This explosion of flavors is not to confuse, but to satisfy a particular taste that, you as consumer like as that favorite as a commodity. There are purists that explain a flavored cigar will do some harm to the palate. We can think of the many food tastes we enjoy, which may never have an effect on future food enjoyment.
