Short/Med filler cigars

After reading that post on that blade cutter it got me thinking. Is it me or do short/med fill cigars get a lot of undo bad press? I have smoked many in the past and never had "a whole bunch of bits in my mouth". Maybe a little upon clipping but nothing a quick pre-light draw wouldn't clear up. I have also seen videos of rollers who are making long filler cigars who add some short/med fill to either end to complete the size requirements. I can attest to many bad short/med filled cigars as well but I think it has more to do with the quality of the tobacco put in to it. I would buy (in a heart-beat) short/med filled cigars from many of our favorite brands (Ashton, Fuente, Oliva, Davidoff, Camacho, DPG, AJ, ect) so long as the tobacco was the same, just short/med filler and the wrapper was the same. Especially at a steep discount as it would allow me to smoke some of my favorite expensive "special occasion" cigars everyday. What are some of your thoughts on short/med filled sticks?

In fact, PM man.
Right with you. the blending is too hit and miss. I have never smoked a short fill that was consistent all the way through and some are just bad from the start. I know that many of you really like the ccom brand and that is fine but to me the short filler really lowers the quality. I have smoked several because when ordering I did not know they were short filler but if I am going to smoke a short filler King Edward would be the go to brand. I haven't smoked one of them since the early 90's.
