I've been smoking something every night in my anxiousness to try everything, and I was smoking a CAO Gold last night that was really hitting the spot. Of course being the newb I started smoking the last 1/3 or so way to fast. Man I havn't been that sick in a long time. :laugh:

I did some deep searching about this today and found some good advice, so hopefully I'll not be repeating that mistake. :blush: The wife got a good laugh though; she said I looked green, and then white. Nicotine poisioning is nothing to laugh at; I've learned my lesson...for now. :p

How not to get sick:
- Never smoke on an empty stomach.
- Carbs and sugar are good to prevent sickness.
- Smoke slowly, 1-2 ppm max until your used to the nicotine.
- Spit or rinse your mouth out to slow absorbtion of nicotine.
- If you start to feel dizzy, slow down and maybe eat or drink something sweet (candy, sugar cube)
- Smoke more cigars to build up tolerance to nicotine. :thumbs:
 
I learned the same lesson a while back. It was an Hoyo Dark Sumatra Espresso accompanied by a whiskey of some kind. It was late in the afternoon and I hadnt eaten anything all day, but I figured I would have a cigar before going out to meet some friends for dinner. Lets just say that may be my worst cigar experience ever. Never happened again though
 
:laugh: Yup! That's the look alright. Fortunately Noone took any pics last night. :blush:
 
It warms my heart to know I have helped a fellow BOTL with a new experience....But, you might want to watch out for a couple of the other ones too! :laugh:

I have never been down that road. I guess nicotine and scotch makes up the primary component of my blood. :laugh: There was a couple of times that a cigar really laid me out tho but never toss my cookies.
 
I never turned green, but I got a couple of VR Don Alejandros (the smoke that got me into this wonderful habit) and gave one to my brother-in-law and as we were finishing up, he forgot for a moment what he was smoking and took a nice inhale and he sure as hell turned green!
 
Well that was the problem...those CAO Gold's are waaay to strong....should stick with the litto gomez's or the JDN Antano's. ;)


I dont think I turned green or got sick to my stomache the first time I smoke a gar at 19 when I ran out of cigs and had to steal one of dad's gars.I have only had two instances in the past few months where while smokeing a certain cigar I felt it in my stomach but not in a bad way or too much where I got sick,I kind of liked it actually.Never got a headrush either.
 
I've had this happen to me a couple of times. The offending smokes were an Opus and a Fuente Double Chateau Natural. I'm not sure how the natty happened, but the Opus I have a clear memory of. Oh well!
