    Cigar that didn't live up to the hype

    Now remember these are opinions guys. What I like you may hate and vice versa. With that being said what cigar has let you down or didn't live up to the hype ?

    For me to is most padrons. I know this is blasphemy but I think they are just eh. They do burn absolutely flawless but in the flavor dept they are to me very one dimensional.

    Let's hear your story's

    Well that's a real good idea,,I need to torch the burn pile while the snow is still here.I could throw in the rest of that Dominican Blind sampler that tried to kill me.

    LP 9s

    Most Padrons I've had (good flavor, impeccable construction, but one note)

    My first Cuban cigar (because I expected the heavens to open and angels to sing to me. )

    Those immediately come to mind. I learned to a.) mostly stick to what I think I'll like based on blender, country origin, wrapper type, company and b.) to not have expectations with a new cigar, as hard as that may be.

    I understand about the 9. It's good but I'd pick a t52 user it every day.
