Definitely without a doubt anything made by Helix. I had a Macanudo that was like smoking a Post It Note. I don't remember which one it was. I used to really like them when I started smoking cigars. Now I think they are nasty. I hate to be the one but Diesel Unholy Cocktail taste like a goat's ass while on fire in a hay field. It did get better but the start was awful. That saidI have only had one and I will revisit this cigar. You should do the same. Unless you are going to puke maybe you had a bad stick. Try another one.
We all have different tastes. Your tastes in cigars will change over time. The cool thing is if you have something that isn't your thing there are plenty of guys here who would probably trade for it.
CuAvana Intenso......i may get flamed for this but i couldnt make it past a few puffs.
You should have stuck with it Vinny. The intenso's are actually really good little sticks. I have burned thru one box of these and have another chillin'. They may start slow, ( a lot of cigars do that for me) but by the time you are an inch or so in, there great.
+1... i really like these as a go to daily stick. Thinking about buying a box. They do amazing with some age on them too. Try it again. If you need another, pm me. I'll be glad to hook ya up.
One of the worst cigars I ever had, and this is strictly my opinion, is the Te-Amo. It was very harsh and tasted like burning leaves. I hear it is a love-it or hate-it kind of cigar, and I fall into the second group.

Hi kaspera79!
What stick from Te Amo is the one you're talking about?
Try the Mini Belicosos or the Mini Perfectos from Te Amo, if you can find it. In my opinion, are the best ones from the brand, with the only downside being the small size (48x4"). Also, if you have more sticks from this brand, let it age for some months, sometimes the flavor improves a lot with some aging. The main issue with mexican cigars (BTW, I'm mexican, that's the reason for the bad english :-) is their lack of proper aging. Some sticks from Te Amo (like the World Selection Series Cuba Blend) have a strong ammonia smell and taste (the tobacco is still aging).
Back to the topic, the Te Amo World Selection Series (except the Dominicana and Honduras blends) are the worst ones I've smoked, lots of ammonia and, as said by kaspera, an awful burning leaves taste.
Hmm, goats ass? My votes would go for 5 Vegas Relic, and Puros Indios viejo. I will revisit the Relic as I have one more, but only after a year or more of aging and dry boxing as some have suggested on these forums. Either way, unless it's fan-freakin-tastic (unlikely), I think it's too much trouble to go through when I could just buy something else that doesn't need all the special attention.
Oh and I almost forgot, Punch gets the goats ass vote as well from me. Oh yeah and I love RP in general, but the Puro Cubano, pure goats ass!

As I remember it was a petit corona maybe a 5x42 or so, with a natural wrapper. And maybe not surprisingly, it was given to me by a friend who happens to be Mexican. He says it is the only cigar he ever liked. I just didn't get much from that particular stick. Your English is fine, by the way.. Have a good one
Erin Go Braugh. And though I like a good 5 Vegas, the 5 Vegas Relic tasted a bit like a goat's ass.
I'll be glad to take them off your hands. Its the ONLY 5 vegas I like.
Sorry man, I bought 2, smoked one after two weeks rest and the other after 5 months to see if it changed any. It got slightly less goat assy and picked up a few hints of horse ass.
Fonseca. Not sure exactly how TWO of these things ended up as CotM selections in the same month, but, well... calling these things goat ass is actually kinda insulting to a goats ass IMHO.
That will be the Padilla Obsidian for me. Utter terribleness.
What? LIES! You must have gotten a bad one - these are a real treat.
In the mystery stick game, I smoked a "Original Cuban." The name should about say it all, but it pretty much tasted horrid. I was attempting to be nice while reviewing it.

Tat.... You HAVE to be kidding me. I was just about to post how much the obsidian tasted like a goats ass right after it was violated by a rutting moose. Horrible!!

Haha, I think I should watch my back when we do future trades...
In all seriousness, the Obsidian that I had was probably a bum stick. I'll probably try another 1 or 2 to be fair.

Padilla Obsidian - worst cigar I had last year. Tried it again this year.....same thing...goats ass puro. And heres where you guys boot me off this forum......diesel..... it was unfinishable.....in all fairness I only tried one....i will revisit them due to the overwhelming fandom on this site.
Gurkhas seem to be either goat's ass, or great. Regent - pure goat's ass. Centurian, great...I could go on with most of the blends but my fingertips would end up bloody from all the typing.
This is making me not want to smoke the Bahia Blue I have..
I actualy enjoyed the one I tried. I had it a little fresh even and it was pretty enjoyable as far as mild smokes go. I tend to enjoy the fuller bodied ones more, but this wasn't a bad cigar for the price. Give it a shot, you might like it.
I had a great idea to create this section do to a high response of people saying that the Helix Maduro tasted like goats ass. So i thought to myself, "I would like to know what sticks other people think taste like goats ass, this would really help me discern if I wanted to buy these sticks or not". So i dont' know if it is my place to start something like this but here it is, an open invitation to post your all time least favorite sticks and a short description of why. The term "goats ass" is optional in describing the stick however highly prefered. With that being said, I will start things off. I think the Graycliff 1666 tasted like goats ass.
I don't know man, but you look like a serious homo. I bet you wanna find sticks that taste like ass. you damn fa ggot.

+1... the worst 5 Vegas by far.
