As a bored college student, I recently took up smoking cigars. The kind that I chose to acquire are Djarum Black clove cigars, which look like fat cigarettes and probably actually are.
Had my third this week and, man! Sitting here with the aftertaste in my mouth is pretty irritating! This a sign I should stop? I suppose it's not the wisest option in any case, but, when in Rome I guess...

If you hate the aftertaste, then yes, you should probably stop.

Oddly it didn't bother me that much the previous two times. Needless to say I'm quite disappointed this time around.

It's like when I started smoking Black & Milds. The first couple were fine, but after that, they all started tasting horrible, even making me a little nauseous. I immediately stopped. I don't smoke cigarettes of any kind, well, except the occasional green one.

These are "cigars" in the absolute loosest definition.
I used to smoke a nice Macanudo every now and again. Great little smokeshop in Laramie where I bought a few and the nice old lady that would make recommendations. Loved the Macanudo Crystal ones...
I got over Black and Milds and Swisher Sweets and the same ilk when I discovered the enjoyment of a real cigar, not something from behind the counter at a gas station.
One of these days, for a special occasion, I plan to invest in something very nice...a Cohiba or something.
As an occasional thing, I suppose they're no worse than many things...but I wouldn't make a habit of gas station "cigars." They reek, they taste hellish, and as you stated, they're not terribly healthy.

Djarum Blacks are absolutely terrible for you. So if you feel compelled to stop, you should stop, yeah.
That said, I actualy like the taste/aftertaste, and find them smoother and easier to smoke than a regular cigarette. I seldom smoke, but when I do, it's these. I intend to quit soon again though.

I smoked regular Djarum clove cigarettes for years, they taste much MUCH better than the blacks. And smoking them helped start more conversations at bars/clubs with women than i care to remember. Women seem to love the smell! On the downside....they wreck your lungs!!!  |
