Which stick do you smoke with caution?

JDN Antano Dark Poderosa and JDN Antano Gran Consul. Both are high octane but I do love them both.

LOVE it! It never fails, my friend. Between you and @Old Smokey , I can always find a post to laugh about!

Oliva Cain in Habano and JDN 1970. Neither will make me sick but they let you know your smoking something with some gusto.

Haven't had a cigar do me in, so to speak so I haven't approached any with caution. I used to dip Kodiak for many years so I suspect I have a fairly high tolerance for nic.

True enough, @izkeh . Dip is 100% Ligero

I have to laugh to keep from crying.....

Not sure if this counts, but a Macanudo Crystal Cafe made me very nauseous. Of course, it was the second cigar I'd ever smoked, and only the third time smoking anything.

I also learned to have something to drink during and not do it on an empty stomach :)

Now, the first time I tried Kodiak I SHOULD HAVE approached it with caution. Nothing like hanging your head out your friend's VW Rabbit doing 50 down a country road while drooling uncontrollably and nearly vomiting...

LOL....in the beginning we tend to inhale more then we should. Probably what turned you green....

Liga Privada, Joya de Nicaragua, Cain Ligeros......they can definitely creep up on you.

I always make sure I eat first.

Anything made by EP Carillo....they look so inviting and pleasant.

Then they turn around and catch me by surprise with their strength.

I love Casa Fernandez Aganorsa, but have to make sure I don't smoke too fast or else...Some root beer or some food usually takes care of the buzz in short order.

Along with the obvious mentioned, I would add Viaje OSOK and even more so Berger & Argenti Entubar. That will kick your ass if you're not ready for it.

I had a Montecristo Epic one Saturday morning after a night of imbibing pretty good. Got the nic sweats about 3/4 of the way through. Not totally sure it was the stick, but I'll be more careful if I go for another one of those.

Count me amongst those who have been hammered by a Le Bijou 1922.
