Cigar Expectations: Success and Failure

Blak Smyth · 01-20-2012, 08:16 AM

Insipred by Garry's thread about being affraid to burn a stick he has high expectations for, I would like to share some of my expectations that ended in dissapointment and some of my successful surprises, please do the same!

I look forward to seeing your experiences, I have a feeling there will be many surprises!

This is all based upon my own personal tastes and experiences, just my opinions.

(Keep in mind, I am not saying these sticks are good or bad. I am saying I either had low expectations that a cigar far exceeded or I had high expectations that the cigar underwhelmed. The first two I had high expectations and they were still exceeded.)

Exceeded my expectations:
LP#9
L40
Kristoff Maduro
Diesel UHC
Famous Nic 5000
Famous Nic Maduro
Omar Ortez Original Maduro
RASCC
My Father El Hijo
San Lotano Habana Lancero
EP Carillo NWC

Failed to meet my expectations:
Liga Undercrown
Viaje Holiday Blend
Obsidian
Famous Nic 3000
Tatuaje La Casita Criolla
My Father Lancero
Legends Yellow Label by DPG
Carino Maduro
Man o War Virtue
AB American Classic Blend
