What Cuban you will never buy again.

I've had several RASS, young and old. I didn't care for any of them. I found them pretty flat and bland. To each his own, I guess.

He said he like JLpc :whistling:

I've had a handful of Monte #2's and each one seemed flat to me. Just not a lot of flavors. I keep hearing people say how they are some of the most popular smokes. Might be something in the flavor that just doesn't register on my tongue, dunno.

El Rey del Mundo - Lunch Club

Bought 5 a couple of years ago and three were plugged so bad I had to throw them away. :angry2:

There was this one, outside the Casa in Havana. She looked really nice, but couldn't suck a d....... Oh , you're talking about Cuban CIGARS........

Great responses guys. It seems there is no logical pattern as what has let you down. I would never put Monti #2 and RASS on this list. It appears that is hit and miss depending on the individual boxes. However, in my case I have smoked Regios and Serie A from 3 different boxes. Perhaps is just my stupid luck. I still prefer them to any NC. :laugh:

I just had a Tatuaje Pyramid, based on the suggestion of several other BOTL's. It was my first, admittedly, but it was raw tasting. Definitely the spicy Nicaraguan flavor I like, but it never seemed to smooth out... It was not an enjoyable smoke... I'm going to have to try another one later...

But the point of this story - having been a tad bit disappointed with the Tatuaje I fired up one of my SLR Serie A's from '01... Simply incredible... Still tasting it an hour later!!! :love:

You don't like the Serie A's and you're looking for a new home for 'em, please let me know!!! :thumbs:

..perhaps one thing is the RH the cigars are stored at. I was ready to write off a batch of PLPC's I got in as too plugged to smoke, but a BOTL on the boards suggested I store them closer to 60% rather than the closer to 70% which was my norm. Son of a gun if the problem didn't seem to go away after a month or so with the lower RH. Since then, I've been keeping my smoking humi at ~63% and all my smokes, ISOM or otherwise, really seem to smoke far better. Just finished off a RASS with a Dalmore and it was....wonderful.... :love:

[Eshaw99]

I can't say that I generally don't like Cuaba, because I've only smoked a handful. However, the ones I smoked didn't do much for me.

 

[Great King Rat]

Nope, these were stored around 63 to 65 RH. You are correct cigars stored at 65% smoke and taste better.

 

[OpusX_steve]

Will not buy Davidoffs again.

[snapback]297202[/snapback]​

i got some no 1's that are the most forgetable smokes.

 

[vudu9]

IMHO, there are several, but the one that consistently comes to mind across the board is Cohiba. Too grassy, bitter and acrid, especially down to the last 3rd of the smoke. I'm pretty much done experimenting with Cuba.

My fav's;

Vegas Robaina - all sizes
Ramon Allones - most sizes
Bolivar - all sizes.

...A few others I could throw in as well, I'm sure.

When I saw the title of this thread, that's what came to my mind. I've had about 3 or 4 that did nothing for me. They are one of the most beautifully rolled cigars I've ever smoked. They look and feel perfect. It hurts me that there is no flavor.

 

[Life's Drives]

The La Flor de Cano Predilecto (en tubos) was among the first cigars I ever tried but I couldn't find them anymore. It was great but I had only that lonely one. I thought I'd give other Flor de Canos a try so I picked up a few Selectos....man what a different experience. They were very hard to draw and very flavourless. I'll never buy those again, it was like burning money.
