It's a Special Occasion

Giant & 49er Fan · 10-01-2009, 10:49 AM

You just got a big promotion at work...
When the wife tells you your first is on the way...

...You reach in the humidor and pull out that special smoke. Maybe you don't have it yet but know that the day Johnny graduates from college you have that particular cigar in mind. What is your go to? What cigar stands above the rest to be saved for that Special Occasion. Not a cigar for any NORMAL day ending in "Y".

Share your Special Occasion cigar choice. Or, share one that has already been enjoyed for the reason of celebration or success. It's a Special Occasion! What cigar will you smoke?

I promised myself to light the Tat RC233 that I have had in my humi for quite some time as soon as I reach the weight (160 kilo) that my doctor said that I should reach before he would preform the gastric bypass surgery. And I bet ya, it will be before the end of october. Then I will think of the cigar I will smoke once I get to the 150 kilo target.

I have so many singles that it's hard to chose but it's great to have a collection to chose from!

I have a Padron 80th set aside for such a special occasion, like my wife and i buying our first house together. we are just now moved in with our 1 year old, so i have decided that the 80th will be the first smoke i have at the new house, trying to weasel into having a housewarming herf, but the wifey isn't as open to it as i am, ecspecially with baby, but i have a big garage, and a heater to sit around.

If Amy tells me our first is on the way I'm reaching into the toolbox instead of the humidor and hitting myself hard in the goobers with a mallet.

Any other special occasion? Padron 45th or 64 Anny, or any stick I've deemed to be 'rare' or 'special'. This usually involves sticks given to me by people that are either CC or one that I only have one of.

Waking up is a special occasion for me

I relish everything in my humidor,not that they are that special,I just love my cigars.

But to specifically answer your query,I would probably grab as big a cigar as I have on hand.

Ya know Dave, I agree with you 110%!!

I don't really save any cigars for special occasions, just pick out whatever sounds good.

Great outlook from a great BOTL, but I can't agree I have a few cigars pit away for certain special occasions. I have 2 05 sig6s waiting for my brother and me for his bachelor party next summer

I have a Monte Especiale that was gifted to me a many Herfs back.
I'm saving it for that special day/moment/event.

But I agree 100% with Dave just waking up is worth any stick in my Humi

That Monte is going to Burn Burn Burn

DBall · 10-01-2009, 02:54 PM

Davidoff 3000's. I have a couple Mojitos and other less amazing stuff in my "special" humidor (not much, mind you... it's not overflowing by any stretch), but if it's truly a special occasion, I'm going for a Davi 3k.

(I'd better only ever have 2 special occasions, though...)

Allow me, sir - I owe you one. But I'll take the ballpeen instead.

As for my special cigar, I need not worry - nothing good ever happens.
