Default The best celebration cigar

Looking for a real "celebratory cigar" in its truest sense. No everyday smokes.

For me it would be whatever I felt the most like smoking at the time. If I were handing them out it might be something mild to medium that was easy for others to smoke. Maybe a box of AF Hemingway Signatures.

the one that you enjoy smoking. I could tell you to grab an opus but if you don't like that stick then you won't have a good celebration

I celebrate every time I get the chance to sit down and smoke a cigar. If it sucks I toss it. I know many times I have saved special cigars for a special moment and more than a few of those times I was underwhelmed by the smoke. Of course there was the RA 898 at Shack during the sunset, that WAS the right cigar for the right moment. I have also had many cigars turn an ordinary moment into a magical moment because they were so good.

But the Gorilla Finger is a celebratory cigar. It's like having a big party celebration in your mouth... where everyone threw up.

Everyday I open my eyes is a cause for celebration. So whatever I pick to smoke is a celebratory smoke.

If your looking to pick up a single NC. How about a Padron 40th?

first thing that came to mind was the blueberry pie eating contest in stand by me.

oh and completely agree with others that something we like you may not. but for me if i could get my hands on more h. upmann mag 46s those would be my celebratory smoke until i find something better. for NCs I'd go with a tenderloin.

What kind of celebration? Is it for show?
A Monticristo White Churchill would smoke nice and put on a good show. Great big cigar, easy to smoke.

My celebratory cigar is my first love, the Padron 1964 Exclusivo Maduro.

Never disappoints, I still say it's like smoking a Snicker's bar.

I think to me something obvious is missing, what is the celebratory occasion? The quality and price on a celebratory smoke would be determined on that. Also who's "everyday smokes" are we talking here. Some people here smoke some damn nice cigars daily.

I am anxious to see what everyone says. I am getting engaged this summer and then married next summer and I for sure wanted to take some cigars on the honeymoon and even smoke one the wedding night. For me right now the nicest cigar I own is a Anejo that was sent to me in the newbie trade by Jason. I was going to save it for the wedding but now I am wondering what you guys will suggest.
