Crooner- tried it once...just can't do it. Gave the basically full tin to one of my guys at work and he loved it.
Cotton Ball Twist - difficult to lite and when you do get it going it tastes and smells like you are smoking a fart!
They quit making Hobbit's Weed in Colorado and I always wanted to try it. When it resurfaced, I bought 4 ounces and wanted to like it but it was way too fake cherry and light. It got donated to a friend of mine who has made a good home for it.
Robert Mc Connell - Red Roses. Really horrible. I almost wanted to throw away the pipe I smoked that in.
Glad I didn't because it is a very fine pipe but it took a long time to get rid of the smell of Red Roses. I kept the nearly full tin just to remember that I will never smoke that again.

The worst tobacco I ever smoked is a John Dengler Blend called Bagdad. It is fowl, and gives latakia a bad name as it truly is a latakia bomb. But NOT in a good way. It's a shame because John had so many wonderful blends. I could never understand why he kept this one around.
Frosty Mint - is NEVER to be smoked by itself. EVER. It is a true dedicated blending tobacco. Right now I happen to be smoking a blend I labeled EZ2 - it is a 7:1 ratio of 1Q and Frosty Mint. When using frosty mint tobacco, do so only with no more than the ratio I mentioned above. Then, let it age a bit and mellow. It is a condiment and to be used sparingly so.
Here is a review I did a while back - watch my reaction when smoked straight.
Heh... you already quoted me and gave the recipie on page 1 :D
It is good.
It is good.
So far, it must be Crooner by C&D for me. Only smoked one bowl of it and was barely able to finish it.
I knew it was polarizing when I ordered it, but wasn't expecting to dislike it so much. And it ghosted the pipe, too, so I got to "enjoy" the taste for a few more smokes. Brrr.

I don't think I posted this already. For me it was Rattray's Exotic Orange (Passion?). I like orange but it is purfumey orange with a vengeance. Added to finding it to bite and I ghosted up one of my Virginia pipes with the stuff gets it a place as one of the worst tobaccos I have smoked.
Sir Walter Raleigh, smells oddly like a diaper? I don't know but I do know it's not for me. Instantly tossed it and brushed my teeth
lol, it must have been a slow day for me. Either that, are I havent recovered from my Turkey coma.
Too much turkey, indeed...
I must have had the Passion then because it did both in large measure.
It was weird how much it changed. Orange had a light zest flavor. Passion is like orange candy.
I found the tin today organizing my office and it was Passion. I think I never had the Orange but for sure don't like the Passion variant.
Autumn Evening, smoked in my Peterson 314, was so bad it gave me PAD.
I hated it at first smoke, but I tried to at least understand it for half a bowl. Wasn't happening. I dumped it and scrubbed my pipe, but no matter what I did, everything I smoked after that half bowl tasted like gas-station-tier maple imitation syrup. I soaked the bowl in salt and everclear and finally got the pipe back to neutral. At that point, I dedicated the pipe to BCA, bought a second pipe for English, and bought some cobs for anything new.
Of course, when I got my BCA and English pipe, I needed another pipe for aromatics. And Non-Englishes. And ooh, this other pipe is pretty...
Autumn Evening was an extremely expensive mistake.

I really wanted to like this blend, but I just can't. Captain Black Grape. Nasty cough syrup stuff IMHO.
I’m fascinated with Five Brothers which you say is your least likable blend OP, most people who actually enjoy it say they don’t even get much flavor from it hence why it being used to up the nicotine in other blends. But every morning when I smoke it I’m smitten with just how brown sugary sweet and nutty it actually is to me, and I mostly smoke Va’s and vaper, hardly any Burleys. The flavor I find in it satisfies me like a sweet dark Virginia, it’s one of my favorite tasting blends but only in sub 19mm chambers does it retain this sweetness.
Since the topic of this thread is blends you cannot stand, that would have to be a tie between Haunted Bookshop and Solani Aged Burley Flake. HB to me tastes like sour dry soil, and ABF like mossy wet soil.
