    Yep. I have a box of Rey Mundos in the humi right now. I haven't had enough Punch(es) to say if I like them or not. I like Hoyos.

    I wasn't trying to piss anyone off saying that consuerga was one of my 5 least favorites.

    This could be fun

    Worst cigars ever (if you have these, make sure you send them to me for proper disposal! PM me for my address):
    1) Padrons of the '64, '26, 40th and 80th bent (natural or maduro, but the maduro are much worse and need much more of a quick disposal)
    2) Opus, Anejos, Maduro Hemingways
    3) Davidoff Diademas and Culebras or other Davidoff specials (Graycliff XX, AVO LE's, etc)
    4) Any from that special island
    5) La Auroras

    I'd have to say

    1) Acids
    2) Royal Jamaica (Only had one but it wasn't very good)
    3) Nub Cameroon (Liked the Habano and Connecticut but not the cameroon)
    4) Victor Sinclair (Got a sampler and I'd probably say these qualify for yard-gars)
    5) Ghurka (I'd have to say that I've had the worst luck with roll quality on these cigars... half of them are too tight to smoke and another 25% burn oddly... the remaining 25% are usually pretty damn good but for some of the prices of their cigars I would expect a perfect draw/burn every time)

    Kevin is just trying to make a point that not all Consuegras are the same. They are seconds of many different lines. Some are good, some damn good, and some lick balls.

    For me 5 smokes that I would not bother picking up again.

    1. Guantanameras
    2. "Mexican" RyJ's
    3. Tierra Del Sol
    4. CAO Gold
    5. Helix

    Hmmmm

    Maybe I stumbled upon a batch of "lick balls" consuergas.

    If I could go back, I'd change definietly change that to Acid Def Sea
    Tasted like a swisher sweet. (Hopefully I don't anger anyone with that pick)

    So, what's a good consuerga? If they're seconds that keep changing, how do you know?

    The one(s) I had were very dry, harsh & poorly constructed. burned fast & hot.

    I'm not a "connie" connoisseur, I have only had the #9 which was pretty good. I believe it was a punch rothschild second(don't quote me). If you do a little search there is a reference list floating around the internet somewhere that will tell you what some of the #'s are.
