Inexpensive "store" cigars

ABQChris · 12-31-2013, 05:05 PM

Hi, chaps -- me again. I hope everyone had a terrific Christmas, and that you're planning on having a safe New Year's!

This is a tight month, and I can't be precious about the cigars I'm smoking. I hope to get back to the good stuff (Maria Mancini, mainly) early in the new year. For now, I seek nicotine, to tide myself over.

I've been searching online for hours, to no avail -- does anyone know which cheap retail cigars contain plenty of nicotine? I'm still avoiding returning to cigarettes, and I want to make sure that I get my nicotine from cigars, so that the temptation isn't there (or at least remains surmountable). I don't inhale cigar smoke.

The stores in my area sell the usual brands -- Swisher Sweets, Phillies, Dutch Masters, etc. I'd appreciate any guidance in the area of nicotine content within store-brand cigars. Thank you!

Of those brands you've mentioned, the ones I have tried were all pretty wretched tasting and didn't really pack much of anything except chemicals (possibly the same ones used in cigarettes). IMO, you're probably better off with the nicotine gum.

The electronic cigarette cartridges have 24 mg, which is higher than most cigars (5 to 20).

Backwoods? Muniemaker?

Garcia y Vega English Coronas?

Thanks for the replies, guys. I suppose the last three are assumed to have at least some nicotine content in them? (At the least, I suppose I could just order something online.)
