Many cigars will actually change flavor as you smoke them, you will notice. This is why many reviews that you read will describe it in terms of 1st, 2nd and 3rd third.

Tomorrow while I brew a Belgian wit in the garage I'll be smoking a Oliva V lancero. Love 'em!

Yup. Often referred to as the "finish". A cigar having a finish when smoked to about 75% of the way down is one of the main qualities I like best.

Also I like a cigar with "tooth". This is the showing of very tiny bumps - less than the size of a pin head - near the burning tip. It indicates the presence of tobacco oils in the wrapper; something that carries the flavor for a cigar.

Been into good cigars for many years. After dinner a nice Macanudo Crystal or Hampton Court is very soothing. Goes well with some nice bourbon also. I smoked many real Cubans over the years and some were very nice and others very strong to the point of getting nausious after/during smoking. I started with Thompson Cigar Co and they still have decent deals. I usually just keep a small cup of water in my humidor which I check on every few months. Pretty low maintainance. Keeps humidity level in right range.
