WowBig T...I was seriously considering going for my MOW Badge....You got me pausing now. I am up to at least one per day and some days two. Never been sick....but have experienced the dizziness or buzz effect. Never really concerned me much, but I know the badge will kick harder than anything I have tried yet. I typically enjoy the fuller bodied stiks and I believe I am still gonna have to give the Badge a try.
It hasn't happened to me yet. I generally don't smoke anything over 6" though. I have had some Churchills of some supposed "Strong Blends" but never had it happen to me. The stronger blends leave what I call "Bite" on my palate. Thats about it.
Happened to me for the second time last night. First was with a Cohiba, wasn't too bad got a little light headed, no big deal really. But yesterday was a Rocky Patel 15th, I know what happened though as I got toward the end I started smoking it way too fast. Got light headed, shaky, almost puked but didn't so that was good. Lasted about 20mins then I was fine, learned my lesson though.
I had a Perdomo Habano Corojo in the Gordo size, and that thing really kicked my ass. Sweaty, dizzy, spins, the whole deal. I didn't throw up though. No other cigar has done that to me, and I enjoy full bodied cigars. The LFD Air Bender and the Ruination didn't do this to me, I really enjoyed those ones, and a slight buzz at the end from them.
my first two MOW both gave me a bit of light headedness more so the first time. dont mind the feeling just got to relax for 10-20 min after and all good.
Doesn't happen all that often for me but it does once and a while. As a person who usually has strong cigars in the morning mostly before eating and such I tend to think I'm immune however not to long ago, actually a week or so ago I had a 5 vegas AAA give me a bit of a butt spanking. I wasn't sick or anything but definately light headed. I don't know why exactly but it sucked. I have never got it from a xxx pwr ranger, lfd dl chisel maddy, cains, olvia V maddy/ V or tats but the 5 vegas AAA did a decent job. Though now that Kuzi and other mentioned it I haven't been drinking a lot of water lately, so that may have played into it.
I've defintely got a good nicotine buzz off the standard MOW and a few other powerful sticks (Cain, etc). The only one that's actually started making my stomach do a bit of a flip was an Oliva V I smoked at the SE Herf (Thanks again Sightunseen!). It wasn't enough to make me put it down and went away quickly but there was a "whoa, I need to slow down" moment in the last third. Still nubbed it
I used to smoke Marlboro reds so I am pretty used to nicotine. But I still get my a$$ kicked from time to time. Specially when I have 3 or more "heavy" cigars in one short period of time. Can't wait to try the new Diesel Unlimited!!!!
This is my least favorite part of cigar enjoyment. I was wandering if any one liked it? What cigars did it to you. It seems like cain is a good one for this.
Just had a ruination do this to me! The buzz was fine but i made the mistake of taking one last draw before putting it down (cuz it was SOOO stinkin' good) and the rest is history. With fuller-bodied sticks, i'm gonna stick with my thing about stopping at the band cuz i took this one down to like an inch or less left...

Runi and coffee in the mornin is a great way to start the day
Sometimes I get a bit of a body buzz (JdN Dark Corojo), but I rarely get the complete package of lightheadedness and nausea. The last time that happened to me was probably when I smoked my first Intenso at the beginning of my cigar career. I don't mind the body buzz but I don't like the lightheadedness (and of course the nausea).
I totally hear you on this. The body buzz made me really sick. I had it at a Drew Estates event. I was talking to the rep and I said "hey sorry, I gotta go sit. This cigar is getting me body high." He laughed at me... until I had to go to the bathroom to puke. I still think he's a cool guy though.
For me it was an Oliva Serie V Churchill. I was at an Oliva event at the local B&M with my brother in law and father in law. With all the wives back at my house we didn't have much time to smoke. I sucked down the Churchill in 45 mins. When we got back to the house I become so freakin sick. For some reason I wouldnt let myself puke, I really wish I would have. It was about two hours of hell.
This is my favorite part of smoking I almost get disappointed if I smoke a strong cigar and don't feel it a little. Just got into the antano and dark corojo due to kuzi hyping up the dark. Both fantastic sticks love the trance the antano puts on me, mow pa also is amazing for this. I found a new favorite brand with joya de Nicaragua thanks kuzi.
I have had it happen twice to me. First time was a CAO Soprano and the second time was a Cohiba 1966 EL. I think it was due to me smoking too fast.......No problems since......lol.

Are those CAO Sopranos hype or actually worth it? I saw some at my local BnM. Feedback?
I have smoked so many full bodied cigars over the last few years that I have built a tolerance to it so I find it refreshing when a good smoke gives me a buzz. It does happen now and then.

I've wanted to try the sopranos myself for awhile. I'm curious also.

The RobbyRas is a Soprano "Master". Personally, I enjoy them. Could just be some hype. I consider them a Premium cigar.
