So I found out that my my Factory Throw-outs are by Fuente and JC Newman. They aren't bad, especially after they sit inside my humidor for a day or two.
Just to get into factory throw-outs really quick. Usually they are rolled with left over tobacco leaves. Instead of tossing out the imperfect shorter leaves, tobacco manufacturers will roll these and sell these with out a label. Some say they are pretty good, others may say they are indifferent. But this is how I enhance my factory throw-outs so I walk away with a supreme smoke.
I take orange peels, wrap them in a netted bag, similar to the one oranges come in, or I may use those netted covers that come with wine bottles. I tie the ends with the orange peels in them. I drop the orange peels in a humidor with my factory throw-outs. I don't let the cigars touch the orange peels because it can absorb too much of its moisture. The floor of the humidor is covered with coffee beans or you can use whole tea leaves of your preferred flavor. And then I may leave a shot or two of rum inside, contingent on the size of the humidor. You can experiment by improvising with stuff you like.
Other great things to add in your humidor is cayenne pepper, black pepper, grounded coffee if you have no coffee beans and mint leaves. Things like cayenne pepper and black pepper are good to sprinkle in the rum that is sitting in the humidor.
I will let my cigars sit with my concoction in the humidor at least 24 to 48 hours before I smoke my first cigar.
The orange peels gives the cigar moisture. They make great replacements if you don't have any humidor solution or moisture packs. Plus it enhances the flavor. And you don't really taste the orange. Orange peels have to be changed weekly, because they will start to go bad at some point. Orange peels can be great in the humidor but they have to be monitored regularly.
This is cost effective, recession proof and great for the cigar lover who always want a top notch smoke.
Truthfully, a good cigar is what you deem it to be.
Salute
About JC newman and Fuente Factory Throw-outs:

For those in the know these hidden treasures are one of the best priced cigars on the market today. They are made from the same tobacco, grown in the same renowned Ecuadorian fields, as that used for the well known Fuente and JC Newman cigars. In order for a leaf to be used in a higher priced ($8 to $10 a stick) premium cigars they have to be an even color. The leaves used in the No 59 Throw-outs are slightly off color so they cannot be used in the much higher priced Fuentes. These small color differences do not effect the flavor. These are truly a tremendous value for your smoking dollar.
These usually average no more than a $1.00 per stick. You can get an entire bundle for the cost of one or two premium cigars.
