De-Caff Cigars

How do they do De caff coffee beans?

Carbon Dioxide. Supercritical Carbon Dioxide.
Above a certain temperature/pressure, there is no discernible difference between liquid and gas. This weird state of carbon dioxide is a fantastic solvent and used to decaffeinate coffee.

I thought we had all agreed that it wasn't an addiction just a hobby and we arnt addicted then why do you need / want the nicotine?

Nicotine gives you a stimulant poisoning. Same to a caffeine, theobromine, or cocaine poisoning - not overdose.
Nausea, vomiting, headache, and general overall sickness.

Get rid of the nicotine, get rid of nicotine sickness.

Maybe there is an element of dancing with the devil? We all know smoking in any form is potentially addictive and harmful and maybe that's all part of the fun? Like riding bare back or playing Russian roulette?




Smoking is more habit than addiction.



The nicotine only stays in your body for a few hours, so if you are a casual smoker (1 a day or say 3 a week) like quite a lot of the other members on the forum then it should not be an issue.

I don't think we do need it, but if you now started to take it away it would mentaly feel like you are getting half measures.

Man in the Moon!

If they can do De-Caff coffee why cant they do De-Nicotined Cigars?

Just a thought.......

I suspect "they" can, but as senor lovegod noted, what would be the point?

A De-Nicotined cigar would be like a prostitute that doesn't put out......If that makes sense?

Good analogy..but according to Ray Jay, they exist.

Some more than others. Of course, a Salamones will lose nicotine much slower than a half corona for a variety of reasons.
But it's generally regarded that nicotine, tannic acids, polymers, and other large and/or volatile molecules in cigars degrade over time making an aged cigar a smoother cigar.

- age a cigar for more than 20 years and they will have little to no more nicotine in them.

- different materials
- nicotine isn't the bad thing. Nitrosamines are.

If you made a cigar out of another substance other than tobacco you could but tobacco belongs to the genus nicotina , hence where you get nicotine from the alkaloid in tobacco

Sorry, was just editing as you replied.

Yeah right that old story

It would probably taste like alcohol free beer compared to beer.

Don't get me started on that stuff!
