Taboo gets the big BOO today...

[icantbejon]

So this isn't meant to be a huge slam for the entire Taboo line or anything. I've had a number of Taboo's that I really enjoy. However, today I had a terrible cigar. Lit up the Taboo LR Havana Torpedo and was instantly disappointed. The wrapper split almost immediately near the foot. From there, it was really just down hill. There were three really nasty plugged spots causing a seriously uneven burn. I contemplated many times just tossing it and moving on to something else. The wrapper cracked again up by the wrapper, but I'll blame this one on me taking the band off. To further my frustration, my lighter ran out of fluid and I wasn't able to correct the uneven burns. All and all, a very big let down from a brand I've come to like. I've had a few of the Havana Torpedos in the past with no problems, so it was a pretty big let down.
