Do you like vanilla-flavored cigars?

Do you like vanilla-flavored cigars? At Rupiani's, we think vanilla-flavored cigars are a choice for amateurs who lack sophistication and have little understanding of cigar flavors. Let's explore some of the reasons why that's so:

1. Artificial Flavors: Many vanilla-flavored cigars use artificial flavorings or additives to give the cigar its taste, which can be seen as a shortcut to flavor complexity. This contrasts with traditional cigars, where the flavor profile is developed naturally through the tobacco itself, aging, and the blending process.

2. Less Complexity: Cigar connoisseurs tend to appreciate the depth and variety of flavors that come from high-quality tobacco blends. Vanilla-flavored cigars often provide a single-note sweetness that masks the natural characteristics of the tobacco, making them less complex and less interesting to more experienced smokers.

3. Appeal to New Smokers: Vanilla flavor can be more approachable for newcomers because it's sweet and familiar. The sweetness can help mask the sometimes harsh or intense taste of tobacco, making it easier for a beginner to enjoy. However, seasoned smokers may feel that it oversimplifies the experience.

4. Perception of Low Quality: Many flavored cigars, including vanilla, are often marketed as entry-level products, which can contribute to the idea that they are for less experienced smokers. These cigars are often mass-produced and can be seen as less premium compared to traditional, well-crafted cigars.

5. Lack of Craftsmanship: Traditional cigars require a high level of skill in blending and rolling, while flavored cigars, particularly vanilla ones, may not involve the same level of craftsmanship. The flavor often comes from external additives rather than the natural complexity of the tobacco itself.

We at Rupiani's are cigar aficionados who prioritize tobacco quality, flavor complexity, and the traditional smoking experience. If you're a vanilla-flavored-cigar-type-of-guy, then we'll refer to you as a newbie. We hope that as you gain experience and develop your palate, you'll move on to more complex, unflavored, and traditional cigars.
