Cigar blends have become bolder (did you know, that back in the day the most popular cigar in the U.S. was the mild green "candela" wrapper? now, we prefer bold Tatuaje, Padron, and OpusX cigar blends). Even our cuisine has become bolder, spicier, more flavorful.

And so, it seems to me via a natural evolution, with no disrespect to history, that today's mai tai ought to be a more rum-forward blend.

Oh, oh, oh....

Did you know, that a well made candela cigar can run circles around some of the nitwit concoctions they have today?

I have been smoking cigars for 35 years and I love them dark and oily (just like my women) as well as lightly tanned and from Connecticut (sort of like me); but most of all, I like'em green, Just Like James T. Kirk!!!!!.

By the way, concur with capheind, I like my martini -well made. Only MFCS drink that SEFCLDF.

Who knew posting about tiki could be so contentious?
