Agreed. I tried two on a couple separate occasions at Casa and was completely underwhelmed each time.

A couple others that disappointed: Gran Habano 2008 Gran Reserva. Loved them at the B&M.. Great taste, so I bought a box... About sixty percent have been plugged or just taste terrible. Big let down.
Also, davidoff Puro, de Oro. Awful, bitter, harsh and expensive and EPC short run 2011, it was just blah and boring IMHO.

there was one I pitched about an inch and a half in... I thought I even mentioned it on this board but can't find my post. it was no good, but sadly can't remember the name. Runner up goes a JdN Antano that I was able to drown out with a full bottle of some special Stag's Leap release.

I notice that there are a lot of expensive sticks on people's lists, which doesn't surprise me at all. I'm the same way--just expect more from a cigar the pricier it is. That's probably why most of my favorites are also the budget-friendly ones
Didn't care for the MUWAT at ALL. tried 2 or 3 and got rid of the rest.
The first Undercrown I smoked was disappointing but I've tried a few others that have rested for several weeks and I'm starting to like them.
Had high hopes for both as Ligas are my favorite smokes.

i don't know what i would call the worst smoke of the year. had a couple i've pitched. i have had more sticks i would call major disappointments. all the hype and build up, then you try them and they are average at best.

Indeed! Seems like many of the cigars out there today are quite good.
I would say that there were very few cigars that I had this year that were really "bad", a good handful that were "pretty good", a good handful that were "really good", and a select few that were "outstanding." I think that's a decent hit rate.

I'm shaking my head reading this thread. Wow ! I would love to see the list of smokes you had this year. Cigar smoking is indeed extremely subjective. Someone's favorite, another's disappointment. Either way, smoke 'em if you got 'em !
Tatuaje Havana is your worst stick of the year? Seriously?I thought what the hell and gave it a try, worst stick of the year. Dont know what it is called.
I dont know what kid of tastes you have but they surely dont match mine.
Wow.

Just had one of these...jeeezus, what were they thinking? This is the worst cigar I have EVER had. Worse than the cheapy dog rockets I tried when I was new to cigars. Worse because these tasted just like them but cost me 30bucks for a fiver. These literally taste like smoke.
Wow that's hard to believe, I've liked just about everything from Ernesto
I'm super picky, but I liked the only EPC I've had.
