Bances (Corona)
Filler: Honduras

I was on my way to a poker game, without any of my JR Alternatives, so I decided to stop by the tobacco store and found these Bances cigars for $1.29 each. I've been spoiled by the buck-apiece JR Alternatives, which taste as good as the $3-$10 name brands. I thought maybe these would be just as good.

But no, they tasted like cheap cigars. Not only was the construction inferior (so that I was picking bits of tobacco out of my teeth all night) but they were very bland.

To make matters worse, I lost all my chips in an hour and a half. I should have known the cigars would be a bad omen.
