Anyone can now rate the cigar or product on that post. You can also thumb up/down comments. Search through the review index page and rate some cigars to try it out. I'm also still looking for anyone that would like to review cigars on the site. I want to try to get back doing them but want to give others a chance to share their thoughts. Soon we will have member blogs for all.

Ever Want to Learn The Science of Cigars?

Jun 20 2009
Filed In: Stinkie's Posts

Cigar Advisor put up a nice post called The Science of Cigars: The Influence of Soil on Tobacco by Didier Houvenaghel. It is a good read and worth the time. Didier is a Belgian agricultural engineer who spent many years in Cuba studying tropical crops, specializing in black tobacco. His extensive research and knowledge of the tobacco growing and curing process led him to create Nicarao cigars, his own brand of Nicaraguan puros, now made in partnership with Rocky Patel. Didier is also the author of the book, The Cigar: From Soil to Soul.
