Don't know about this brand, but the worst cigar I attempted to smoke was from Thompson. A guy I know sent me a box of Thompson's silver edition; nothing but crap; two puffs and I threw it away. Gave all but one to someone else (with a warning) saved one to give to the guy who gifted me.

This is a joke right....akin to smoking rope (LOL)

The worst cigar I ever smoked had to be a Papayo.

O man...I agree. We got a box in the office last Christmas from a vendor and split them up. Had to be by far the worst cigar shaped turd I ever had. I think a Philly Blunt would have tasted better.

A La Fontana, a Next Generation (sorry Rob), and a Habana Gold (Specifically the Black Label-definite dogrocket material...The White Label are OK but the Sterling Labels are very good!)..Just to name a few.

Rookie is right the NextGeneration Churchill was/is terrible. The worst though for me....Evita and/or Providencia....oh man. Rookie....did I or did I not make the NextG up to you?

Hey this is kind of fun...I have a huge list of cigars that truly hate but I will only give last place.Tied for last despite their differences in price are the Bering Casino and the Davidoff Double "R".Both tasted like a paper bag and burned like one too.Albeit the Davidoff looked pretty, it is by far the most disappointing cigar on the market because a $20 cigar should not taste that way.The Bering, I kind of suspected because it is not unreasonable to believe that you get what you pay for,but Davidoff has the nerve to charge so much for such crap.We smoke cigars for flavor and body and the lingering pleasure that they bring...not for asethetics.

I think the worst I smoked was the VM Santana I believe it is called? Anyway a friend gave me one, I took one puff and tossed it and ran hard and fast away from it, asking for forgiveness, I hope my friend had the best of intentions as I would feel guilty giving this one to my worst enemy. I have never bought a Davidoff for the reasons listed above, as I hear this way too often, and there are many fine cigars on the market in the $3 to $5 range, so I won't even bother risking $20 to try one of these.

Worst handmade I've smoked: Aroma de San Andres Toro. They should have named it 'Aroma de Mierda de los Perros' or simply, 'Crap Stick'. Pretty looking cigar, nice band, but once you open that book, it's time to burn it (metaphorically burn because the last thing in the world you want to do with this dogrocket is burn it). Took it apart and found a friggin' twig on the middle. WTF!? Honorable mention: Te-Amo Toro, I'd smoke fiberglass insulation before I'll ever touch one of these again.

I agree on the Teamos. My leeast favorito is the Gran Pee-ro-mide. This had to be the worst tasting cigar on the planet. Lord, it was bad!!! Some of those Philippine smokes (fighting ****,etc) are a very close second.

I would have to agree and disagree on the Fighting **** line...The only one I thoroughly enjoy is the Smokin' Lulu..A perfecto..Very spicy with great construction..All the others in the line are garbage..I definitely agree on the Te-Amos..Pure crap..Cruz Real (what's with these Mexican dogrockets??!) is another one on my list.

I hate to say this because I bought the cigars here, but the Gloria Palmeras were pretty nasty.
