I smoked red chesterfield and pal mal for 13 years and i'm still amazed at how easily i could quit with e-cig i started 4 july and haven't tasted an analog since. 
Started with Marlboro Reds then: Marlboro lights, Marlboro Menthol lights, Salem, Newports, Kools, and finally Marlboro Menthols during my 20 yrs of smoking cigs.
Also, smoked a LOT of Black & Milds during that time too.

I smoked mostly Old Gold,Camel filters and reds. Usually 2 packs a day. Ive been vapeing for 4 years, the first year I vaped I cut back to half a pack a day and the last three years I smoke two or three analogs a month to remind me how crappy they taste! I got in on the Prodigy in 2009 and i accredit five volt vaping and lr atties to quench my desire to go back to analogs due to the throat hit and rapid nicotine delivery. When I started vapeing I never intended to quit, just never smoke analogs again.
I started smoking Marlboro Reds about 15 years ago. I switched to Lights some time in there, and started smoking Ultra Lights after I joined the Army about 4 years ago. I figured it would help with PT tests and such. I just ended up smoking a pack a day instead of 10 or 15... lol Any way, I started vaping about three weeks ago, and have only had the urge for an analog maybe3 or 4 times. I bought a 10ml bottle of 24mg licorice just for those urges that I knew would happen. I keep an extra cartomizer full of the stuff just in case.
I was a pack and a half to 2 pack smoker of Mild Seven originals. Once in a while I would smoke shiesha and cigars. Haven't had a cigar since I quit, actually. I wonder what that would taste like now?
Marlboro Lights, then Marlboro, then Camel, and finally Winston. The Winston flavor e-liquid does NOT taste like a Winston; Winston's wet dog's ... maybe but not the cigarette.
Marlboro reds for me also. I smoked them nasty things for 15 years plus... Im glad i vape now!
I think this is a great thread, because it encourages people to look up their nic levels and realize that not all analogs are created equal...
Personally - I stopped smoking American Spirit USA Grown Hand Rolled Filterless...
I didn't know it at the time - but that particular rollie has just about the most Nicotine you can get in an analog...
At nearly 3mg of nicotine per stick - and 20 a day - I was rocking a steady 60mg of nicotine daily!
Nearly double what a Marlbolo pack a day smoker would have been getting -
The thing most people don't know about American Spirits is this: Since they don't use additives, they instead use 'Freebase Nicotine Saturation' to make their smokes more addictive...
They literally coat the tobacco itself in nicotine juice to up the nicotine levels!
So for those of us who gave up our beloved "All Natural Tobacco" many of us are faced with radically higher nicotine dependencies, along with nearly double the amount of tar in our chests!

i started out on Marlboro Reds then switched to Camel blues .... then camel turkish royal ... then camel infused then back to the turkish royals ... finally i settled in the L&M and i quit off of those ... all this in about 5 years time
I was never particularly brand loyal. I just tended to buy whatever was cheapest. Toward the end I was smoking either Canadian Classic (budget brand) or cheap bagged smokes off the Indian reserve. I hated the Indian smokes though because they were all harsh and were never consistent. But they were dirt cheap. Which is probably fitting because that's what they tasted like.
For longest time I smoked Virginia Slims 120's. But my last cigarette sitting on my stoop waiting for my mailman who delivered my pv, was a Marlboro Light 100 or whatever they called it in the end, I know they quit printing the light part on the box. Until they banned them, I smoked one Djarum clove cigarette a day after dinner, I keep one carto of clove juice for that purpose now. I don't miss anything!
I am still smoking bagged tobacco from the Indian reserves. Never could handle their rolled ones as there is something about the papers they roll with. Using cigarrette tubes i buy from the corner store i find the taste much better. Still for several reasons i am looking to get off of them and go completely with e-cigs.
Holy crap, dude! No wonder I recall trying out a pack and they would consistently give me a SERIOUS headache!
