server temps, that was the AIR TEMP.
Then your servers were probably 200 or better. Talk about a beast!

Back to the never-ending documentation project grind.

You should check out the one in Newark, it's the biggest in the US.
