Do you drink scotch? If so, think of the worst blended swill imaginable, and then compare it to your favourite single malt. That's pretty much the difference between a cigarette and a good cigar. You don't even have to be a smoker to enjoy a good cigar ... I know a lot of people who don't smoke, but will burn the odd cigar. And then you can torch a cigar and sip on a glass of cognac will doing so ... that particular combination can come darn close to stimulating nirvana.
