Flavor Wheel & Taste Calibration

[chain_gang]

@SoCal gunner this flavor wheel exercise is definitely helping me pick up stuff. May want to give it a shot before tackling the Rojas sticks.

I've been following. I do want to give this a try (at least some of them), just for the experience.
A couple flavors I pick up in some cigars that I don't see on the wheel are what I think is anise (liquorice like after taste?) and what I always call "all-spice" (maybe its clove?).

When do you think you'll hit the Rojas?

I'm ready when you are, starting next week. Very busy weekend most likely.

Take your time. Do the tastings. Write some reviews to get you in the zone. I don't think I've ever read a review by you - let's hear about those NFG, EZ and great looking sticks of yours! The writing helps big time.

I occasionally get a “floral” or herbal taste from a few cigars, and no, they aren’t infused.

I see a wood & floral section, but I don’t associate what I taste with wood. The grassy doesn’t quite encompass it either. I call that hay.

A few of these are easier for me to name than others. Cedar is easy. Reminds me of the smell I get with sawn cedar I’ve experienced repairing my deck, or more familiar, the smell produced when sharpening a wooden pencil.

This is very interesting.

Gonna have to sharpen some pencils and get a big whiff. Didn't think about that, and I didn't think I'd get to cedar, but will now. Excellent suggestion - I owe you some RG!
