Cigar descriptive lingo

[hawkan2580]

Thanks for your kind words guys!:smt058


I also don't make any corrolation between the amount of nicotine precent or not with the Twang... a cigar can be very mild but still have tons of twang and vice verse.....

Twang is ..hmm.. cuban :smile:

if it isnt cuban.. it doesnt have twang ... and if it is.. it has it to various degrees

Wow,
That pretty much sums it up.

Frog's Eyes.

What are they in relation to cigars (I actually went back and deleted the question mark and added the last part of that sentence...I don't trust you guys!)?

I used strength to refer to the amount of nicotene.
Twang is a specific flavor in Cubans.

Que? Sorry mate, I been trying to understand your post but simply can't *laughs* no slaint on you though.. with English as a 4th language, the "fault" is probably on my part for not understanding...

what do you mean with Frog's eyes? and what are you referring to with they in the next sentence?

I don't think it's just you man. English is my 1st (and only) language and I still have no idea what he's talking about. :smt043

We can probably skip the definition of "dog rocket."

Wow...english is your 4th language?
You seem to have a good grasp of it. You must do real well with the other 3.

I am fluent in the other ones.. trying with the English... having lived here in OZ for almost 7 years now certainly helps but there are still a long way to go before I would call myself fully fluent...recently, I tried reading some philosophy in English.. with a very low successrate in terms of understanding.. but then again.. due to the subject matter of metaphysics.. who knows if I would have understood it anymore in Swedish haha

Sorry folks! :lol: I've heard folks refer to "frog eyes" when describing the appearance of cigars. I figure it refers to spots on the cigar.
