The Cigar Buzz Thread

[DougBushBC]

So I don't normally get buzzed too much from Cigars. In fact I don't think I have really been buzzed since the FIRST edition of the Edge that was like friggin Pot.

BUT... Today I just smoked a My Father Lancero and feel like I'm DRUNK... Not sure why I'm sure it is just an effect of numerous factors, but yea...

The question is, what cigar has given you the most/best/worst buzz?

Well, how much have you had to drink? Maybe you are drunk :r

As for me, the only times I remember getting that feeling, and for me it was far more unpleasant than drunk, was when I smoked what was no doubt a fake cuban h. upman tubo I bought in Aruba from some street vendor that was about churchill size, and when I smoked some Fuente in a cedar sleeve one night that caught me completely by surprise. With the fake cuban, it was probably something else in it. With the Fuente, I have no idea what it was about it. I do remember feeling nasty after both - sweats, upset stomach, etc.

The biggest buzz I have ever had can from a Camacho Corojo a couple years ago

[DougBushBC]

I've gotten close to this with a Camacho Triple Maduro

[South Shield]

Believe it or not, the Oliva Connecticut...It kicked my ass and slapped my momma.

[taltos]

JDN Antano Marchito on an empty stomach, El Cobre Robusto a couple of years ago, and an Oliva V that snuck up on me.

[elderboy02]

I once smoked a Nub Habano on an empty stomach. Holy hell, I had cold sweats and other things happening to me that I would rather not talk about :(

[adampc22]

a padron hit me rite in the face last week i have never had that happen with eny of the padrons i have smoked i like them alot

[JJG]

The only time I've gotten really buzzed was off my first box of Party shorts. Don't let the size fool you! Those little f*ckers kicked my ass for a month until I finally got used to the nicotine.

[BeerAdvocate]

Camacho Triple Maduro and RP Winter collection

I concur. That last 1/3 is killer.

[Big Ben]

El Rico Habano. Loved every minute of it.:D

[BlackDog]

An Illusione 68. Kicked my azz.

[yellowgoat]

Bolivar and LFD 6x60 got me real bad a couple times where I had to lay down.

[jonharky]

Actually the G3 was a powerful one for me that I was a little wobbly after smoking it

[acarr]

I never got one unfortunately. Would love to though!

[chippewastud79]

JdN Antano :tu

[skullnrose]

Had a Tat RC 184 early in the day without eating anything. Big mistake man was I green almost like sea sick. I wasn't able to smoke one for quite sometime after the the thought of it made me queasy. I've smoke a few now with no problems even enjoyed them!

[md4958]

The "black ghost" rolled by Fransico, the house blender at Habana Premium in Albany, NY. I was a little weak in the knees after smoking that one, but it was a damn good smoke, only problem is he cant make them fast enough!

[pshicker]

Opus X

[GreekGodX]

CAO LX2.. Had it on an empty stomach, got up to leave and the room was moving.. Massive sugar consumption ensued.

[WildBlueSooner]

Opus X

:tpd: Talk about dizzy...I bout fell over after I finished it!

[Jimbo14]

I was drunk from to much Wild Turkey Rare Breed and I smoked a Montecristo #2 fast.

I was spinning.

[dccraft]

I've had 2 that made me woozy: JDN Anatonio & Taboo SFO.

[bigswol2]

Got a nice buzz from an opus super beli this past weekend.

[Hardcz]

Johnny O lancero had me going

[e-man67]

Don Lino Africa...I smoke 3 on 3 separate occasions and puked twice...not good. I do get quite a good nice buzz off of the Opus though...had Pepin Blue on an empty stomach with just water to drink and got a little green.

[Wondering Nomad]

It's been said a number of times...JDN Antano kicked my butt a few times. There's a lot of power in that little Consul.

[gnukfu]

Swisher Sweet! And the wood tip didn't help at all! :wo

[BigCat]

And the wood tip didn't help at all! :wo

You aren't supposed to smoke that part ;)

[acarr]

I think you are mistaken. The cherry flavored plastic tips are much stronger.

The question is, what cigar has given you the most/best/worst buzz?
I don't think it's any specific cigar for me, just the environment, the way I smoke and my current state.

I've smoked LFDs, JDN Antanos and 601 greens without problems. But I've also smoked Oliva G's and gotten buzzed. Factors that I think affect it:

1. How much air circulation is there in the room I'm smoking?
2. How fast am I smoking it?
3. How much blood sugar do I have at the time I'm smoking?

Worst case was smoking in an enclosed room (winter no way to open a window), smoking a tasty Oliva G Maduro Belicoso (so puffing away too fast) and in the morning before my coffee (so very low blood sugar). About half way, my head started to spin.

That same afternoon, I fired up a 601 Green Robusto, zero issues with buzz.

Two cigars knocked me down for the count... An opus x when I was first getting into smoking cigars (probably should have let my tolerance build up more), and an 898V that I smoked not too long ago... not sure why the Parti kick my a$$ but it did lol... :r

[Mr.Maduro]

AVO 80th - Twice and...

Padron 80th Maduro


...must have something to do with the number 80....:confused: :r

[darkninja67]

I had an El Rey Del Mundo Robusto Supreme that made my legs wobble when I tried to stand up. Antanos? meh, I can smoke those all day now.

[MithShrike]

The biggest buzz I have ever had can from a Camacho Corojo a couple years ago

Yeah I got sick off of one of those. I was green and had to lie down for four hours.

[BryanB]

LFD Cheroot aka Crack Stick. It was awesome. Accidental inhale and it was over. Felt like being drop kicked in the chest. :tu

[Mr. Ed]

Got a nice little buz from the Mi Barrio El Acere this evening. Big smoke, lots of tobacco, smoked really slow :tu

[Mr B]

I once smoked a Nub Habano on an empty stomach. Holy hell, I had cold sweats and other things happening to me that I would rather not talk about :(

:tpd:

[Mr B]

In addition to the Nub Habano Buzz, a La Aroma de Cuba (especial eddition/Pepin blend) hit me hard too. Both were on a fairly empty stomach though.
