List some of the (handmade) cigars that were either disappointing or down right awful. I'm not talking gas station sticks here.

    Honestly, the Sol Cubano Cuban Cabinet and the Gurkha Blue Steel.

    If you have any more Cuban Cabinet's lying around, I'll take them off your hands! :)

    So I've had two Casa Magnas now, and hated both of them. I have no intention of buying another. If I got one in a trade, I suppose I would give it a try again, but I'm not spending $7 on that again. I can't really think of anything recently that I've really hated other than those.

    I agree fully with the Cuban Cabinet. Some others for me would be anything Graycliff, Macanudo, or CAO.

    Acid cigars other than the Natural.

    A Bucanero Red... If I happen across one I toss it...

    Mine would be Acid cigars. They are gross, IMO.

    Danli Reserve for me. One of the worst cigars I have ever had.

    Any Helix ...

    Oliva Master Blends ....... got sick to my stomach afterwards ...... just the whole time smokin it, i was like iam not a big fan of this cigar, the taste wasnt anything spectacular and man did it ever leave a bad taste in my mouth, after tryin to get rid of the taste with some water, my stomach was like " hell no evactuate " and called a dinosaur ....... 5 minutes later i felt fine but still had a nasty taste , overall i was disappointed since i really enjoy the majority of oliva's i've smoked. P.S. that was tonite

    Erin go Blah. Hands down the most disgusting cigar I've had the displeasure of smoking.
  • alienmisprintalienmisprint Posts: 3,964 ✭✭✭
    Perdomo Fresco Maduro, tasted like burnt plastic.
  • HaysHays Posts: 2,337 ✭✭✭
    Acid Kuba Kuba, and now I'm wary of anything Acid... that thing tasted like literal fruity acid in my mouth.

    Helix for sure. Send me all the Gurkhas that you hate. Let me suffer so you don't have to. I was really wanting to get ahold of a Blue Steel.
  • alienmisprintalienmisprint Posts: 3,964 ✭✭✭
    You know, I got a Helix Maduro in a set of mystery sticks from Goldy a while back and it was actually pretty good. Very unique, but something I wouldn't mind smoking again. Dunno about the connies.

    I'll take these off your hands haha. When I first started buying online I got a 5 pack of Danli and enjoyed them, that was maybe 3 years ago. Duque, Fighting ***, Free Cuba are far worse imo.

    Same cigar joe said, Erin Go Braugh, the sweetened cap had turned to dust, the whiskey was gross and overall, it smelled like a janitor's mop bucket.

    I really did not like the 5 Vegas Relic. I had a Maria Mancini the other day and I hated it. Wasn't fond of the Maker's Mark either. I also hated the Ccom Cameroon Label which was the only house blend I disliked.

    If you don't like the Gurkha Sherpa's, I'll take em off your hands. Those are one of my favs.

    I had a Sol Cubano CC the other day and it was aweful! hopefully it was just a bad stick, I guess I'll know in about a month or two when they have time to rest even longer.
  • j0z3rj0z3r Posts: 9,403 ✭✭
    I'm honestly surprised at all the mention of the SC CC on here. I know we all have different tastes and such, but it is completely beyond me how anyone can think it's a bad cigar. I've never had trouble with one and I've smoked quite a few, the taste has always been spot on as well. Oh well, more for me. :)

    Although Urby would fight me on this, but he hasn't been around since Bush, I'll say Nestore Reserve... I've had some good, and some downright bad... The good ones I've shared here, the bad, are underneath someone's deck right now!

    Anything Ghurka, can't stand those damn things.

    The worst ones for me, were the Oneoff...left a surprisingly bad taste that I couldn't get rid of. And please do yourself a favor, and never try a Tatianna Mocha...PUTRID.
  • bacon.jaybacon.jay Posts: 720 ✭✭✭
    CAO Black and Macanudo maduro. Never again, I hated them both. Also not a big fan of Punch cigars.
  • GoldyGoldy Posts: 1,638 ✭✭
    Send me all your Helixes. Or would that be Helixi.

    My worst would have to be a gurkha rare breed or a padilla obsidian.

    The Rocky Patel R4, it was awful.
