The problem I have with the tobacco review site is that it doesn't really give me what I'm looking for. I'm looking for people's opinions of stuff to categorically stay away from.
For example, if some noob asked me the same question about cigars, I'd suggest he categorically stay away from Gurkha and 5 Vegas, among others. Obsidian, all Fonsecas, Black Pearl, CI Legends, Cu Avana, Graycliff, Xikar, Hesitant Pirate, etc. IMHO those are all crap cigars in every vitola and every line. That's a complete generalization, of course. There might be a Gurkha out there that's great. But a noob won't go wrong by staying away from any of those listed above because they have a general reputation for sh*ttiness. On a review site, some of those might even garner some decent reviews by people who like them.
What I'm looking for in this thread is for folks to state their opinions about what to completely avoid. I realize they're opinions only.
Just like thatUnless its mixture 79. Just avoid that stuff and all should be good.
At this point I'm trying them all.Do you have any idea of the types of tobacco you like to smoke(e.g. Virginia, Burley, English, Aromatics)?
