sightunseen: Kamelyon: sightunseen: Urban Legend #1: Darker cigars indicate a higher strength. Not necessarily. Darker cigars (like maduros) simply indicate that the wrapper has gone under additional fermentation, which results in a darker color. The body of a cigar is determined mostly by its filler. I agree with this, but would like to know how many maduro cigars that you have smoked that were not at least medium-full? And if there is a secret underground society of mild maduro cigars, let me know! I've had the Cu-Avana Maduro, which was a mild cigar. In fact, it was a bit too mild for my tastes. You're right about the underground society, you just need to know the secret handshake.

nightmaremike31:bbc, you're like lightning man! Don't forget the full body shots!!
Hawk55:Still surprised that noone has asked for these to be sent for evaluation...(usually if someone has a problem cigar...someone will ask them to jokingly ask for it to be sent to them for a second opinion...)
