After the Kuba Kuba debacle last night I decided to smoke another cigar to cleanse my palet. I looked into the humidor and picked out I nice little cigar I got recently in a trade (thanks psytek).

A Joya de Nicaragua Antano 1970 Machito (i think it was a Machito). I expected a nice quick little smoke to relax. Well I relaxed all right. I almost passed out! I was looking for a kiss, not a punch in the jaw. :)

It was a very nice smoke, but man, I didn't know what I was getting myself into. It actually made me a little woozy. I'll do a quick bit of research before I smoke my next unkown cigar so I know what to expect.
 
These are tastey cigars! Too bad they are way too f'ing strong. I am really considering buying a couple boxes and letting them sit for 5 years. Just too strong for me to enjoy right now. I have been going through a mild phase lately.

Yeah, exactly. I really liked it while I was smoking it.. It started off really peppery but then smoothed out to a nice richness.. I smoked it to the nub. The problem is 15 minutes later I was sick.
 
Love those Antano.
Smoked a robusto grande i bought from my local cigar shop and the next day i ordered a box of the belicosos.
WOW....second punch-in-your-face smoke i had so far and it was awesome.
My first strong smoke was my first Opus X .........a Petit Lancero :0 .
 
Dude, I tell you, I came close. I was lying in bed concentrating on breathing in and out and ignoring the urge to hurl. I actually thought about doing it just to make myself feel better. It was a lot like being seasick. Being a pirate I'm sure you know the feeling I mean. :)

I couldn't bring myself to smoke tonight. It might be a while before my next smoke. I know it won't happen again with a different smoke, but for the moment thinking about a cigar makes me think I'll get sick again.

From Tony Bone's review:
Needless to say, the Antano was good in a beat-the-ungawdly-hell-out-of-you-and-leave-you-crying-like-a-little-bitch-over-the-kitchen-sink-type-of-way, but I won't touch another one w/ a ten foot steel pole & someone else's lips.

Wow, these sound like fun. Any have one they'd trade away? Hey Tony, where did you buy it?

Now I'm scared to try an Opus X...

Ah, who am I kidding? I get the feeling I'll get over it as soon as the Opii arrive. :D
 
I actually love this cigar and have never had any problems with it. :)

This sounds like a "gotta do it" to me :D
 
You're all madmen! Two reviews of people getting sick makes you want to try them? :)
 
Maybe we should do a 'cigars that made you sick' box pass. :D
