purpleloki Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Just smoked a real stinker. RyJ Belicosos EAG SEP 2013. Some spice but bitter all the way through. Not any RyJ flavors at all, lousy burn....
Perla Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 LGC RE Triunfos 2010 super boring & flawless incl. tunnel burning.
Dara Posted April 20, 2015 Posted April 20, 2015 Was out with a mate on Saturday and we had 2 Cohiba Piramides Extras and ended up tossing them both after smoking first third due to no flavour whatsoever off them. Luckily he brought some punch punch with him so we had those instead and they were cracking!
bugman78629 Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 OMG...... The R&J Anejado. Purchased a 5Pk in Dec. 2014, and shared one with a Buddy; felt like throwing up!!! Awful It fools you because it looks and smells beautiful but sadly trashed it within the 10 min. mark.
subport Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Flor de las antillas toro - technically ok. Bit too lose but ok. Otherwise one dimensional and boring. Piece of s
Laxman Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 My first NC in years a davidoff special release robusto. Tossed it after less then a third. Waste if 22 bucks. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
parabola66 Posted April 23, 2015 Posted April 23, 2015 Last crap cigar was a NC. Surprisingly it was a Davidoff Millennium Bled Robusto. The aroma of the tube and the cigar was amazing, but fired it up and the whole thing tasted like burnt leaves. Sharp and just gross. It was a very strong off putting taste. First time with this cigar and definitely my last.
oljud Posted April 24, 2015 Posted April 24, 2015 CoRo MUO JUN14 the other night, plugged like nothing else, felt like sucking on a twig. Quite the dissapointment, tossed it halfway through. //M
smokenj Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 I have had a few blah cigars lately, but nothing that was absolutely horrendous.
cnwh Posted April 25, 2015 Posted April 25, 2015 NC like Balmoral, Duneran and J.cortes just to name a few. Stocked them up because of the price and then I tried the Cubans...
msm1771 Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 House blend cigars from estelli that came in bundles of 25. They're 6x60 and the owner of the store said for 2.50$ a piece you may get some bad ones. 10 smokes in and i've had 0 good ones. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

jp1979 Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Quintero brevas from the first cuban box I bought 2 years ago, found it in the bottom of the "junk" desktop and it was awful
Fosgate Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Foundry Lovelace. Had these before and was decent but the last one was way over humidified. One side refused to burn and the flavor just turned to mud after the first 1/3 and wound up being pitched early.
HarveyBoulevard Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Had an LUB MAY 14 H Upmann No.2 on Friday. It was bitter, acrid, and had a very distinct metallic taste on both the draw and aftertaste. I am sure (read as hoping) this was an anomaly. It was ROTT after a long journey. I'm going to give them a couple months to adjust then try again.
planetary Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 I bought a box of 2012 Cohiba Lanceros in the cardboard sleeve packs from another site. After 60d in my 65/65 wineador, I thought I'd attempt a sample. As I would discover over the course of a week, nearly every single one of them was terribly plugged. I think I had 2 reasonable smokes out of that pack, and hundreds of dollars of waste...
eswary Posted October 11, 2015 Posted October 11, 2015 Im not saying all Monte #2's are bad, but I can't catch a break. Each one I've had in the last 2-3 years has fell below the mark. I'm starting to feel like there is a higher power that keeps the good ones out of my grasp. I give up on them.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've never had a bad one so I know their out there!
MrGTO Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Mine was a EML JUL14 Dip #2. It just had nothing there taste wise. I am not a guy who gives up on a cigar that is not plugged or has terrible burn issues but I felt like I was wasting my time with this cigar. This box will go to the bottom of the humidor to see if they come around in a few years.
Ken Gargett Posted October 12, 2015 Posted October 12, 2015 Punch 11. strange as the rest of the box has been stellar. but this one, up on fraser island, was dirty, foul, grubby, difficult.
Shikar Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Sadly it was this weekend with one of my go to cigars, a HDM Epi 2. It. Would. Not. Draw. Smoke. Regards.
ElAbogado Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Sadly a Magnum 46 I had last week. First from a recently acquired spring 14 box. Wasn't horrible, just tasted kind of "blah" and still closed a bit. I didn't get any of the cream/honey/graham I look for in a Mag 46. Probably just need a little more time to acclimate, it had only been three weeks since I'd gotten them. Great oil sheen wrappers and fantastic aroma coming off them. So, not really a crap cigar, but not what I was expecting. Only negative experience in the last couple of weeks.
TCContender Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Punch 11. strange as the rest of the box has been stellar. but this one, up on fraser island, was dirty, foul, grubby, difficult. Funny, that is how my wife describes me half the time.... 2

I am sure (read as hoping) this was an anomaly. It was ROTT after a long journey. I'm going to give them a couple months to adjust then try again. I have a box from same factory but from April. Haven't been impressed so laying down to rest for a while.
MadMax Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 This past weekend had a '09 LE H.Up Mag 48 and a '09 LE Bolivar Petit Belicosos. Sadly I think both are way past their prime! Never thought they would fizzle out with age!
