I learned a lesson against buying cigars from dodgy shops. I went into one a while back to see if they had any codger blends, all they had besides stealth RYO was CB and BR so I passed on that. However they had a small humidor so I grabbed a cigar from there. I picked a La Aurora Ecuador, which has been discontinued since La Aurora has retooled as a super luxury brand. Today I finally decided to smoke it and it was so dry, even though my tupperdor is at 75 humidity right now. I took a cold draw to make sure the cut was good and it tasted so bitter. I lit it up and a plume of smoke came up and hit my throat, causing me too cough. The smoke was even more bitter, almost tasted spoiled so I put it out and tossed it in the trash. I got mild nic sickness from it, just enough to be unpleasant but not bad enough to where I needed to lay down with a trash can next to me. I'm never buying cigars from a store that sells kratom and porn DVDs again.
