Which construction issue bugs you the most?

[OLd_gUY]

Hi SOTL and BOTL,
I was enjoying my 1st of the day when the wrapper started coming undone.
I thought, "Man, I hate that". Then I thought about other issues and came to the conclusion that I dislike the wrapper issue the most, even more than an ammonia taste because I just toss those instead of fighting it.
So, which construction issue do you hate fighting the most (wrapper coming undone, hard draw, uneven burn, etc., etc.)?

Hard draw is the one that i hate the most. I usually tend to keep smoking the cigar but my cheeks hurt afterwards.

Tight draw is the worst imo

Hard draw followed closely by the tiny crack that turns into a blooming flower when you get to it. Or even worse when it just grows.

Caps busting and then unraveling is mine. Ruins the experience, I hate that sloppy feeling on the lips.

I can fight may way through anything except a plugged cigar. I sometimes even enjoy the ritual and delicate care it takes to smoke a cigar with unravelling issues. A plugged cigar is just worthless and has me regretting the money I spent on it.

Plugged cigars for sure, i feel like it can heat up the cherry too much and cause bitter flavors from all the purging and puffing

Hard draw but uneven burn is a close second. Guess I'm a little OCD

Tight draw

Tight draw is top on the list, tied for 2nd is unraveling of the wrapper and an uneven burn, especially when I'm driving.

I agree with the majority so far..tight draw

yep... another one for tight draw here, I just toss it after a few mins of messing with it

 

[sirhorse]

Yup, tight draw for me, as well.

Tight draw

 

[StogieNinja]

Yup. Plugged draw.

Wow and an overwhelming victory for tight draw. This post brought to you by Caldwell cigars

yeah plugged/tight draw is by far the worst because inevitably you will end up pulling so hard just to get the normal amount of smoke that you get tar buildup and it just compounds in a vicious cycle from there.

I love right draws. Oh wait, that's right...I hate them too.

Not sure if this is specifically a construction issue, but for me specific brands someone produce an insane amount of tar in 67% humidity. And I'm too lazy to dry box them. But if a cigar tars up on me, the experience is ruined. At least with a tight draw you can sometime use a draw tool on them. To me, tar is a death sentence for the cigar.

oooooh how about this one as another BS thing. too much glue on the band so when you try to take it off it rips the wrapper.

thats outrageous. (lookin at you opus >_>)
