A cigar's appearance speaks to the quality of the cigar. Is it smooth, rough, oily, splotchy, and/or veiny.

A cigar should be firm with some give when you gently squeeze it. The cap and wrapper should remain intact throughout the smoking experience.

Before lighting each cigar has a distinct aroma. Before lighting does the cigar entice you?

During your smoke each cigar has a distinct aroma. When smoking is there a seductive cloud of smoke and aroma?

A cigar should have a nice, clean, and even burn line at the foot of the cigar. There should be an even and firm ash develop as you smoke it. A flaky, uneven ash is messy and undesirable.

A cigar should have a steady draw of air passing through it to maintain an enjoyable smoking experience. Too loose or tight hinders the enjoyment and taste (flavor).

The foot of the cigar will smoke and the amount desired is subjective. Is the smoke on the draw creamy and light, or darker and thick?

While flavor can vary based on preference, a cigar is great, good, okay, or not my preference.

A cigar's strength is measured by the boldness of flavor and nicotine strength. Generally full-bodied, medium, or mild. The question here is does the strength and flavor balance for an enjoyable smoking experience.

The finish refers to the taste that remains on your palate between draws, and the aftertaste when done.

Complex cigars offer transitions of taste in each third of the cigar and stimulates a variety of areas of your palate.
