I hate acid not because they are sweet, but because they taste like horse ****.

I have been thinking about them lately for some reason. When did they break up?

I'm in the NUB camp. Love everything Oliva except that part of the brand. Won't smoke Acids either.

Not a big Camacho fan either, Dave. Don't really like any light natural that tastes like hay, no matter who makes it.

Tech_ninja brought an Iguana to a PPP last year. I swore those bastards off!

I've written off Acid due to consistent headaches and naseau as a result of smoking them.
At one time I had written off CAO and now I'm giving them a fair shake again and finding many of them to be quite enjoyable.

I haven't written off Acids yet. Never had one. They seem too expensive for flavored cigars.

I agree, John and others, that you should try lots of cigars, and form your own opinions, not write off a line due to others' opinions or limited experience. Smoke what you like, like what you smoke.

That being said, I have smoked enough cigars from the brands I have sworn off of to have my own educated opinion, and make no apologies for those opinions.

After smoking many cigars, somewhere in the thousands, I have come to the conclusion I can pretty much find something good from someones hand rolled collection of beauties.

I have to wonder though, when someone smokes (inset cigar here) that they feel is bad inevitably the next words out of their mouth is this brand is crap, I'll never smoke another ____ again. As I said, that is your choice, but you may be missing out on a really fine smoke.
PM me your addy and I will send you a cremosa and a guantanamere cristales. Maybe I can find you a gorillafinger too.

Of the name brand NC's,I could never find a Camacho I liked.
Most other recognized NC brands,I can usually find something tolerable.

I liked the Nub Havana I tried, but not enough to buy a box. Too many other things to smoke.
I have found a lot of cigars I stay away from, but not brands.
