    Default Overrated cigars

    I had a Padron 1926 a while back, and the first half of the cigar was amazing. Flavors that reminded me of a cup of coffee with a piece of chocolate cake on the side. Then halfway through it changed to something else entirely. The coffee and chocolate flavors were completely gone, and an earthy woodsy, peppery flavor took over. It was like two completely different cigars, one was the best I ever had, the other was overpowering and full of flavors I don't really care for. It was extremely disappointing. So I thought I'd make this a place to talk about some cigars that are praised to the high heavens that you just didn't care for.

    You're an idiot. Padron 1926s are great cigars. You're too inexperienced with cigars to know what's good and bad therefore anything you have to say isn't worth jack.

    The fact that you posted that comment on this board shows you haven't read anything. It's the one cigar that never disappoints the receiver when given as a gift, thats been my experience.

    I've only smoked one, and it was a gift, and it didn't disappoint. But then, no Padron ever has yet as far as I'm concerned........LOL

    All Padron's are crap.
    Ill take all the ones you don't want to smoke and dispose of them properly.



    Now on a serious note, taste is different for everyone and you just happen to not like one of the best cigars i have every smoked.
    Taste also changes over time so if you dont like the cigar now give it a year or 2 and smoke it agian.

    A year or 2 ago i smoked a Sancho Panza and didn't like it at all but i gave them a chance again 4 months or so ago and this time i liked them.

    I'm going to be Mr. Nice for this thread and say that this is just a newblet smoker / cigar forum posting mistake. I believe I made the same mistake early on when I joined here.

    Threads that are based on people slamming a particular smoke never take off, or worse draw ire because "smoke what you like, and like what you smoke"

    Was that your very first 1926? Or - is it one in a string of disappointing 1926's you smoked?

    What do you think about Davidoff? Any thoughts? Are they equally disappointing?

    Sorry, I should've checked my spelling for I hit enter. What I meant to say was: "There's no such thing as a private forum here. Never has been, never will be. What a silly thought to suggest that there is one. These aren't the droids you're looking for"

    Wow, Kevin - you jumped immediately to "douchebag". Poor OxCal here hasn't even posted 25 times, yet. Aren't you being a bit too harsh?

    Perhaps he's in the "douchnozzle" category - with the hope of eventually being a "douchebag"?

    Or was it vice-versa...
