I really dislike the nicotine buzz! Never leaves me feeling good.Nicotine buzz.....
I like strong smokes mostly bec I find that a strong cigar has strong full flavor as well. There are exceptions but this is what I found to be true.usually the case.

no..not THAT Dave!
I can hardly taste milder cigars...
I'm talking about the nicotine content. Of course I prefer something that tastes good, has a nice construction and is strong to boot. Most of the strong cigars I have smoked so far fits this bill. LFD double ligera, La Flor Cubana, Partagas Black. I would not tend to buy something just for strength if it did not hold some promise of flavor as well though.

Gotcha... i just think a lot of people dont yet realize that a "full" flavored cigar has nothing to do with the nicotine content... even though full and full generally go hand in hand
:tpd: I have a poor sense of smell and taste so the stronger cigars work better for me most of the time
A strong after dinner smoke guarantees me a good nights sleep.
With regards to strong flavor (not nic content)
It's rare for me to get a free 90 minutes to smoke a cigar. Lately I've been getting maybe two a week. For that reason, when I get a full evening free and go to a buddies house to smoke cigars, I will have two cigars back-to-back.
Unless the first cigar is mild flavored, or the second cigar is strong flavored, I pretty much can't taste the second cigar. For that reason I am starting to keep both mild flavor and strong flavor cigars in my humi.

...and when I can, they taste like Pall Malls.
I am not much on the nic buz but I do like the stronger and "spicy"smokes. I like the slight burn in my thoat and the flavor when exhaled through the sinus.
I do enjoy mild and meduim flavors as well. Just depends on my mood. Right now I'm in the mood for a PAM 26 but will have to wait a few more hours.

I think this may be a big reason why Acids, Swisher and Cremosa do so well with beginners. If you can't taste something while smoking these, your palette is dead.
No sense in dancing around nicotine like it is the devil. Yeah sometimes I want some. Most of my cigars are mild but after a few drinks I like to have a strong cigar. Lately I have been doing good to have 1 a week so obviously I am not addicted so who cares? As hard as I work I have no problems with playing hard when I get a chance.
I agree with Andrew. It's not so much the buzz--the fuller-flavored cigars just tend to be more full-bodied (but not always--you can get a buzz of nearly any double corona). Of course, the buzz doesn't hurt lol.
