Powerhouse Sticks

Surprised it hasn't been mentioned but the Ferel Pigs are pretty stout.
Also if your going to try a LaFlor Double Ligero, go with the Chisel size and just punch it on the top and the bottom. That should give you some kick if your not a regular to stronger cigars.

I found the FFP's to be on ther lighter side of full and I smoke LFD DL Chisels often, especially the maduro.

I am a regular to full bodied sticks...

I'm seeking out the cigar that will put in me firmly in my seat and question whether I should stand back up too quickly.

If you smoke these regularly you may have a hard time finding something to give you that kick in the jaw your looking to get. You may want to give the Cu-Avana Punisher a try although it may not give you a nic buzz but will give you some spice.

Yeah, that's why I'm asking here to see if I'm missing the hammer of all cigars.

Punishers...BTDT

Surprised I didn't see the Camacho Triple Maduro in this list.

11/18 is a knee knocker.

The only cigar to ever make me sick was an Edge Maduro Toro I had early on in my time. When I say early on, I mean it was probably the 10th cigar I ever smoked. Nowadays, I'll spend a Saturday up at Empire, eat a decently full meal before I leave, smoke 5-6 cigars on average, and not eat anything til I get back home. That said, I'll drink a couple Cheerwines to help combat the vitamin N. This past Saturday I was up there from noon til about 9:30, made my way through 7 smokes, didn't feel a thing.

Nub Cameroon kicked my rear.

1926 padron?

A cuban punch punch on a empty stomach is quite nasty.

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.

Thank you oh BOTL!

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.
