I have smoked one or two Obsidians in different vitolas over the past couple years and don't remember them being remarkable, but they were at least ok. I bought a couple tins of these Half Coronas for the free shipping a few months back when I needed some short smokes.

Now I've tried two of these things, and can't get further than an inch into them before pitching both. They taste like burning wax, and smell bad too. Frankly, they're repugnant and not even close to smokeable. Anyone else try this vitola? Could I have gotten the dud of all dud batches?
