I broke down after 4 weeks and smoked a cigarete while on vacation. It rasted really bad! Not at all how they used to tast. The funny thing is I still smokedbthe whole thingbeven though I thought it tasted like an ash tray. Vapping is much better tasting and I do not think I will smoke another. Now a good cigar still tasts like a goog cigar, maybe better now. I only smoke them on rare occasions.
