I've smoked the Chisel and the V before, haven't had a chance to try the others.

The two times I've smoked the Chisel, I didn't find it to be that strong.

I found the Triple Maddie delicious (nubbed it, in fact), but not overly strong. I was just curious about the others on the list. Like Peter said, maybe I should have used a different title than the one from the article...

The San Christobal was a great cigar!

Keep in mind that the article is from 2/08. The Antano and T110 both came out in 09, right?

I don't know about the T110 but the JdN Antano has been out for a few years at least. I would guess 2006 or earlier.

Ah, ok. Seems like there's been a lot of buzz just in the last few months, so I assumed it was a recent release.

The T110 and JDN Antonio should really top that list... Also, I haven't had one yet but from what I've heard maybe the RyJ Cazedores? If we're talking about strong sticks that is

The last time I got sick was caused by smoking a EO 601 Blue Label Maduro on an empty stomach. The only other ones on the list that I have smoked are the Oliva Serie V and San Cristobal. I wouldn't classify either one of these as "stong" cigars.

I can't think of a cigar that knocked me on my ass before other than the edge maduro, but that was my very first cigar that I've ever had and this was years ago. The Camacho TM was just full of flavors imo, the LFD Cheroot was full bodied but did not do it for me. Hmmm gotta think about this one.

That's kinda how I feel about the CAO Italia. Loved the Brazilia, but the Italia just seemed strong for the sake of being strong.

I'm sure you mean the Antano as JdN's have been around since the late 60's.

Another one that knocks me on my a$$ every time I torch it is the Essencia. For whatever reason, this stick is my kryptonite.

I can send you some macanudos if essencias are too strong for you.

I don't know what it is about the Essencia...I normally smoke strong spicy sticks with no issues whatsoever. Camacho Triple Maduros, LFD Maduro Chisels...my flavor profile has been the stronger, the better. But that Essencia makes my eyes water and stomach flip every time I smoke it. Don't get me wrong, they are tasty as hell...but damn...

I'm with you on this. Every time I smoke one, I think "I'm only gonna smoke it to the band." And then I end up nubbing the damn thing and having a hard time standing up. Not sure why, but they hit me harder than any of those on the list, except the Chisel.
