A bad Pepin stick?

Wharf Rat · 03-09-2012, 10:03 PM

I pulled a Pepin Blue torpedo out of the 'dor. Cut it and took a first draw and it was like sucking on a straw. Too loose by a lot. It tunneled and canoed and everything, so I worked through it else. But, it tasted good, so I worked through it.

I've smoked dozens of these and never ran into anything like this. There's a reason why they're my favorite and the next one will be better.

Get a bad one every now and then, but at least it still was tasty

Cigars are an agricultural product. It's like a subpar apple or orange.

It happens although not with me yet. Every Pepin stick is a little bit of heaven.

It seams everyone is expecting a perfect cigar every time. Dont get me wrong i want the perfect cigar too. But i have come to realize something.. Cigars are man made right, well what if the roller just found out that is son has caner or his wife is in labor but he cannot leave his job to be there. I am not saying that we are wrong for wanting the perfect smoke. But i think that it is more then except-able to get a "bad" cigar every once and a while.

PS no spiders in my cigar though
