most disappointing smoke?

[ashauler]

I'd have to say the CAO Italia....I really wanted to like that smoke and just couldn't do it.

I have found this smoke to be either you love it or hate it... I'm on the love it side

ah, don't tell me that. i've been looking forward to trying it.

I'm gonna go with Partagas Serie P I had a couple weeks ago. Terrible burn, no flavor, but I know it wasn't fake. I don't know what the deal was.

For me, it was a red dot cohiba. I picked a few up when I first got into cigars, and because of the name and the price I was expecting a lot. The first and every one after made me feel like I was smoking a $2 cigar, not something 10+.

Partagas 160, CAO cameroon(disgustiing), Perdomo Cabinet reserve Cameroon(ugh),

CAO italia....it was good, then ok, then ugh, then ok, then kinda ok/good all in one stick. Not fighting for another one anytime soon but if someone gives me one I wouldn't turn it down.

I agree with derivation on the red dots - they suck. Very disappointed in the ERdM Supremo oscuro. The shorter ones are ok though. I like the padron 1000 series, but only 2K and 3K. The larger ones taste like charcoal past the 1/2-way point to me.

For me it would definitely have to the the LFD Mysterio that I had a year or so ago. I was expecting so much and all I got out of it was hot air.

The first Opus that I smoked. I lit it up damn near fresh, and I fucking hated it. Grassy and stanky as hell. I couldn't get past the first inch.

By far the worst I have had was the highly recommended Stradivarius cigar!!!

Maybe someone won't be happy with me saying this, but here is what happened:
Went to rtda with some friends this year and we each got a free one. We all decided to pick a night and we would all get together and smoke these together. We all put them out at the same time! It looked odd with 3 cigars lying in an ashtray hardly smoked and us smoking something else.
