There is much more nicotine in the average cigar than the average cigarette.

I know that, but would nicotine harm me as much as if I was smoking cigarettes since you inhale cigarettes? And how many cigarettes make up for a cigar? 5-6?

It's harmful to different areas. The throat and mouth region is damaged more by cigar smoking, obviously.
I was searching for a site that had the average nicotine amounts in different types of tobaccos and their associated mediums of smoking, but I can't find it.

Yeah, I think the most common result is mouth cancer among cigar smokers... I tend to smoke cigars with a alcoholic drink, so I don't know if that helps or makes it even worse? But I don't think flavored half sized cigars (not cigarillos though!) are as bad as real ones... but I don't know much about cigars, I just smoke them because I like the taste.

Don't fool yourself.

Coming from an American, that's too funny

"I don't smoke cigarettes, they are gross, I smoke weed."

....marijuana smells much better.

I had a Cohiba last week. Supposedly the best out there, but tobacco doesn't really do anything for me. I'll stick to hookahs and weed.

Love cigars.

You might want to give Drew Estate a try (a good friend of mine had my try one, been in love ever since ). They have alot of different lines of cigars, ranging from very flavorful (with botanicals and such) to more "earthy" ones that have a subtle taste.

The problem with Drew Estate is that they are hard to find in walk-in type shops (I have one close to me, but that only one I found that has a great selection) and I don't like ordering online b/c alot of times you'll get dry cigars that have lost most of the flavor.

I'm looking forward to their Suaza line, pretty much cigars made with Tequila

I used to love smoking cigars until I got a pipe. 6.50 for an ounce of pearl and pleasant. Taste beats any cigar I have ever had.

 

[EMPshockwave82]

i do... bought 2 cigars from the tinderbox (a decently well known franchise) and they were moldy... watch out for the 6.50 Romeo y Julieta's

Been smoking cigars for quite a while. I am a big Maduro guy, my favs are the Hemingway Classic and WoA maduros, Hemingway Untold Story, Daimond Crown #7 maduro, 8-5-8 Maduro, and most of the new LFD maduros. Also good are the Partagas SD#4, #3 SE and the shorts.

Any CF BotL's here?

Try Remy Extra with a good cigar and you will be drinking less coffee with your cigars.

That's a cognac right? Not familiar with it.

i smoke one or two cigars a month. i usually smoke acid kuba kuba, cao gold, and very rarely, ill treat myself to a fuente opus-x. the local cigar shop has a massive humidor and i want to smoke one of almost every cigar in there, but there are just way too many.

 

[The Blue Factor]

since deplyed i have been smoking romeo y julieta's No3 and Monticristo. I think that Cubens are way over rated. id rather smoke my marlbro's

 

[Xyclone]

Cigars = bleh! igust;

 

[meltdown75]

i like Old Port Colts on the golf course once in a while, or smaller cigarillos such as Swisher Sweets. you aficionados out there would love the cigars they sell in the humidors near where i work Cubans

I haven't smoked anything in my life and have no plans to. Whatever floats your boat I guess.

That's that saying one pile of feces is more visually appealing than another pile.
