    Cigars and a cold

    Does anyone have a go to cigar after a cold to test the waters. You know see if the pallete is back to normal. I tend to go with an Ave Maria, Or a Black Ops. Smoked them both plenty so I know when they are off and they are affordable

    Can’t remember my last sick day, since I eat Manuka Honey every day. Just a tablespoon, aside from bolstering your immune system it wipes out all intestinal issues like gerd or heart burn and tastes delicious too!

    I love me some honey. Maybe I will have to try some of that.

    Sounds like you have a great plan in place. I usually grab something inexpensive, but not necessarily very familiar. Another tactic is to go for something with a kick to get past the cold barrier.

    I've told a couple of people you preach about that honey and they have tried the cough drops when they were already sick and loved them, one is now using the honey as a prevent so thanks for the info


    As to the smoke after a cold - I usually smoke right thru but cheaper smokes until the crud is gone
    No cigar until you get a par - birdie if it's a scramble !

    Perhaps a Gurkha or two for such occasions.

    That's not low enough - Gurkha is a premium cigar according to their ads. I always keep some seconds, fumas, overruns on hand for balance in the force....
