By far the worst this year for me has been the New Trinidad short Robusto! I had been looking forward to this and then it just didnt want to play!

It burnt really hot and uneven like i have never seen. Even with constant correction it canoed all the way up.

Being a huge Trini fan i guess this was just a stroke of bad luck but I havent managed to bring myself to light another.

Bhk 56. Can't comment on the 52 or 54. Like T said, this is a WEIRD smoke and to my taste really no better than most regular production cubans. No wholesome flavour, no strength to make it stand out, no good!

Has to be the Mag 50. The first two were fantastic then I had a run of 4 tightly packed sticks. So damn tight hardly any smoke came out!?

Thats a shame...I've got through a box this year and everyone was great.

May improve with age, Trinidad do in my experience, but this is so little cigar for the money I can't think I shall replace the one I have in my humidor once it's smoked.

Most disappointing would definitely be the RyJ Duke. I need to try another incase I had a dud, but the construction was woeful, and the flavour didn't do anywhere near enough to make up for it.

Whilst I'd agree that the BHKs didn't live up to the expectations which had been set for them, I couldn't call them disappointing, as I still thought they were very good cigars (and a good cigar can never be a disappointment ).

Of course, the Rafael Gonzalez PC I had was worse than the Duke, but I had no real expectations of it, so couldn't really be disappointed. (Just annoyed that I'd spent money on it).

Siglo IV.

I have had one that was gifted to me in the humi since their UK release (June/July 03? & still sitting there), but back in the summer smoked my first - one obtained as part of a trade on here

Not a bad smoke, but it didn't match up to the Monty Sublimes from the same source that I had smoked the previous weekend.


Prior to that I'd would have said P SD4 - had a 3 or 4 over my smoking career, but never enjoyed them (even a Reserva smoked back in '07) until one I smoked a couple of months back (also from a trade IIRC).

That has made me giggle like mad.

I'ts got to be a cuban for me!

Davidoff (Not So) Special 'R'.
Thought it might be a route into NC's but sadly a sorry let down...

[Fat1]

Possibly Nubs?

I got off to a good start with these the first time I tried them in the US, so I ended up buying more.

Pretty much every stick since has had uneven burn, plugging, and for some reason I just dont like the taste they give off now.

Got a couple more in the humi so will try one again soon before I completely write them off.

As for new cigars, this might change when I try a wide churchill but the Behike 56 was the most disappointing, not the worst but the most disappointing. The 54 is the king of that line.

Por Laranaga Nationales. Awful smoke.

Trinidad Roubusto Extra - an isolated case, I like trini, but that particular one was absoutely unsmokeable !
