Nice Ashes: Cigars and Culture

Rico Barato Maduro Torpedo: Ratings


Listen Later

Join Mike and Nate on this episode of Nice Ashes as they indulge in the Rico Barato Torpedo Maduro. They dive into their initial impressions of the cigar, discussing its troublesome construction and unexpected flavors, including a few unfortunate construction defects that lead to some humorous moments.

As they light up, the discussion shifts from cigars to the ever-controversial topic of cigar ratings, particularly how Cigar Aficionado evaluates different smokes. Mike and Nate explore the subjective nature of cigar tasting, how the industry’s rating systems might not always serve consumers well, and the peculiarities of reviews in today's media landscape, including movies and products. 

Expect some laugh-out-loud moments as they critique not only the cigar at hand but the entire culture of ratings, from the quirks of professional reviewers to the unreliability of user-submitted feedback.

Grab a smoke and tune in to hear their candid thoughts, learn about their experiences, and join the conversation on the complexities of tasting and rating cigars! Don’t forget to check out their Instagram for visuals and updates, and consider supporting their Patreon for bonus content and more.
