Candela- The forgotten wrapper?

WOW, talk about identical experiences. I got a box of 858s in Candela once, and my favorite cigar turned into something I will never forget. If you can imagine, it's like those dried herbs like basil or thyme that you get in the store. No matter what you do to it it will always taste like dried flakes of spice, green and wrong. We still use them because sometimes we have to. But you don't have to smoke a Fuente Candela. The wrapper tasted as green as it looked and was very off-putting. I am not sure I didn't throw the box away. I know I didn't smoke any more than the one, and I wouldn't give them away, either. What choice did I have?
