1.  Your Best Cigar Buy of 2025? 

 

The box/bundle/sampler you purchased that has changed your cigar trajectory in the most positive of ways. 

 

2.  Your Best Non Cigar Buy of 2025? 

 

Big or small, the thing you bought in 2025 (non cigar related) that has put the biggest smile on your face.

1. Dress box of Punch DC, now I can stop chasing them
2. Proper Spring Break vacation to Mexico. Our daughter is now 2, so it was a lot of fun for us / IVF treatment for baby no 2 in a couple months

After consulting my 2025 cigar log (yeah, I know what a cigar nerd), how about I share The What, When and Who?
H Upmann Magnum 54, first enjoyed on Tuesday, 9 September. Purchased from that fine purveyor of fine smokes, Friends of Habano! Thank you friends!!

1. NCs. Been on a mission to find some favorites and so far Tatuaje and Roma Craft are vied for the top spot.

2. 10 day trip steelhead fishing. It was pretty epic. Landed more salmon than I could count, lots of steelies, beautiful scenery. Good cigars and food. It was a huge shot in the arm in what has been a tough year for my family.

1. All the Fabrica’s consistent quality across the board. I can go deep and get cubanesque flavors. Also allows me to build up my CC supply and let them age since I’m smoking them with a lot less frequency.

2. XL SUV to fit a family of 5 and large dog. The memories have been priceless.

1. Nudie and MoFoh sampler. In general, they all work for me. 

2. Red Tiger rangefinder. Best I’ve ever used. It didn’t help my swing, but I knew what distance I wasn’t hitting the ball this year 🤣

1) The Fabricas I've tried this year. I still can't believe I waited so long

2) Got my friends and I tickets to an AEW pro rasslin event and it was a hell of a show. Can't beat time with the crew!

1. HVC La Rosa 10th Anniversary and Davidoff Winston Churchill LE 2025….both made me start delving back into new world cigars.

2. Ninja Luxe Espresso Machine from Costco….I lit up like a little kid opening up gifts on Christmas, pretty sure I have wrinkles on my smile now from every time I use it.

1. FoH Sampler a few months back. Bought two, one each for a friend and I. We smoked the first on Tuesday. He doesn't have a box collection, was great to get something we can both enjoy. 

2. A car that some might suggest is a "midlife".

1. Bolivar Simones 50 cab. I purchased it from our aged portfolio. Hermosos No 4. Canada Regional 2007. Stunning then. Stunning now.  

2. Alfa Romeo Quadrifoglio Stelvio. Straight into race mode each time. What a 510 HP racket, what a smile
