A Great Cigar: RX For Stress Relief
There are few things that are more effective or immediate in banishing stress than a great cigar. That’s my professional opinion and you can quote me on that. As a former psychotherapist turned life and business coach, I know something about helping others deal with their stress.
Cigars are the great equalizer when chaos is roaring right at you. Stress seems to evaporate with the first puff and as the smoke rises and swirls around me. Problems fade away and suddenly I’m at peace with myself and the world.
I’ve read that right before the ban on Cuban cigars entering the United States, President Kennedy sent his aid out to buy up all the Cubans he could find in D.C. I’m pretty sure Kennedy knew something about stress and how to handle it! No doubt that his favorite cigars helped kept him clear headed during the missile crisis.
The next time you’re wanting some instant relaxation and comfort, here are a few cigars I’ve recently enjoyed. I happily prescribe to you for your stress relief.
Here a couple of cigars that will do the trick every time…
Warning: If you’re wanting the kind of description that says “hints of chocolate in the first few puffs, then I was pleasantly surprised by an unmistakable coffee flavor…” you won’t get that from me. Sorry, but I’m just not that complicated.
I was out on my deck recently and fired up a Camacho. Every Camacho I’ve had was exceptional, as was this one. Great draw, even, consistent burn and a robust high medium to strong smoke.
The next day, I smoked a Cain Habano cigar (from Nub cigars) for the first time. I think it was a 6 X 52 and there was no disappointment in this fine cigar. This is a full bodied cigar and you can tell from the first few minutes that it will probably kick your butt if you smoke it on an empty stomach.
The draw was impeccable all the way through, the wrapper was smooth and the burn was even throughout. This is a cigar you will want to enjoy soon if you love robust, full-bodied cigars.
Until next time, from one cigar lover to another…
I totally agree Alan that a cigar is the perfect "Stress Buster". I've often called that time we get to spend with a cigar an "Island of Time". Happy Smoking Alan! We look forward to hearing more of your comments. On life and on cigars!
New!
The Rocky Patel 1961 cigars were just released and are getting good reviews from our customers. These creamy, smooth drawing, medium/full bodied cigars are named 1961 to celebrate the year of Rocky's birth. Nice peppery notes give the Patel 1961 cigars rich and spicy tones yet remain smooth and elegant. These are extremely limited in production.
