I wanted to look up the Diplomax, the Opux Chateau, and the Anjo that are in todays threads. Where do you all go to look up a cigar, its rating, taste test, etc?.
 
I usually just ask around for opinions and reviews from fellow smokers. You can pay to subscribe to cigar insider magazine which is an online publication at http://www.cigaraficionado.com and that will get you access to their ratings and tasting database, but it depends on how much faith you put in their ratings. My experience has always been to try to identify a few guys on forums that have a similar palate and like the the same stuff you do. Then compare notes. For example, Axe and I have fairly similar tastes so I usually follow his suggestions.
 
Thanks. Ive been to the free side of CA insider. It was ok but not great enough to pay for it. I just hate to keep asking stupid questions (I ask enough already) The Diplomax Chris is taliking about. i was looking for a place that could tell me the ring and length, what kind of flavors to expect etc. I guess I'll just torcher you guys :D :D :D with those questions.

You got to spell them right first.... :lol: JK
 
If you are looking for info on Opus X and Anejo's that can be found at http://www.cigarfamily.com. Goto the cigar lounge at CF and there is a lot of good info there.

Just make sure you are wearing your bullet proof vest before walking into that forum. If you look at someone funny in there they tear you apart.
 
Macallan, there are a ton of great people over at Cigar Family and they welcome newbies as well as any other cigars site. Yes if a newbie comes in with an attitude they will get their balls busted, but that is pretty much the same at any other cigar site I have been to.

a place I go to check out almost every cigar you read about here and many others

http://www.top25cigar.com/reviewdatabas ... s&pkID=752

I use it for looking up all sticks i'm interested in

I also check that site too. But for me, the best way to judge a cigar is to try it yourself. What may taste like poo poo to one person may taste like filet minon to another.
 
I like to use sites like CA to get info on the wrapper, binder and filler (I write this kind of stuff in my cigar journal.)
 
Sorry about the spelling, I spell terrible. Usually I ask my 8 year old after the spell check laughs at me, but she was in bed at the time.
