I have a feeling that it's customary to smoke a rather primo stick for the occassion. That being said, I have an Undercrown that's been resting for a while, but I want to save it for when I leave Afghanistan. Leaning towards one of my two favorites...MOW Ruination or CAO Fathom 5

Probably a CoLa right :r
I'm not sure what I'll smoke (or if I'll even be able to). I may light up an Anejo Shark I picked up.

Nah, mine are resting. I think I'll have a nice alternative though.

Being a newbie, I havn't had a lot of cigars yet. I did smoke a Padron 4000. I loved it,a two hour smoke. I'm thinking I'd like that.

12-08-2011, 11:06 PM
A Viaje 50 / 50 Red, an Illusione of some sort, or a Tatuaje Black. Hell, maybe I'll smoke all three and chase it with a Casa Magna Dominus.

Yes many people have tried them, they are a great priced stick for the quality. One of the few that are worth the money IMO. Great stick, you will love it!

I think I still have a '10 Holiday Blend. Might torch that one. Might dig out an Opus from last year, too.
As of now the plan on Christmas Day is to smoke a turkey. Not sure if that's gonna happen since it'll require hauling my grill over to the in-laws'. But it's either that or clean the turkey frier, and I'm not really keen on doing that either.

Not really sure, and kinda depends on the weather, but maybe a Padron 85th Maduro.

It was in the pass from Dunkel, I think you were in on that one as well. Been looking for a good reason to fire it up!
SteelCityBoy
12-20-2011, 05:14 PM
Getting closer and closer to the big day and in addition to my Viaje Holiday Blend (thanks to Dom) I will most certainly be burning my LP9 with a couple years on it. May even spark the Opus X I got from Shilala that also has had a little bit of time to rest...
I know one thing it is going to be a great weekend of smoking great sticks!
I don't usually smoke on Christmas, too much running around and such... You never know, but I have no plans to smoke anything at this point....
I will have a great cigar on Friday(maybe 2) and probably something special Christmas Eve as well....
