Those are the only two I have actually felt ill from. Particularly the Antano.

These and the Cain F lancero.

That particular LFD along with some Grand Marnier actually had me paying tithes to the porcelain god once:pu

Same goes for oliva V double coronas even after a heavy meal it made me feel sick.

I've yet to try the PP however an Oliva V with a dram or four of Lagavulin is an excellent way to wind down the day.

Although full bodied, I don't find them all that strong

I chew a can or two of snuff a day, so it's real tough for me to get a nic buzz.
A couple nice, full bodied cigars are El Cobre (Oliva) and El Original Maduro (House blend from Island smoke shop in Key Largo, get the Toro).
The only cigars that I can think of off the top of my head that gave me a nic buzz were a particular Anejo (big ring, 50+) when I was going to see my tax guy a few years ago and more recently a Padron Family Reserve 46 Anniversary Maduro. It kicked both me and my buddy in the ass and we're both nicotine whores of the first degree.

The only time I thought I was going to hurl was after putting in a dip of Kodiak while I was at the very tail end of smoking a 601 Green. (cigar lounge bet)

I'll hunt down The El Cobre and give her a whirl

The El Original is the better of the two, if you're looking for strong. They're real similar in taste. The El Cobre used to be stronger, but now it's produced for the masses, so it's not as nasty as it used to be. It's still real good, though. Kind of a milder El Original.
Seek out that El Original Toro Maduro. It's got a finish that'll stick with you for two days. You'll LOVE it. :D

How about a Diesel Unlimited ??? I've had that one kick me in the head on an empty stomach....But the JDN,, El Cobre, 601 LaBomba, Cain F & LFD all get a vote for me. I love strong sticks as well. The only problem is all the mild sticks I stocked up on when starting my slide down the slippery slope !!

I didn't care for the Diesels flavor, so quite honestly I didn't pay any attention to their strength.

The El Cobre is the only one you listed that I've yet to try.

If you don't find any of the cigars mentioned in this thread powerful enough, look for something beyond cigars for that "power".

Lol...Im not looking for that kind of high

Just a stick that kicks my ass proper and tastes good at the same time.

Like I said, I know I'm not quite right in the head

;)

Well, I've learned of a few that I've yet to try so I'll be seeking those out

That was the point of this thread.

The hunt is the fun part for me anyway.

Take 3 Edge Maduros, tie a string around the cap area, and smoke all three at once. That should give ya a nice sized nic kick.

Diggers are great...I'm not sure if I ever had a Mysterio

Forgot this one, but my first Anejo Shark a few years back kicked my ass too... I smoked it fresh. Something about that big ring gauge box-press funnelling down to the tapered end. Give that a shot. Just barely clip the head and you might be in business!

+1 on the Fausto. Very strong and very good.

I personally felt that the Davidoff Millenium blend is pretty strong
