Maybe the CEO is a graduate of the Starbucks School of Brand
Management....

That may be so, but the presentation of many looks very good, good
enough to try some.

I quite like the latest post:
<URL: http://zencigar.wordpress.com/
or (for when the site owner sorts out the link):
<URL: http://zencigar.wordpress.com/2009/05/01/habanos-edicion-regionales-2009-list/
I think that's quite an interesting list. I'd be tempted to contact
vendors in certain territories to pre-order a box or two - but budget is
lacking just now.
The site looks like it has a lot that is of interest, thanks for the
link, Alex.
Justin.

I loved his introduction:
"I have a disability. I love cigars too much. I like to
try everything. And I mean everything. No cigar goes
untasted. Currently I have tried over 2200 cigars (that’s
different brands and sizes) and show no signs of slowing
down. I catalog my cigars (part of an obviously apparent
OCD), what I have tried and how much I have enjoyed them. I
like cigars from all countries, especially from that tiny
little island south of us. I love to talk cigars, ask
the guys from my local shop, Empire Cigars (I’m sure they’d
rather I stay away).
I label every cigar that comes into my house with a date
placed in humidification. My cataloging includes not just a
huge Excel spreadsheet but a cigar journal and now this
blog. I need professional help. Seriously.
I’ve been smoking cigars for most of my adult life and it
really has become a passion. And it’s a passion I want to
share with you. That’s right, you, the guy/gal sitting
there reading this and at the same time thinking about which
cigar to have tomorrow after work.
Remember, life is too short to smoke bad cigars (but not to
short to at least try them)."
Good enough to warrant inclusion in the FAQ. A veritable
aficionado's manifesto!

Oh to read that list and those tasting notes! :-) Thanks! Like you,
Alex, I will try any cigar (part of the life experience), but sadly
haven't kept good notes. Fortunately, I have a good enough memory
(knock on wood) that I don't repeat most of my mistakes.
