If you want decent cheap smoke Nicaraguan 2nd sweet caps or regulars are very decent for price point.just my opinion though if rested a few days I smoke quite a few per week and most are goid sticks...

Perhaps it's just me, but I cannot remotely agree with the description given for these cigars.

Granted, I did not pay much for them, but, when the copy reads, "MISTAKES are tasty, mild-bodied smokes that are buttery smooth with a creamy, enjoyable flavor.", I expect a bit more than just burning tobacco. I'm not entirely certain that tobacco was used to make them.

They burn hot after the first third or so, with no discernible flavor of their own, at all.

There was once a time I would've bought, and probably enjoyed these so long as they smoked at least halfway down.

But no, I wouldn't advise anyone buy mistakes/seconds/rejects etc.

If you want cheap bundle smokes at least go for real bundles, not the reject/mistake/seconds lot. Buy the house blend bundles.

I personally would try the Nicaraguan 2nds....again outta 2 bundles may have had 1_2 lil harsh...there very consistant from smoke to smoke,though a a lighter to mid smoke..I smoke over quite a few higher price sticks...worth a try as long as you not looking for full bodued smoke.....just an opinion but several friends of mine alsovthought they were higher priced

Is it just me or are the new posters here at CBid the whiniest little crybabies this side of the interwebs?

Grand dad always said one mans trash is another mans treasure. I have some great cigars stored for the crew this time, and they know how to toss them to the crabs if they don't like em. everyone's taste are different so might as well give everything a try. The worst that can happen is we dump them on some unsuspecting customs creep. I hate to see product tossed in the trash when it might come in handy some time, like an extended poker game where ante is a Gurkha and an Opus X is worth 35 Gurkhas.

There are a lot of cigars we have not tried, so what better way of getting a variety and a load other than taking disappointments off other peoples hands.

OPfth sent me some great stuff this year after they mailed everything to the regular troops. Others have sent mutwat and bait fish, and lots of Tatuaje's in trades. It has been a great experience. Some sent custom blends for us to try. I have had few cigars that did not make it to the half way mark, but very few because the people here have always sent great stuff for us boneheads.

My next endeavor after the Las Caliveras Memorial party is going to be to try and save up an Opus X for each of the crew. I just hate to ruin our fun by actually smoking something quality and ruining our cheap fun.

I will second (or third or forth) that the Nicaraguan "2nds" are a good smoke for the price although I'm pretty sure they are not really seconds that were pulled out of the "good" bin by a sharp eyed inspector, but were made from the outset to be a discount stick.

Kombat loves to burn them. He single handedly keeps the mistakes label in business, once he started buying them, mistakes had to hire away torchedors from cuban rejects to meet increased demand. He has cooleradors full of them. The value is just too hard to beat. 🇨🇮

Its called a mistake for a reason. a cigar using trimmings and leftovers. Dont be fooled, no matter how long you let them rest, no matter what cigar you lay them next to....they are still forever a craptastic cigar. Spend the extra 5 cents a cigar and purchase quality cigars. Lifes to short to buy mistakes, would you buy a car or house thats being advertised as a mistake?
