It's difficult for Americans to judge, since Cuban cigars, as well as other Cuban products, are illegal in the United States and have been since the Cuban embargo in 1962.

Try something new. Variety is the spice of life. If you've only really smoked mild cigars up till now, buy yourself a cigar sampler of strong, bold-tasting claries from several different premium cigar makers. If, on the other hand, for you the only good cigar is a rank and overpowering one, try something a bit lighter. Challenge your taste buds to appreciate--and your brain to notice tastes that are outside your normal range. (Remember, taste is as much a matter of imagination as it is of raw sensation. And there are lots of other ways to vary things up: try a different brand (or several different brands); smoke a cigar of a size you're not used to (a Churchill instead of a cigarillo, or the other way around); try smoking with food, coffee or alcohol if you haven't yet (bold, simple tastes are best-dry cheese being an excellent choice) etc.
