Camacho Triple Maduro, Casa Magna, Nub. Back in July I smoked my first and last of these brands. Too many good cigars out there to waste time and money on terrible cigars.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Jes, pleeeease do me a favor: Take a Casa Magna Colorado Robusto and let it sit in a humi for a month and re-visit it. I say this because I was in Birmingham visiting one of the shops and the manager sat in the back with me and gave me the new #1 cigar of the year- this same one in question. We sat there and smoked and smoked as he raved about how much he loved it and I simply looked at him and told him I hated it. I was serious.

Now? I think it's a phenomenal cigar! You may still hate it, but I've noticed over time that I can never fall in love or hate a cigar after the first one....I need a cross-section of the same cigar over time and in a consistent environment to give a good judgement.

If you need another one to try, let me know and I'll be happy to offer one of mine! :ss

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

It's a chase down between an Acid Blondie and the Bahia Bleu rot gut that my brother-in-law traumatized me with this spring.

And I agree that Casa Magnas are great sticks. I've not had a bad one yet.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Ok, I'll pick up a Casa Magna soon and let it sit for a while. I'll try to remember to post on this thread when I smoke it. I probably shouldn't have been so quick to judge these. I have a few cigars that I really enjoy and when I have recommended them to friends they haven't enjoyed them as much as I do. Everybody's got their own taste preferences. But I will give the CM another shot.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

whatever the hell the one and only gurkha was that i smoked a few years back. tasted like dry dirt. honestly don't know why i even smoked it, but i wanted to give the brand a fair shake. never again...

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Pirates Gold from CI. I keep trying what I have occasionally as a yard gar, but it doesn't get any better. Gives me a headache. I keep looking for someone who'll smoke anything to give them to.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

El Mejor Emerald.
Part of one of my first purchases from CI.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Thompson Uniques.

I had ordered a box of Alec Bradley Harvest and they sent me a pack of the Thompson Uniques for free. Forget what exactly the deal was.

However without a doubt the worst things I ever had the misfortune to light.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Alcazar #5. My friend and I went golfing on my birthday and he gave it to me to smoke (without the caution sticker that is the band). It is important to note that my friend is an ass.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

One and only hardly seems like a fair shake. Hell they put out a new one every other day. I kid, I like some Gurkhas. Triple Ligeros are pretty damn good. My worst was La Cuna Habano Churchill. Got cheap on Cbid, would pay more to give them back.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

I'm convinced that the Gurkhas found at B&Ms are completely different than the ones whored out online at "83% off MSRP." If I remember correctly, the rep once indicated that it's almost as if Gurkha 'seconds' are what sells online, with their better stuff going to local retailers. I can honestly say that the Gurkhas I've tried from my B&M are FAR better than the ones I've purchased online. They're still overpriced, though.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Worst was a Puros Indios figurado. Tasted like hay and salt. Seriously. Just awful.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Good call on the hay. :tpd:

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

My worst so far was some kind of ACID. I think they have one called Nasty, appropriate I'd say.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Believe it or not but the worst cigar I have had in a while was the Tat Outlaw. First Tat that I didn't care for and it really shocked me. I fought putting it down but in the end she was put down before her time. Even the aroma from the smoke was unpleasant to me. It could have been a bunk stick as it was my first but I am in no hurry to try another.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Guantamera Cristales are pretty bad... It's like smoking a thick brown cigarette with no flavor at all.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

:tpd:

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Carlos Torano Casa Torano. The first cigar I can remember not even getting through the first 1/3 before giving up. Maybe I got a bad one. The Exodus wasn't as bad but it has turned me off of CT.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Bahia Blu...........

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

JR's "Replica" cigars. They have one that is suppose to taste like a Fuente, etc...

My Lord was that a horrible cigar. I would not let Osama Bin Laden smoke that. How could anyone fancy cigars if they were offered that as cigar?

I'll take a Backwoods Cherut over that.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?

Perdomo Lot 23 nat. (maduros are almost OK)
CAO

Chemyst :cool2:

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

i thought it was common knowledge that B&Ms get the better stuff - the onlines get the mediocre? seems like there might have been a thread about this at one time...

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Villar y Villar and La Primadora - equally crappy.

Worst hyped cigar IMO - Macanudo Maduro (Hyde Park I think).

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Bringing it back from the dead..

A few I really can't stand..

-5 Vegas(haven't had one I care for yet)
-Final Blend
-Indian Tabac Maduro
-Oliva(Still not one I care for at all!)
-VS(had a huge sampler, 8 inchers, Most were bad. Still sitting in the cooler.. I give those to the bum buddies I have who know no difference.)

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Tie for me between Ashton Aged Maduros(licking an ashtray would have tasted better) and Zino Platinum Z Classes(the first inch has more ammonia in it than the bottle my roommate keeps for housecleaning)

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Gurkha Triple Black!!!!!

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

The fact that I've SEVERAL good cigars in this thread, including my all time favorite, saddens me.

But 2:

"Mexican Segundo"
Consuegra

Yick.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

It's been a few years, but I had a Lone Wolf that was God awful.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Puros Indios, Gurkha European Selection & "The Brick"

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

The worst cigar i've had is a monte purito. Tasted like burnt hair.

macanudo court. had flavors of harsh chemicals, snake venom, diesel fuel, and blown transistors

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Room 101 Nakamubi (or whatever they call it). I have 4 left and I'm gonna donate them to the Salvation Army along with my old clothes. Tastes like, um.... smoke.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Original Release Padilla Miami. Guys absolutely raved on them, and I was a Padilla fanboy at the time.
It was the most disgusting, vile thing I've ever smoked, by a longshot. (And I've smoked a sh1t ton of really bad cigars over the years.)

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Cuba Libre is pretty bad.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

I've seen this a lot in this thread.. I have been curious to try the Cuba Libre One, maybe not now...

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

The Cuba Libre One has been spoken of fairly highly as a bargain smoke. Never personally had one, but I have had the Cuba Libre...not good, not good at all.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Palma Real!

Tasted like a protein bar made from dog vomit. I had to shower afterward, and still felt dirty.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

I do rather enjoy the Cuba Libre one. I think it is a pretty good stick. The Cuba Libre is pretty bad though.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

I have forgotten what it was so I can only hope that I never have it again.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

Acid Blondie. Nasty sh!t.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

I'm surprised by this. You must have had a bad one.

Re: what's the WORST cigar you've smoked?
 

The worst I ever smoked was a Cremosa. It was a blind taste test, and I had some uppity lady sneering at me for smoking a cigar, so I held on longer than I would have otherwise. I would have put it down in less than half an inch had it not been a blind taste test (I wanted to give it a shot due to this).

It was the most disgusting, chemical-tasting, rotten piece of crap that you could imagine ever smoking.
