Hey, guys.

I'm new to cigars but have noticed that I really like the cigars that are spicy(Peppery), nutty, and has the taste of raisins. Problem is i bought so many random ones i can't remember the ones I like so i figured I'd ask if anyone knows any good cigars that contain any of these 3. It doesn't have to have all 3. I'm find if it's just all nutty, spicy, or have notes of raisins. All recommendations are welcomed. Thanks in advance.

That’s why noobs should keep notes (unless you have a photographic memory).
It will help prevent, or at least reduce, the “noob trap”, that 90% of free range noobs fall into……..about 10% of noobs are lucky enough/smart enough to be mentored by someone experienced.

So, what is this noob trap?
Kinda goes like this:

Noob discovers cigars…
Noob likes cigars…
Noob discovers cigar auction sites and other online retailers….
Noob goes crazy and starts buying up fivers, bundles, boxes……….(the prices are INSANELY great compared to his shpo)…
Noob now has two desktops, two coolers, and a tupperdore…………and 500+ cigars…

And then….

Noob’s palate evolves…
Noob realizes he has about 300 cigars he will probably never smoke……………….the “noob trap”.

Good call.
Spicy and raisins for sure, along with other dark notes.

The Macanudo Cafe is a bit nutty and toasty and so is the Montecristo Condé. Neither cigar is very strong though.

Hey Jorge, yes I got a 5 pack of the Inspirado White Robusto and I enjoyed them. Mac is indeed a consistent cigar and that is important to me. Mac has a good reputation in my book.
