Anyway I would like to avoid getting sick at all cost, I just started smoking cigars a little while ago and really enjoy(and would like to continue).


Is there anyway to tell if a cigar has ALOT of nicotine in it befor you smoke it (so i can pace myself)
what are the tell a tail signs of a cigar that might make you sick?
I noticed the flor de oliva corjo's has a 'fishey' smell when i first opened them, its been a few weeks in the humi and that smell is going away.
And when people say a cigar is stong they mean high nicotine right? a full body is flavor country, while strong is used to describe the nic kick... right?

Any info on this aspect of cigars would be nice thanks

First off - don't inhale cigars. The cigar you smoked, and got sick with is what I would consider a mild cigar.

Well my original post back in march...no sickness sence then..graduated to the full bodied but still require the sugar water to keep things in check. Now im spoiled on the full strength cigars, if its not a DP,padilla (48,32) or RP grown I cant get into it everything else is tasting flat..........ha

A small dish of ice cream is a wonderful chaser to a cigar.
