What Do You Do...

I've tossed a Pinar 2000, one lumberg mailed out in the taste thing, and a Diablo. The rest I can't remeber, but those were the worst!!!

what was it that you didn't like about the fonseca??.....it really is one of the best dominican brands.....you may want to try the fonseca vintage or the vegas de fonseca,which is a nicely priced,cammy wrapped cigar...or,the fonseca sun-grown cedars.....

I've actually had cigars that I couldn't stand the frist 1/3, which turned into one of the best cigars I've ever smoked after finishing it (LFDM Chisel). I was VERY tempted to toss it close to the beginning, but held in there (it was VERY spicy at first). Now I know what to expect with that cigar... (It is a POWERFUL smoke!!!)

I'd suggest you tough it out to the end - then make your mind up about the cigar - unless it's so obnoxious you can't take it. And I'd try the cigar a second time if it wasn't REAL bad, just to make sure you didn't get one bad one out of the bunch (it happens from time to time).

If the cigar flavor wise is not good at the start I will usually keep smoking it, I will just not nub it. But I have had a few cigars that just didn't produce enough smoke for me and I threw it out. I just don't like working real hard to smoke my cigar. If it is plugged or just doesn't produce smoke I toss.

It was the Sun Grown. that I had.

What did I like? I don't really know how to talk about cigars, and I don't really know how to describe it. About the best I can do is that it tasted...tangy? I think that would describe it best. The one I had anyway. I may give them another chance, but probably not.

i'm actually more interested in some of the shit from your blog.....some of it is pretty amazing...

You didn't like the Diablo? That's a shame. They're nice looking cigars. I find them quite tasty. Very similar to Onyx and Nestor Reserve's in flavor.

It's a question of degree with me, but generally I will give it the benefit of the doubt and see if it gets better. I did once chuck a Private Stock after half an inch though, horrible
