I don't smoke cigarettes either so weed was a little bit rough the first time I did it too but I first did it with a carbed glass pipe so that was kinda harsh. What you should do it just by 5 or 6 joints and smoke them like 1 or 2 a day over the next week/week and a half and you'll get used to the taste and feel. I didn't like it at first either but now I love it.
