Need Opinions

[rokkitsci]

I would like to hear about the baddest, kick-ass cigar you have ever smoked.

I prefer nice, full-bodied, full-flavored, MANLY, strong stogies (love the maduro, double and triple ligero wrappers) that grab you by the balls and make you pay attention. Have had many that are purported to be not for the beginner or the faint of heart or not on an empty stomach or not while driving or operating heavy machinery. No problem.

However, I recently smoked the only cigar that has ever made me put it down for fear of departing this earthly realm. I will not reveal the cigar until I've heard from a few of you blokes regarding your experiences. But I will say that although this is the only cigar that has ever bested me, it was also phenomenally tasty. A love/hate, attraction/repulsion kind of thingie. And, no, it was not a Cuban.

So, let's hear about it. Tell me about any cigar that made you come out second best.

Waiting...

Funny you should ask as I noticed this thread again earlier.

Personally, the only cigar I've had that gave me a bit of a wallop was a SC La Fuerza, but I hadn't eaten...

Morning.

I used to have a bad habit of attacking my first cigar early in the morning with a cup of tea.


There have been a few i have attempted which are best not smoked early in the morning on an empty stomach, these included;

• Partagas SP2
• Partagas SD4
• Cohiba robusto
• RASS

Like Rokkitsci, i had to have a couple of attempts at the SP2 in particular and there is that love/hate thing which develops.

Nowadays I stick to a little Petite corona first thing in the morning.

Being a 'regular' smoker, I haven't had a kiss ass experience of any sticks as yet. However, I've only been smoking in earnest since the begrinning of the year, so time may tell.

I've inadvertently inhaled once or twice and that kicked my friggin lungs through my arse, if that counts?

La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero Chisel, Kick Ass cigar! Also, the RyJ Cazadorez.

A pretty strong cigar that doesn't get much of a mention around here is the Party Churchill de Luxe. Full of flavour and a great smoke.

La Flor Dominicana Double Ligero Chisel. Was a full body full flavor smoke till I found a SOTL burning them at a HERF 1 after the other! TRUE Story! Then the La Flor Dominicana 06 Factory Press 2 hrs. of pure pleasure. Split a crate (yes I said crate)
10 trays of 12 with 2 other BOTL and have 6 singles left for my daughters weading in 8+years. Ass kikin cigars

I think the following cigars are considered "strong" but it all depends on how much you smoke I suppose

Camacho Triple Maduro
LFD Double Ligero Chisel
Opus X Power Ranger
Cain F (Haven't tried these yet)
Camacho Negro
Tatuaje Cojonu

The only cigar that has made me feel woozy, was an Anejo #46 on an empty stomach at 10am! Never again

I had a RASS early in the day without any food in me and it gave my brains a good old stir. I'm a bit wary of them now.

Funny you say that, ive only seen it mentioned on the forums once before by Steevieboy.

I like the churchill size so went on a crazy hunt for these a while back to no avail. Eventually found them and then ordered but got a message saying they were out of stock

Still on my "to try" list...
