It's a boy! And another boy!

Razorhog · 01-30-2010, 03:00 PM

I haven't been active on the cigar forums for a while; I was a regular on Club Stogie. Life got in the way for a while, and is likely to in the future as I'm having twin boys!!!

I was wanting advice on handing out cigars after they are born. I've got an internal debate going on about this - buy a good box for me and give away some of my cheaper sticks? Buy a good box and give them away? Are there any decent "It's a boy!" cigars?

I lean towards giving away cheaper stogies because most of my friends will just put them in the freezer next to the black n' milds or white owls

A. Fuente Curlyheads are a good, inexpensive smoke that won't break the bank, nor the casual smokers' palates.

Congrats on the impending Blessed Event!

I have never tried them but they're cheap and I have yet to smoke a bad AF.

Razorhog · 01-30-2010, 03:41 PM

Awesome, thanks! The Fuentes Brevas look like a good choice. 5 Vegas gold nuggets, or maybe Punch London Club Naturals were some others I was thinking about.

0002S · 01-30-2010, 03:41 PM

Congrats, we need to BOMB you with diapers.

Smokin Gator · 01-30-2010, 03:43 PM

The AFs aren't bad at all and a dang good price. If you want to spend a little more they also make an 8-5-8 "It's a Boy" as well. You can find them at Tampa Sweethearts among others.

Congraduations bro!

NCRadioMan · 01-30-2010, 03:45 PM

Cuesta Rey (made by Fuente) also has the It's a _____ cigars for $21-25 a box. They are a little smaller than the Brevas but taste basically the same to me.

Congrats on the new additions.

Here's something I did for my friends who appreciate good cigars.
I took and made Avery labels for them which included
Full Name
Date of birth
Length & Weight

I attached these to the cellophane of each cigar.

Then, I put two of them away - to be properly stored until their 18th birthday where they will have their first cigar with me. The same cigars that were enjoyed to celebrate their birth.

I have shown both my boys those cigars, and they are excited.

Something I did later on then, was to find ISOM cigars that were born the same month & year they were. Have two of those each sitting and waiting for their 18th as well.

God's blessings upon you and especially your wife as the day approaches.

Peace of the Lord be with you.
