I'm on the road traveling and never smoke all week until I get home. I can say that there is no addiction for me. I just enjoy lighting up a great stick and relax.

Just my opinion so don't scream at me.
Don't know "Cigar Dave", or anything about his broadcasts on the radio - but there is definitely a difference between smoking cigarettes versus smoking a cigar.

I smoked for quite a long time when I was younger, and quit about 20+ years ago. I am no longer addicted to Nicotine (it took well over a year for me to shake off the effects - never realized it was that powerful). I know I'm getting a significant dose of Nicotine while smoking cigars, but I do not feel the same about my need for nicotine (I don't need nicotine - I don't miss it when I don't smoke a cigar).

I have noticed that since I quit smoking cigarettes my taste has returned. I very much enjoy the subtle flavors in a fine cigar. Cigarettes never offered me the same pleasure. So - I tend to avoid cigars that do not give me pleasure when I smoke them (e.g. Macanoodles, White Owls, etc).

BTW - so glad you joined the board! I've been wanted to give RP feedback - your Edge is AWESOME! For the money - it has few equals. And in my view - one of the best you produce.
