Biggest Disappointment?

My biggest was a RP Decade, I couldn't get any flavor our of it. The burn and smoke was perfect but was bland. I do have another sitting in my humidor I'll let sit and give it another try. It was the first RP that I have tried that I haven't liked.

Yea I'd give that one another chance because I've had several Decades and I think they are a great smoke and I've never had a bland one. I hate to hear that one was such a let down.

Honestly(probably going to get flame sprayd for this one) God Of Fire Carlito. I thought it was pretty flat. Not complex and overall...mediocre. Sucks i paid as much for it as i did.

So far, mine has been the Danli Reserve Sun Grown. The write up was great. The stick looked gorgeous with a classy band, but the flavor was gawd awful.

A Ramone Allones that I read a great review about ...bought two and it tasted like a damn turd....the worst tasting cigar I EVER had though was that Helix Cafe thingy that tasted like a goats a$$ on fire

I'm pretty new at smoking cigars I have only been doing it a little over 2 years, so I'm still in the mild category. So I was looking forward to trying the 5 Vegas Gold, and man was it a big let down. I almost did not want to finish it. I have a couple more so I figure I let them season in my humidor for a while until I give them another try.

My biggest let down was probably the Cusano Xclusivo. I've only had one but I hated it. I think the biggest let down of a cigar I really wanted to try was the Between the Lines.

For me, it was the Sol Cubano Cuban Cabinet, had draw issues, burn issues and it was a bit on the bland side, probably should give it another chance soon.

Fuente Curly Head...might as well have been a Swisher.

For me it would have to be the Drew Estate Java...waited along time to smoke it and when I did, I could barely get a draw off of it. I was terribly disappointed, actually had to put it down and light up my RP Ren.

Really? I thought this cigar was great considering what it is. It's no 8-5-8 or Don Carlos but for the price I thought it was really good.

CAO America - I was very excited to try this cigar. The first one I got was so tight that after struggling with it for a third of it's length I tossed it. Nothing I did would make it draw. The second one I tried drew okay but I found the taste to be completely unspectacular. The cigar began to unravel half way through even though I was careful to handle it gently ( I know that unravelling is common with "barber pole wrappers).................... Macanudo - I have smoked a dozen different Macs and have detested every one of them. I can say the same thing about Cusano.

For me it was the Gurkha regent. I'd smoked the Titan and really liked it. I tried the regent and it tasted like dirt and wood. Harsh and bitter. I just couldn't get into it. Just got the ccom Cuban labels and am tasting a lot of the same flavors just much more subtle. I was really hoping this would keep me out of my good cigar humi, but it's pushing me towards it more and more. Disappointing.

My biggest disappointment is the new La Cuna 1720s I just ordered. Everyone seems to rave about the 85's so I got some 1720's on sale to try the brand and, in a word, BORRRRRRRING!!! The first inch and a half are nice and get me psyched for a good ride, but then it turns the corner into Blandville and never comes back. At least now I have something to give my drunk friends.

I think my biggest was probably the Man'o'war... It's not a bad cigar, don't get me wrong... But I had heard SO much hype about it I guess my expectations were WAY higher than they should have been... When I actually got around to trying one it was a huge let down...

I was going to say Man o War...I swear. So maybe I'd say 5 Vegas Miami. I've only had one, but it was bad. Maybe I'll try another one sometime.

I am with you on this one.. Sorry to all the fans of this cigar, but it does not win me over. The first one I had I hated, next was better but to me, there are too many others I enjoy, and MOW is not one of them.

Definatley the Gurkha Titan.... I'll tell you what, that cigar really did nothing for me and it just seemed like a chore to smoke it. I think i'll have to get one and age it for 6 months or a year and try it out
