in my opinion, cigars are not somthing I would want to get as a gift, cigars come and go, but a really nice humidor and cigar accessories leave a much bigger impression. I would be happy to get tickets to some kind of cigar event, cigar/dinner party would be really fun as long as my gal even feigned interest for that night. a humidor + accessories would be pretty sweet too, if he doesnt have a proper humidor already, then a humidor full of cigars wouldnt be too good, cause he will still have a bunch of cigars with no where to put them. I got to tell you, thats awsome that you are supporting him in this hobby, most women for whatever reason dont support cigar smoking and wont have anything to do with it, let alone buy the parphenalia to go with it.

I think cigars are a little too subjective for a gift unless you know exactly what he likes. I know here on Ccom they have gift certificates which might be a good idea. I also think the Cigar of the Month club would be a great idea. If he doesn't have a nice cutter then thats always an excellent gift as well.

Hello!

I am looking into getting my boy friend something high quality and nice for christmas.

He's always talked about how much he loves cigars, and he jabbers away names and brands here and there but I never really payed much attention...

I was thinking about getting him a very nice Humidor (around 50 - 100 cigars, under $200) and some high quality cigars that he might enjoy.

The problem is..... I have no knowledge of this whatsoever.

I am going to snoop around to see if he will mention any names in a conversation again... But in the mean time, would any of you kindly give me advice on what kind of Humidors are popular, and what are nice, what are to avoid... And maybe even some cigar brands that he might find delightful.

Please tell me; What would be the ultimate gift for a cigar lover?

 

Thanks,

Sneak around his collection and let me know what he has in there. We can start from there, the humidor is not a problem at all. You can email me at: ----> jjackson@cigar.com I will PM you as well. Thanks for coming to us! Jeff

I agree with everyone else. Give ccom a call and I'm sure they can set you up.

Go with a nice humidor that comes with a sampler set. You can usually pick them up together and sometimes they come with extra accessories like a cutter and lighter. Jeff at cigar.com can lead you the right way on that and take care of you. The customer service here is above and beyond!

This is Deffinately the guy to talk with about this!

Jeff hooks me up ALL the time. I know that if I were to get a gift I would love a nice 300 count humidor, nothing crazy expensive. There are some nice ones out there for less than $200.

I am going to tell my father I want a Xikar Xi2 cutter and a Xikar lighter for my birthday next month. If you talk to Jeff that is something he can hook you up with too.

I would also like to say that I agree with the Cigar of the Month club. It's a great way to try new cigars each month.

Good luck with the search, stop back in and let us know what you decide to get him!

Definitely call the customer service here and ask them about getting a humi and some cigars, they very well may give you a nice deal or give you a great recommendation.

And if you look around on the internet you can really find some good humidor deals... I got mine for 70ish and it is a 120 and is an excellent humidor and is beautiful IMO.

Last Valentines day my wife got me a 100+ count humidor and 50 cigar sampler. I was a happy man! You can guess on the types of cigars he likes but I dont think its a bad idea getting a variety of popular brands. Thats what I got with mine and I was really able to find out what I liked more then others. BTW its great you support this hobby of his, trust me he really does appreciate it!!!

If you are unsure about the cigars, you could always just get the humidor and then put a cigar.com gift certificate inside it. That way there is no bother with seasoning the humidor or anything like that. He can do it while he waits for his cigar order to get there.

As someone that would love his girlfriend to get him something cigar related (and probably will never happen)... ill chime in :) Good humidors really are cheap in the grand scope of things. In the price range you are looking, you can find him something really nice, for a great price. I would then also call CCom and talk to them. A nice sampler, something different that he probably has not had yet (Best of Show maybe, its brand new cigars), or depending on price range, a few months of the cigar of the month club or something like that.

I agree with that, maybe add a cutter, lighter or punch; or a combo lighter/punch.
