Your Christmas Day cigar

[addictedtooranges]

WOW. Those 898s look great

[4wheelvfr]

I'll be smoking one of my last Punch RS12's, a Monte Especial No.2, and an Opus Belicoso.  Should be a pretty good mix.

Depending on the weather and how much time I can get either a RyJ Churchill or a Trinidad Vigia!

The weather in London looks set fair for a mid-afternoon bail out into the garden at the in-laws when the older ones are snoozing and the incessant noise of the others gets too much. HdM Epicure Especial is the current front runner, with Monte PE and RACA going into the travel humi as second choices.

Thunder & Lightening '75 - '15

I think it’s going to be a Club Allones or Connie A for the Christmas Day smoke. I’m going to be in Bangkok so weather shouldn’t be an issue!

[Santiago]

If all goes according to plan, on Christmas Eve I’ll get my first smoke in while preparing the fire pit and things out back. Probably a cheap and cheerful stick.

After guests arrive, I’ll be savoring the first of the RyJ Ex 4 received from our host a few months ago with the men in my family. 

Next morning a Monte PE, 30 days ago received from our host, over a caffe corretto and maybe some hot tub relaxation before the day’s festivities. 

Hopefully have time for a smooth Monte 5 as a nitecap.

My CC lust was fueled by an Epi No. 2 a few years back, so it's a bit of a tradition to have one Christmas day!

A no brainer Hupman Sir Winston.

[Scotty]

Working all day Christmas Day and Boxing Day, so will be fitting in anything I can lay my hands on the moment I am off duty.

I have planned to start with Partagas Lonsdales or SdC no. 3.

After that I will smoke several other cigars.

My prediction... hot and humid. 

Beats cold and dreary any day... Enjoy!

Very limited options for me right now, probably a Monte 2 and a Lusi during the day somewhere

I plan to rectify the limited option problem on the upcoming Jan trip to Havana

All depends on the weather.  First choice is an '06 HUSW @fabes sent that I've been saving for when I have the time to appreciate it.  Other choice is a Partagas Chicos (or 2).

'06 SW died for the solstice and was impossibly complex - showcased the breadier, muskier, slightly creamy side of Upmann for the first 2 thirds before blowing up into a coffee and cake explosion. Fantastic.

Ended up choosing an Ashton ESG perfecto for xxxmas - utterly fantastic stick that's easily as good as many CC. Too bad about the pricetag, though.

I went with a davidoff art edition 2016 (not a good choice) and then a Siglo ii in the evening (great choice).

One of my best friends came round and I had to smoke his surprise gift-a Bolivar Corona Gigantes.

Never had one of these before. It was classic Bolivar, but more refined and with a sweetness to it, a very memorable cigar.

Thanks Mike !
