Disappointed with my first RP Fusion

Same with me, I don't think I'll be in a hurry to try one.

You might want to give it a try,,at least once. I happen to enjoy the Fusion after it has set in my humidor for awhile. Anything fresh off the boat you take a chance as far as taste. Some palates are more discriminating and everyone has their own tastes,,,thank God we have so many cigars!!!

I hate to be the one, but my palate finds them ok. Havent smoked too many, but, they all have been just fne smokes. Seems to me we get way overcritical about a looseleaf, or a slight explosion (lol), but this has happened to me on very expensive sticks, too! For the money, it is ok...!
Though I have bought several boxes, I would highly recommend RP's Esteban Carrera's for the price, especially the maduro's. But, there are so many good cigars out there at a decent price, dont get hung up on construction or a little explosion here and there when you pay a relatively low price for them. Just remember, all cigars are equal, some are more equal than others! People are like that, too!
Best,

I should say in all honesty that I haven't completely given up on them. I'm still hopeful that they'll improve with age or my palate will mature or change and I'll find them to be real nice. I have lots of cigars so I have plenty of time to see what develops. I'm not gonna throw them out.

The regular Fusion I like fine. The Fusion MM Double Maduro is a whole other story. Just blech.
