Ok, we've all smoked a stick or two that we thought wasn't worthy of being on this planet, let alone even being called a cigar. Whether everyone that has ever smoked it hated it, or it just wasn't to your individual liking. I'll check my log when I get home to give you a dud or two of my own. So what are your nominations? |
Oh you know how to pick a topic that could wind up to be a nasty flaming war...  My pick: 1) Any flavored cigars, basically CAO, Drew Estate, and Kaluha flavored cigars 2) Fake Cuban cigars, especially the Cohiba Churchill a friend of mine (no ideas what is cigar), gave me. Two puffs, and into the charcoal grill it went 3) JR Alternatives, or other no name brands |
Even though The Edge Corojo is a favorite of mine, I don't care for almost everything else I have tried from him. 90', '92' are terrible, and the Fusion Double Maduro is nothing to write home about. ETA- For a mild stick, his Connecticut is not bad, although I prefer Med-Full |

this thread is worthless if you don't explain WHY the cigar is bad. just i don't like "X" tells us nothing. for example:montecristo white is shit... how about: the montecristo white has no flavor. i like maduro cigar and was handed one of these at a party and there is just nothing there. it's like white bread. no flavor or substance. i woudl recommend it to a smoker who was just staring out or wanted a mild flavor but if you like rich full cigars this is not it. |
I had the same feeling when I smoked it on the 4th of July. I thought maybe I was just too drunk. Got another one aging and am willing to give it another try. |

Pretty much anything by Victor Sinclair (The bohemians especially). Tastes acrid and burn like sh!t El mejor espresso. Totally one dimensional NC cubans (Cohibas especially). Also totally one dimensional. Ashton ESG. A $20+ stick it's NOT. I'd pay no more than $8 for it. Not saying it's bad, but certainly not the super premium they make it out to be. |
For me it has to be the Monsenor from Finickcigar co.  I was just getting into cigars and saw it "Monsenor Our top selling Honduran value-priced cigars! What a joke. whoever like those likes ASS tasting!! Glad I stuck with it and found some I liked good thing I had some good sticks before I tried that crap.
Never some one of the sticks in the pic above!!! |

If you look at the review thread it will become apparent that RATTERS is the one who likes smoking dog rockets and then reviewing them. Hmmm....that's a thought

1. Alec Bradley. All of them. 2. Damn near everything made by Rocky Patel Reg Holy Moly.... This just goes to show you that each person has individual tastes for things. Send me all the ones you don't want :) no kidding, I'll take the leftovers . I've not had a rocky that I didn't like . the OWR's and edge maduros are some of my favorites now the Caridad Sumatra that my brother in law gave me tasted like it had dog hair in it . the rolly's that he smokes all the time have that stale air mixed with newspaper tatse to them . |

Ain't no leftovers cause I wont buy the stinking turds. Although I have to file this under "Even a blind pig finds an acorn every now and then" in the interest of fairness: The RP Renaissance is a damn fine cigar. |
