If you have smoked the cigar and didn't like it, then by all means trash it.

While there are some Gurkhas that are actually pretty decent sticks (I do have about 40 of them in the humi), there isn't a single Rocky cigar I would ever smoke again!!!!
The last one literally made me sick to my stomach... wanting to vomit isn't a fun feeling and I do my best to avoid it. I tried several of his blends and everyone of them gave me the same gag reflex... so after a few tries I said enough! Regardless of any of his cigars being good or not, a few bad apples is enough to keep me away forever.
I compare it to bad food at a restaurant... how many times do you need to get sick before you just won't go back? I just ate at a chili's for the first time in 3 years... and I regretted it. The food wasn't that good, was way overpriced, and made me sick... so I won't ever go back. Some of them might be ok, but the whole chain is dead to me.
