I'm not sure if I can come up with 5, but here's a few:

1. Onyx Reserve maduro
2. AF Cuban Corona
3. Montecristo Platinum vintage 1999
4.Tierra del Sol

None of these were just terrible, save for the Onyx, but most either had major burn/construction issues (AF/Monte) or a very bitter beginning (TdS)

1. Any catalog-exclusive, or anything with a big catalog advert.
2. Anything with a list price not rooted in reality.
3. Any brand that starts with "Don." EDIT: excluding DPG, DC
4. Any bargain bundled smoke (non-Cuban).
5. Anything infused, painted, or otherwise artificially enhanced.

Wow... leaving Don Pepin and Don Carlos in the list is surprising


1. Any Helix

2. Any Acid

3. Any other flavored cigar.. Though I did smoke some thing called "Isla del Sol" (I think that was it), that wasn't horrible.

4. Any Acid

5. Any Helix



Consuegras are not on my list, nor are Backwoods, I kinda like them for fishing cigars

You know, after I posted, I thought "oh man, I forgot about those horrid Acid Def Seas" Bad bad bad. They blow away the consuregas (in a bad way)

However, I found that Kubakubas are a holiday crowd pleaser (for the novices in the group) and really, the Irish Hops (DE naturals) are pretty good.

I wonder if you know what Consuegras really are? Do you?
