El Presidente Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Which marque from the following do you dislike the most? Just one. Let us know on the poll and if you have a moment, let us know why? Yes...there is a reason for this poll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnS Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Bolivar. The reason? I don't connect with the 'earthiness' in this marca. However, I don't mind a BBF or a Bolivar Tubos No.1 from time-to-time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SigmundChurchill Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I said Punch. But I like all of the choices to differing degrees. Of these choices, I wouldn’t even say I dislike Punch the most, as much as I would say that I like it the least. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookie Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 HDM for me....though sometimes I get wonderful stone fruits, most of the time I get blandness (which is what must be cream for many) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fitzy Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I just don’t enjoy the taste profile of Montecristo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post nKostyan Posted August 28, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted August 28, 2019 Cohiba- is too overrated and overpriced brand. If Cohiba appears in my humidor, I try to smoke it out faster, so that it does not catch my eye and does not annoy me. I fight it, but it keeps coming back 6 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
inter4alia Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Monte with Hoyo a close second. I've tried most Monte regular production vitolas several times over and it's shocking how few resonate with me. Seriously inconsistent construction and flavor, but get a great one and it's glorious. Just far too few fall into that category. I'm just not willing to buy box after box only to get a few cracker sticks. Apart from a box of Especial No 2 here and there, no more coin from me for this marca. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thirds Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Upmann - because I can’t taste what others are tasting in this marca. It just comes out as woody smoke. Although I had an HUHC this week that was exceptional. First Upmann where the flavors were detectable for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
99call Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Cohiba.....like being licked by kittens. Never feel like i've had a cigar after a Cohiba . Medio Siglo and Piramides Extra get a pass, as they've got some guts. Trinidad and Quai D'orsay are my premium light bodied smokes, as they have rounded out complete blends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrairieSmoke Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Monte — not that I haven’t had good ones before, just underwhelming considering the vast array of options in the marca. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbflash80 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I voted RYJ but its a case where I like all of these...heck, I keep a decent supply of wide chirchills on hand at all times.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puros Y Vino Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I voted Bolivar. I don't hate it per se'. It's just that I don't find a lot of cigars in this marca I do love. I'm a huge fan of the BGM. But that's limited and long since gone. I enjoy BBF's, but I don't find myself going out of the way to stock up on them. I do have an old box of Vintage BCE's and consider them to be the pinnacle of the brand. So, from that list. Bolivar for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrouchoMarx Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Picked bolivar. BBF's aren't a BAD cigar - just what I consider "below middle of the road" overall. Given a choice from that list, it would be my last choice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Astar20 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Bolivar for me only the BBF has a decent flavor profile all the other vitolas taste like a scoop of wet dirt in my mouth very one dimensional and underwhelming. I'm trying to smoke through them as fast as I can. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FatPete Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I voted Upmann, not because I dislike it (hell my inventory tells me I've got more Upmann than anything else) but I don't like any of the Magnum series. Of the other marcas listed, I'm happy to smoke just about anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tstew75 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I wish QDO was on the list lol. Going with RyJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Nekhyludov Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I went with Cohiba, only because of the recent price increases. The cost of Cohiba has become absurd, and it just isn't possible to justify anymore. I don't foresee ever buying them again. I've got half a box each of '14 CORO and '15 Esplendido, and when those are gone, I'm likely done with Cohiba. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alloy Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I voted HDM. Except for the Des Dieux, they just don't do it for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buck14 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Montecristo is easily #1 for me - just too many nondescript sticks. No flavor at all. Especiales are an exception. At #2 is Bolivar as the most overrated Marca bar none. The only current regular production I like are 4-5 year old Royal Coronas and even then they are far down the list of my favorite Robustos / Hermoso #4s frequently smoked vitolas. BBFs are terrible. Romeo y Julieta is #3 but I absolutely love the Cazadores and Wide Churchills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CampDelta369 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Punch for me, in my extremely limited CC experience with all these different marcas. It’s just that it has no representation right now in my humidor. Punch Punch is a good cigar but less than medium for me. I hope to try that 48 one day but I rarely have a DC. Again I Don't dislike any of them, it’s just low on the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
