sticks you do not like - Page 3

Depends... Some sticks start off bitter or harsh the first half inch or so then even out I've found. If it really sux, might as well go with something you'll enjoy!

I had the same experience.
That was about 1 year ago. I have 2 more that I am going to try again now that they have some age on them.

Tossed the 1st Indian Tabac Anniversary Limited Reserve Buffalo out of a 10'er and gave the rest away, bad smoke but made it up to my tastebuds with a LFD Double Ligero Chisel...yummy

I'll almost always chuck it unless it's a gift. Now if the draw is bad after I light it, I'll toss it and curse it to hell.

Unless its a review or a gift, it goes out in under an inch. Even if the flavors are good but the draw is tough it goes out. Ask BengalMan, many a good stick have been extinguished before they even get off the ground. Life is too short to struggle through bad sticks.

toss it

warpedcigars · 10-08-2009, 05:59 PM

I toss it.

DMK · 10-08-2009, 06:07 PM

Usually the first time I try something, I'll smoke the whole damn thing, even if I have to chase it with something to wipe out the taste...

Even my first and only Ghurka...

jjirons69 · 10-08-2009, 07:00 PM

It's got to go.

maverickdrinker · 10-08-2009, 07:40 PM

I try to smoke it at least halfway to give it a chance. Some cigars start harsh and end up calming down and becoming delicious.

DragonMan · 10-08-2009, 08:00 PM

I DO NOT LIKE GURKHAS!!!

I shall not, can not, will not ever smoke one again!!!

Now that I got that off my chest, if it's a gift or the first time trying a cigar I'll try and smoke as much of it as I can stomach before tossing it. On the very slim chance that it might get better but that has yet to happen!!

Nick, tell us how you really feel about Gurkhas

If it's a construction issue and the cigar tastes good, I'll fight with it for a good 20 minutes. The one thing I cannot stand is that sour apple taste a lot of Honduran smokes have. If it tastes bad, I'll pitch it.

acarr · 10-08-2009, 08:49 PM

I only toss it when the thing is like sucking a lemon seed through a coffee straw. Other than that I usually smoke it.
