is it possible a bad Fuente hemingway?

Ive had a bunch of best sellers aging in my humi for a couple years maybe at most 2, anyway I wanted a nice short smoke this evening so I grabbed one. I was at first impressed with the easier than normal draw great prelight flavor, and it lit very nicely too, in other words so far all the indications of a fantastic better than average Hemingway experience. Then a third of the way through it got terribly bitter and harsh so much that I nearly tossed it after a single very bad puff, it went from good to bad in 1 puff. Im just kinda surprised.

That's unheard of in my book! Every Hemingway I've ever had was absolutely flawless! Easily in my top 5. I guess sometimes bad things do happen to good sticks! I'm sorry for your misfortune, hearing that makes me want to cry

Blasphemy,,lol! I have not had a "bad" hemingway but I sure have had some that were better than others. As you go thru your cigar lives you will happen on to a cigar from any brand that might be a bad one,,,it happens.

Maybe you just had a bad one. Try another.

I would think it impossible to prevent a single stem from slipping in there 100% of the time.

Never had a bad one myself, but I am sure it could happen. They are rolled by humans. Try another, and if it's bad, maybe it has to do with storage.

I smoked one Signature natural that was so completely bad on every level that I gave up the whole line.

I have ran into a couple of poorly constructed Hemi's. You just chalk it up to human error and move forward.

Joe!

I am very sorry to hear that!

Did you try to save it by purging the gar?

It's a cigar-The question is not whether you can get a bad stick but how many will you get over the long haul. The history on Hemingways is you will get very few bad sticks!
