Machine made cigars are not that cool
Maybe initially when they were getting into smoking they might have tried it but Machine made cigars and Cuban cigars are two completely different things. If you’ve had a Cuban cigar before, you are probably nodding your head in agreement with this statement right now. So I’ll try to answer why people compare Cuban cigars and machine rolled cigars together sometimes.
Now I know you are thinking what is wrong with that? Nothing is wrong with it, it’s just nothing compared to a Cuban cigar. Some people think it is a great way of getting into the genre but you know what? It is not that bad either. It all depends on what your preference is. As a Cuban cigar smoker, I stay aware from them.
Man made construction of Cuban cigars is an art on it’s own. If you watch a cigar roller roll a cigar, it will blow your mind. As for machine made cigars, I can have a cigar machine at home that could be pumping machine made cigars by the thousands like a crappy cigarette. Another major difference between a machine made cheap cigar and an authentic hand rolled Cuban cigar.
One final difference is when you light the Cuban cigar up and the aroma and the taste that is unleashed simply cannot be matched. This is the same taste that has taken centuries to perfect, it is literally like smelling heaven. Plus when you light up a machine rolled cigar, it’s like lighting up a cigarette you bought from seven eleven at about 11pm when you were getting to ready to go to the club.
I hope this has cleared any misconceptions about the difference between Cuban cigars and machine rolled cigars. The difference is everything but in particular it is the taste, the construction and the quality. Yes those three things make up a real Cuban cigar and anyone who has smoked them or is a regular enthusiast knows what a Cuban cigar is all about.A Cuban cigar is like a Ferrari and a machine rolled cigar is like a donkey drawn carriage with only one wheel that actually works.
