Any Blends Make you Sick?

[gamzultovah]

I caught COVID from a bowl of HH Pure Virginia a couple of months back (that’s my story and I’m sticking to it).
Still smoke HHPV everyday, now that I’m immune to it.

Got dizzy from smoking four flakes of Rustica at once but never sick.

Warped - Midsommar. Had nothing to do with nicotine, I think I'll chalk it up to body chemistry. So, there I was, one morning cruising at about 75-80 mph on my way to work while puffing away on some Midsommar (1st bowl) when halfway through the bowl I find myself dry heaving, gagging (with tears in my eyes). and ultimately puking into a car trash bag while steering and trying to stay on the road. I haven't touched it since...it's been sitting in the back of a dark cabinet beckoning me. I remember opening it and burying my nose in the tin and thinking that it kind of smelled like Sun Bear Tupelo (sweet), but the smell didn't translate to taste. Shivers

1792 Flake I thought I was going to puke. Also brown twist made feel like the room was spinning the first time I smoked it. To much nicotine and I get sick.

Two of my favorite blends. But I have had 1792 sneak up on me while drinking Guinness and cause me to take a 15 min. nap

What's funny, is that my favorite blend today Pegasus, used to get me queasy after two bowls. Hated it for the first year now I can't get enough of it

I learned the hard way, filling a larger pipe with G&H Dark Birdseye and not heeding the telltale signs. That blend now only goes into small pipes.

Sometimes I feel Brown Irish X but never too sick. Just a warning to slow down before I over do it. Tasty rope tho

5 Brothers nic hit used to get me nauseated but I haven't tried it in a while.

Precisely my answer too.

Mixture 79 tastes like soap to me

First bowl of 1792 I had, ten minutes later my legs were sweating like night sweats and I thought I was gonna fall over.
Now it’s one of my favorite blends.

Pipe blends? Sick? No. There are many many many that I dislike. But never sick.

Haunted Bookshop. I don't like most of the C&D I've had, so that may play into it. I like Burley and I like Perique and don't mind a heavy hand of either. I love Red Virginias, but not from C&D (way too vegetal and "raggy" tasting). Maybe it's the VA, but I bought a tin, try it from time to time, and am planning on dumping the remainder into the next bon fire we have.

Not yet. But, haven't tried Mac Baren Rustica.
Bold Kentucky on empty stomach is no problem, just a slight buzz.

The story of my first bowl was that I watched It Happened One Night and got interested in the pipe, so I ordered a no-name pipe from Amazon. I bought some Captain Black in a pouch from Walgreens (who knows how old that stuff might have been) and went to the back porch over lunch.

A short while after having a bowl of it, maybe within an hour, I felt sick. I ended up being down for a couple of days with who-knows-what. It could have just been coincidence of course, but I threw the stuff out with the pipe and I haven't touched Captain Black since. Never had a problem with a decent pipe and other tobaccos though.

That’s how they get ya.

Over the years I know I’ve been nic’d out more than once but I don’t recall which blends did it. Most recently I felt a little light headed when I arrived at work after smoking C&D Burley Flake #1 on an empty stomach. Had some food and was right as rain in about 15 mins.

I’ve never been made to feel sick or uncomfortable in any way simply from pipe tobacco flavor, only from that dastardly nicotine molecule.

Precisely my answer too.

I tried it when I first started pipe smoking 3 years ago and boy was I hit hard lol.
