List the worst cigar(s) you’ve ever had

[rectifythis]

We’ve done this before, but let’s do it again; just for fun.

We’ve all had those delicious cigars that we don’t ever want to end and cannot wait to take the next puff. However, we’ve all also had the cigar that you cannot wait until it ends and dread taking every puff. What is yours?

Let’s say name at least your worst and maybe list up to five.

Go!




Per rectifythis in no particular order:

1. Leon Jimenes Sumo
2. Rocky Patel Fusion
3. Arturo Fuente King B
4. Top Shelf Suave
5. The Fauxhiba I recently reviewed

Dishonorable mention: Most low end habanos such as Guantanamera, Quai Dorsay and Vegueros.

 

[bfisher88]

Gurkha Doble Maduro

 

[Nimrod]

Indian Tabac Super Fuerte maduro

 

[Ginseng]

Dishonorable mention: Most low end habanos such as Guantanamera, Quai Dorsay and Vegueros.

Say whaaaaaaaaaat?!? ???

QdO is most definitely not in the same class as Guantanamera and Vegueros.

1. Pirate's Gold
2. 5 Vegas Gold
3. NC RyJ No. 2 tubos

Wilkey

 

[MadMonk]

Oh my!
I've tried a slew of cigars, and do not like most of what is available on todays market.
I'll list the first few that come to mind.

Non Cuban:
Montecristo
Romeo y Julieta
Last generation Perdomo

 

[boonedoggle]

Opus X.

[amateuraficionado]

Anything Patel!

 

[CigarStone]

Don Pepin Garcia Black Belicoso.

My reaction upon lighting it was so animated my son cracked up laughing, he tried it and had the same reaction. It was as if someone shocked me on the lips.

 

[medic5888]

1. CAO America
2. Perdomo (red label cabinet series forgive me I forgot the real name)
3. Aroma De Cuba

Maybe not so much the cigar, but I tried to smoke an LGC Serie R outside, in Michigan this February.

It was about 15 degrees in the sun at the time. So, needless to say, any little bit of spit that got on the stick froze the instant I took it out of my mouth. I gave up on it because it was so plugged with ice-saliva it felt like trying to breathe in a plastic bag.

 

[Bsneed51]

CI Legends Rocky Patel
5 Vegas Gold

 

[rectifythis]

1. CAO America

Oooh, that's a good one to mention.

 

[HenrysCigar]

I can agree with the 5 Vegas Gold.
Just smoked one and did not have a good time with it.
I can say, that this is the worst stick I've had since my recent start.

 

[BIG AL74]

Felipe Gregorio Icon.

 

[tsmckenney]

1. Camacho anything, with exception to the SLR maduros.
2. NC Sancho Panza
3. NC Montes, with exception to the Serie C
4. Connie 9 (Honduras blend), I like the Dominican blend
5. NC Punch anything

Pretty much any NC with a stolen Cuban brand name, they suck it.

 

[TRP72]

Wow, I'm surprised to see some of the ones listed on here. The worst I've had were:

Indian Tabac Super Fuerte Maduro
Gurkha Connecticut Reserve Robusto
Felipe Dominicana T (definitely the worst!)

I guess that's what I get for buying a "first-class" premium sampler from CI. I've since learned. It's all about Oliva Serie V...mmmm.

[sack]

Any Thompson's house brand!

 

[moki]

Lars Teten something or other

Several Drew Estates monstrosities

A number of highly detestable Cuban Montecristos

...and many other cigars that are too numerous to mention.

 

[MocoBird]

I have to agree with this statement...

Pretty much any NC with a stolen Cuban brand name, they suck it.

...and the NC Monte Platinum's, they suck it big time!
