Anyone Smoke Garbage?

[Tobacco Giant]

Does anyone here smoke garbage cigars? I'm talking about stuff like the Unsmokeables section of CI.

What's the crappiest cigar you smoke on a regular basis? Any diamonds in the rough out there?

Just wondering how there is even a market for that, I can't seem to find anyone who would buy/smoke them.

Magellan Dominicans from CI are not half bad.
I've got them for around $13.00 a bundle. I've paid 5X that for a hell of a lot worse.

Don't usually bother with those. Back when I was in college I smoked a lot of Garcia Vegas while fishing and what not. Looking back, I wish I'd gone with Padrons or something instead :laugh:. But you did remind me that I do have a Ron Mexico Churchill to review. It was a gag in a trade and I said I would do it anyway so...

I have smoked the Flor del Todo now for a while as my yardgar. I really enjoy them for what they are, a cheap cigar. You should check out Crap Cigar. They review cheap sticks. They are a bit vulgar (curse alot and things of that nature) but they are usually spot on in their ratings.

Haha, I would have never remembered if you didn't say it, but I smoked quite a few GVs in high school. I'll be looking out for that review, btw. I'll be impressed if you can make it through the whole thing.

The cheapest cigars I smoke somewhat regularly nowadays is the Padron x000 series.

la floriditas back a few years, but they worked then

Garcia y Vega!

I smoked a bunch of those in high school, too. These days not so much.

Haven't smoked crap since the Acids that got me into cigars =)

La Floriditas are pretty good for the price. Also if you live in a country where they are legal Jose L. Piedra makes some pretty good value CCs. They are handmade with short filler. Great everyday smokes for around $1.25-$2.00 depending on where they are bought.

These and Fuente makes some pretty affordable smokes. I'd hope no one would classify either as garbage.

Very funny!!!!!!


My cheap smokes are Famous Nic Habano bundles, or Little Havana Over runs from HOLTS.

My cheap smokes are from Label Your Cigar, very good.

Just smoked (sorta) a NC Partagas. Made it 10 minutes. that was complete, grade A GARBAGE.

Worst cigar I smoked was probably Rocky Patel R4. It was early in my cigar life and I fell for the marketing in the CI catalog. Don't really smoke too many crappy cigars anymore as my tastes have leveled out but I'm always willing to give a cigar a try.

Not really garbage but the Arturo Fuente Curly Head Deluxe at just a bit more than $2 a stick is a great yard maduro..

 

[wilfredsimpson]

Worst I got was Guantanamera. But even then, it was still a cuban.

I've smoked my share of garbage. A long time ago (10+ years), I just didn't know any better.. GV, dutchies.. My criteria for a good cigar then was simply, one that didn't fall apart. Nowadays I might end up with garbage just because I'm trying to find something decent for a reasonable price. CI blows out some gran habano stuff for 2$ a stick, and for me, some of them are worth it. That's is probably the best price point I think you can find on a smokeable cigar; ~2-3$. In my experience, most sticks less than that price taste like old newspaper.

The deluxe probably isn't the same as a regular curly head? For my taste though, a GH corojo #5 02' @ 2$ blows the curly head away.
