If you had to choose a gift to send to someone who loves cigars, what would it be?
Meaning a box of cigars, special cigars, special cigar accessories or something like that, that is available in the U.S.

What would you want to give to someone as a gift, if you had the money to spend on it?

    If I knew their tastes, I would probably get them a sampler by the same blender or similar sticks(ie: AJ, DPG) and/or a cool cutter/lighter combo. To me a box is somewhat risky unless you know their preferences, then I would go for it. Custom humidors are always cool, all depends how much you want to spend and what you know about the recipient.

    Well, if money wasn't an issue, then what?
    Isn't there some box of cigars everyone would want?

    Here would be my choices with categories
    Lighter/Cutter: Xicar V-Cutter and any Xicar lighter(can't beat their warranty)
    Humidor: Desktop(40ct, 75ct, or 130ct) or Travel(4 or 8ct) Humidor from Gryphon Humidors, either their (love my Lancelot-75ct)
    Cigars: AF Anejo Sharks, My Father LB Petit Robustos, Opus X ****, My Father 2010LE, AF Don Carlos, so many cool cigars it's hard to think of some but those are some of my top NC favorites
    Other Accessories: Custom Cedar Spills(CCS), humidifier for their humidor(beads or active-Oasis), custom cigar trays for their humidor

    Personalizing a gift is always cool, always means more when there is a personal touch IMO.

    I would send something pretty limited .... Maybe a box of Montecristo NY, or Alec Bradley NY, or La Aurora Boradway .... Or maybe some of each. They are all tasty.

    Hey Rip,
    What do you think of the Davidoff Year of the Snake?

    Very good cigar but not extremely complex. To be honest not worth for $30 a piece. however, please allow me a little time to smoke the second one and put together a full review. That smoke was my only smoke within last two weeks. I am still not smoking cigars. That day I forced myself to smoke that cigar. In a nutshell, I prefer to reserve my final comment on this.
