Winstons, like most American cigarettes (not to mention beer), taste like excrement. Unless you're habituated, they are so harsh and laden with chemical additives even one puff can bring on nausea. But they're NOTHING compared to Spanish cigarettes! Try one of those, if you've got the nerve!

Kinda like swallowing a flaming sword.   No wonder the 'throat-clearing sound' is so vital in the Spanish language. Seems like every other word or so has it's little hork!
