haha well the cohib was the only one i could find online and the guy said tht it was definiatly a mild cigar haha but ya i looked it up and it says full bodied i was like wtf i payed 7 bucks for it idk. he also showed me tht one of the cigars had a 95 rating he had sum poster. idk if there r knock offs or wat i hope these r good i bough some for 3 bucks which was good

I don't know about that, I'd be careful trusting what that guy says.... it almost sounds like he doesn't really know what he's talking about. For $3, it's worth a shot to see if you like it...and if you do like it, then you've found yourself a good, reasonably priced cigar...and at worst, you wasted $3... not too bad a trade off if you ask me.

Big Dan

well he knew the brands and like he knew more than the other shops ive been too. i think he was hustling me tho cuz he knew i didnt kno much which would make sense. however he did give me like 50 percent off on one of the cigars and on the others he gave me a buck or two off and a nice free cutter i ended up with like five new cigars and a cutter for 28 bucks

ya idk how he messed those up however he knew the sizes and he was smoking a cigar with sum friends when i walked in he told me tht full bodied one was a great cigar and i should buy it but he also gave me the option to have the one tht was a little more on the mild side but i was looking for a medium bodied cigar. anyways good news the la romana is a montecristo , thts all ive figured out so far

phobicsquirrel:

But I do find it hard to swallow that you could confuse a mild/medium smoke with a full bodied smoke...

I kind of agree. I don't know how anyone could call a full bodied stick mild, but I do know that some people find cigars that are generally accepted as medium bodied to be more full... I suppose it all depends on a particular person's pallet how they perceive the strength of a cigar.
