Mild is the most misunderstood word in tobacco. It gets read as a synonym for simple, and it is nothing of the kind. A mild cigar has nowhere to hide: no pepper to cover a thin blend, no power to mistake for depth. Every cigar here is mild or medium, and every one of them rewards the attention most smokers save for something stronger.
