I like the regular Excaliburs better than these BUT I've never had that bad an experience with them. There are times when depending on how I feel, what I ate or drank recently that can change how a cigar tastes to me. Now I LOVE Anejos's but there have been times where they tated like total crap to me BUT it wasn't the cigar's fault.

If I were you, I'd smoke a few more before you conclude you can't stand them.
