Cigars are a bit different. The chemicals aren't absorbed into your system with the same efficiency as they are with cigarettes or even chew for that matter...

Can't beat that kind of money savings and get rid of the smell too, if you can get the same reaction off it.
As far as cravings go, I'm much more stable on e-cigs than I ever was when I was smoking regular cigs. With as many places as there are now that are non-smoking, I'd have to go one, two, three, four hours or more without a cigarette and I'd start to get irritated and grumpy. With my e-cig, I can take a puff or two at a time every so often no matter where I am and it keeps me on an even keel . . . and now I smell like a candy shop

I've been thinking about the e-cigs, since the patch doesn't seem to be working for me anymore, and cold turkey just leaves a trail of dead bodies in my wake.

I can't do cheesecake smokes though. What do you have that tastes like a Winston?

Once you get your taste buds back I think you'll find the desert flavors are very, very good, but in the mean time, the tobacco flavors I have are:

Red USA - Probably my favorite, but the least popular for some reason. Very smooth, mellow tobacco flavor.
3&5 - Richer than the USA mix, but still a simple tobacco flavor.
RY4 - Rich, sweet, nutty tobacco flavor.
Havana - A little richer than even RY4 and maybe a little sweet, but still very good.

I don't really like suggesting one over the other since everybody's taste buds are different, but those are my impressions of them. I have customers who regularly buy 3&5, RY4, and Havana and they all say theirs is the best Not many of my current customers buy the Red USA, but like I said, it's my favorite out of all the tobacco flavors I have right now.

Here's a lovely article I found about the FDA vs. the E-Cig industry - http://www.lewrockwell.com/orig11/fetters1.1.1.html

Do you sell the regular e-cigs or the explodey kind?

I thought you rise people from the dead... not put them there....

Plus one on the tastebud thing. My buddy had to stop smoking for the police academy for the fitness testing. He vaped for a bit, but in the end, he just quit. The big thing was his sense of taste and smell came back after he went to vaping. You might actually enjoy it after you break that taste for tobacco....
