Hey, is that the one you found left over in the camper? Not that it would make a difference...still goat a**.
Yes it was, the stick was in amazingly good condition, absolutely no signs of damage but I think it was some sort of flavored stick from the start which I normally despise anyway.
Just tried out Gurkha Sherpa Cafe and Verdadero Organic. Not sure if it's the cigars or maybe it's my cold is a lot worse than I thought. Got cowhide and pepper from the Sherpa Cafe. Got raisin and wax from the Verdadero. I'll be revisiting these a loooong time after my cold's gone.
I'd chalk it up to the cold, the Verdadero is known for having raisin notes and I've got a Sherpa Cafe resting so I'm not sure what its like but I really enjoy the Verdadero, hope you get over your cold soon!

The sherpa is hit or miss some are ass some are ok some rest sure will help I have had a couple veradadero sitting for a while just waiting on the right time.
Perdomo Lot 23. I'm new to cigars and all, but that one tasted like wet grass clippings to me. Not good, and it was terribly harsh.
There's a lot of people who like that one, though I'm not one of them, I would recommend not writing it off altogether and maybe revisiting it a year or so from now.

what he said. When I first tried the Lot 23 I was still pretty new to cigars and I hated it. I only revisited it almost two years later when at a Perdomo event because I got some for free...and it blew me away. I've smoked about 25-30 since then.
ACID Kuba Kuba... tasted like a lit up a roll of potpourri
+1. tried one this weekend. tried being the key work ....about five minutes in, i was done...yuck
Try ACID cold infusion tea. Tasted like old cut grass rolled and aged in a vat of sugar.
I've personally never has an ACID that I actually liked. I rarely run down a cigar and I wouldn't say ACIDs are horrible... but they aren't my cup of tea (pardon the pun). Not to get too Dennis LEary on you gentleman, but I like Tobacco flavored tobacco.

nobody said they were horrible. we just seem to agree " they taste like a goats ass".
Having smoked many excellent Lot 23's I think it had perhaps not rested properly, maybe stored inappropriately, or perhaps was smoked too quickly.
I'm not sure about the cigar resting, but it was in my humidor for 2 months, 65% humidity, and it took about 1.25 hours to smoke (robusto). Not sure what the problem was, but it was not good for me. I may revisit it down the road, but it will have to be a long time. Long enough that I forget how bad this one was.
