It's the nicotine and combination of not having enough clean air in my system.

Stronger ones to my recollection. I'd be more likely to get sick of off a JdN Antanes versus say a Padron 2000. I would also say it's the compiling effect of the cigars too. Smoking one is fine but 3-5 makes a huge difference.

I'm not fully sure but IMHO it has the same effect as alcohol on an empty stomach. I would assume the food in your system helps absorb the nicotine better?

Too much "Vitamin N."

Yes...and on the same token your tolerance goes away fast if you don't keep it up. I was smoking JdN Antanes and MK Ultras just fine during the warmer time of year..now that I do not get out to smoke much I seem to have a had time with 2-3 party shorts or RS12s.
