What do you smoke?

Personally, I've quit cigarettes a few months ago after smoking them for about 8 years or so years. I smoked Davidoff Gold and Marlboro Gold every now and then. I really really like them but I'm a bit scared of the health effects. I actually tried again the other day (pretty wasted) and found it disgusting. Good news I guess ahah

Since I've quit cigarettes I have a few cigars every now and then (perhaps one / two per month) and I absolutely love it! With a nice whisky and some music it's very nice. 

I've tried both weed and vaping but didn't really like either. 

So what do my fellow monkeys smoke and when? 

 

A friend of mine smokes dohka tobacco - you put the tobacco into a small pipe and take 1-2 hits, gives you a nice headrush. Apparently it doesn’t have the chemicals or cigarettes but way more nicotine than cigarettes (not sure if true, just what I’ve heard). It’s popular in the UK and Middle East though I’ve met several smokers in NA. I’ve tried it and the headrush is great but it’s quite harsh, probably not good for the lungs long term

 

Yeah it can definitely look sketch if you’re pulling out and filling a pipe in public.

I’ve personally tried to get into cigars but I used to smoke cigarettes so my instinct is to inhale, don’t really know how to enjoy a cigar yet

Cigars forsure. Nothing better than finishing a night out with a good stogie. Pair it with a nice bourbon or scotch and you're in heaven. I've never really found them addictive either given how heavy they are. It's no secret they make your lungs feel heavy as shit the next day so it's not exactly sustainable for most folks.

 

facts. makes you feel like you're on another planet for a while. With some nice music I genuinely find it to be one of the most enjoyable experiences. 

As per the heavy lungs part, it's true that I sometimes feel a bit out of a breath but I think that's because I keep inhaling cigar (very used to cigarettes). 

 

I tried cigars a few times, not too bad, but they always gave me the runs and I had to puke once or twice. Weed is cringe, literal NPC drug, also it stinks. Pipe tobacco smells pretty nice, reminds me of my Grandpa, but it seems a really impractical way.

...and the Truth shall set you free
