what's the WORST cigar you've smoked? - Page 12

Carlos Torano Casa Torano. The first cigar I can remember not even getting through the first 1/3 before giving up. Maybe I got a bad one. The Exodus wasn't as bad but it has turned me off of CT.

JR's "Replica" cigars. They have one that is suppose to taste like a Fuente, etc...

My Lord was that a horrible cigar. I would not let Osama Bin Laden smoke that. How could anyone fancy cigars if they were offered that as cigar?

I'll take a Backwoods Cherut over that.

I can honestly say that the Gurkhas I've tried from my B&M are FAR better than the ones I've purchased online. They're still overpriced, though.

Deja vu

i thought it was common knowledge that B&Ms get the better stuff - the onlines get the mediocre? seems like there might have been a thread about this at one time...

Villar y Villar and La Primadora - equally crappy.

Worst hyped cigar IMO - Macanudo Maduro (Hyde Park I think).

Tie for me between Ashton Aged Maduros(licking an ashtray would have tasted better) and Zino Platinum Z Classes(the first inch has more ammonia in it than the bottle my roommate keeps for housecleaning)
