I got my Butt kicked

Last night I had my first Nub, a Cameroon 358. It was a decent smoke but didn't have the wow factor.

Tonight I lit up a Habano 466. This thing is huge! Nice prelight aroma, burned well and very tasty. I made it to about 2/3 of the way then it hit me. POW, WHAM then my head started spinning. I lasted no more than 5 minutes after that. I couldn't nub the NUB (what a let down). I got my A$$ kicked. I even had a huge meal beforehand. I think I better let the others rest for awhile.

I can imagine! I had my first 466 Cameroon yesterday, along with a Sierra Nevada Stout, and things were getting a little skewed then! I'm afraid to try the Habano's I've got!!

I didnt find that cigar to be too strong. Ive certainly had the spins from a cigar before! just not in a while. Hope you at least enjoyed it.

I've had a few smokes make me dizzy but not a Nub. LFD Double Ligero made my head spin but the La Aurora Preferidos Ruby tube put me out for a half hour after a cold sweat and major spins.

I havent had a ruby tubos do that to me. I had a LFD factory press yesterday that made me a bit dizzy. Nothing too bad though!

The first 2/3 was super tasty then it was like hitting a brick wall. The only other time was my first Edge. Had it on an empty stomach. Big mistake.

Sounds like a good one..the 466 Cammy was nice to me, looking forward to a couple Habano's.

I've only had that happen to me once and it was a Cohiba.

I thought the Cameroon was pretty good. I have tried one of each now (Connecticut, Habano, and Cameroon). I am not sure what my favorite is right now. I really liked the Connecticut and Habano. I guess I will try a few more of each before I decide which is my favorite. Give the Connecticut a try as well.

I too found the Nubs tasty, and I don't find them overpowering. Its hard to control myself from smoking one every day... I don't want to go through this box too fast.
