If you made a cigar out of another substance other than tobacco you could but tobacco belongs to the genus nicotina , hence where you get nicotine from the alkaloid in tobacco
If they can do De-Caff coffee why cant they do De-Nicotined Cigars?
Just a thought.......
- different materials
- nicotine isn't the bad thing. Nitrosamines are.
- age a cigar for more than 20 years and they will have little to no more nicotine in them.
Some more than others. Of course, a Salamones will lose nicotine much slower than a half corona for a variety of reasons.
But it's generally regarded that nicotine, tannic acids, polymers, and other large and/or volatile molecules in cigars degrade over time making an aged cigar a smoother cigar.
Maybe there is an element of dancing with the devil? We all know smoking in any form is potentially addictive and harmful and maybe that's all part of the fun? Like riding bare back or playing Russian roulette?
Smoking is more habit than addiction.
The nicotine only stays in your body for a few hours, so if you are a casual smoker (1 a day or say 3 a week) like quite a lot of the other members on the forum then it should not be an issue.
