I guess every once in a while you get a bad one but wow!

Afaik, bad tasting cigars are generally due to poor storage, i.e., too dry for an extended time. Not saying that you stored them incorrectly but depending on where you got it from, there may have been lapses of proper humidification.

I’ve smoke out of this Tupperware recently and no issues. I will try another Macanudo tomorrow

Haha

Anyway thanks for the help folks!

98.2% of us all had a similar journey. Hell, if I tried an LFD Double Ligero too soon in that process, I probably would've thought I didn't like LFDs.

I bought some MoW Puro Authenticos a while back. Smoked one and was disappointed. I let 'em sit for a while, and eight months later, they were much better. A year later, better still. I smoked one the night before last, and thought it was pretty excellent. And, I like that I only paid about $2.50 a piece for them.

I've had numerous similar experiences. They could be too green, weren't store properly for a while, etc. Give 'em time.

Or just bad tobacco, only Macanudo If smoke is a Vintage 97 maduro.

Those are the best ones that I've had too
