lewis martinez - Ive suggested them to people as a cheap NC cigar and ive had several packs of 5 that i use as a fishing/shooting cigar that have been ok not complex but a mild enjoyable smoke right up untill i got a new box of them a few days ago they have gone right off the ball even though they are nothing above mild all 5 smelled like dung and tasted like cardboard and a low quality cardboard at that wont be buying more of them thats for sure.

I have to say despite only really just starting to appraciate cigars now, down the years i have experimented with a few really bad ones but without the knowledge i have now, in fairness 15 years ago there was no internet like we have today so no forums like this to get advice from, it was not easy to know good cigars from the bad if you didnt know anyone actually smoked a proper Cuban or the like. Anyway, my first cigars where like you have all said, those vile and nasty Hamlets, which every time i smoked tasted dreadfull and used to get really hot quickly, i thought this was the norm lol. After have a few of these a year, couple for Birthdays and the traditional Xmas cigar with the old man, i moved onto Cafe Creme, jesus they were even worse. I suppose what i thought was smart at the time was the nice little tin they came in. To cap all this off, i ever used to know that you are not supposed to inhale the smoke either, how stupid do i feel. I guess in a funny way this has been good for me as im now starting to appreciate a good cigar
