Product review (5 stars): I like everything about this book
Definitely 5 stars.  I like everything about this book.  The size and weight of the book are perfect for what you'd want from a coffee table book on cigars.  Even the particular stock of the paper even gives it a rustic sophistication, again, matching what you'd expect from a cigar.  It is well written with plenty of substantive content on the production and appreciation of cigars (as opposed to blurb style content more fitting for an online lifestyle magazine.)  The photography is smartly done in its consistent style of large, numerous, richly detailed photos that, at the same time, are not over-stylized but still create a strong sense of immersion as you read through it.  The focus is primarily on the growth and assembly of cigars from their major production regions, and not so much on any particular brand or marketing of cigars, though it touches on everything to a degree.  I definitely recommend this.
