We used to do this every holiday on here but got away from it. What is everyone's holiday cigar of choice?

For me it is looking like rain so not sure but I have a nice Cabernet for the occasion I brought back from AZ so I am thinking a Maduro of some sort.

Anejo 46
GOF series B
Tat Noella Reserva (in case it needs to be a shorter smoke cause of weather)
Or maybe PAM 64

This is subject to change for when I pack my herfador and grab a bunch of other cigars for the day.

Hard to do a Thanksgiving cigar. It means going out away from the family for an hour or so. Now next week when I am TDY, I will be smoking a nice amount of cigars.

Hopefully others get to enjoy a nice one.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving is also considered National Cigar Day. I am thinking something on the full bodied side; perhaps a Bolivar or a H. Upmann No. 2 or...

Cohiba Esplendido of suspicious origin. If it isn't good... probably a Boli CG.

Diesel Unholy Cocktail. Diesel Shorty or Diesel Robusto are acceptable substitutes, but the UC is traditional for me.

Thinking about one, but several years ago I went with a Gurk Centurian, so maybe it will be something equally unimpressive.

Family functions... I usually just stuff a herfadore with random PCs and other smaller smokes so anyone that wants one can have one.

Might sneak in a higher end, after dinner cigar for my self though... Have to dig, don't know what's going in it yet.

Weather looks like it will be an issue today.
Probably go with a Kristoff Ligero Maduro Petite Rob with some age on it.
Nice full bodied smoke with good flavor, and small enough for me to sneak off to the deck for a bit to smoke it.

I'm thinking a PAM 64 also,had one earlier in the week and it was so darn good! It's one of the few cigars that you can nub it without getting too hot or losing flavor.

Going to fire up a Shark from '13 soon.

After eats later, I'm thinking a LG SBVI or an Opus Perf. #4. Will be a coin toss...

We eat at my dads, he has a smoking area but I'd never hear the end of it......so my smoking will be done before (if time permits) and after.

Getting cold and wet here, high of 48° and rain so probably not a double Corona or churchill......

Dinner too late, got home and it was dark and too cold (34F). Had a pipe with a new (to me) Lane tobacco.

Smoked a Casa Magna Oscuro #4 after I put the turkey in the oven, since I didn't have a lot of time and wanted something short but strong and flavorful before I had to get back in the kitchen.

Then, after dinner, I enjoyed a 601 La Bomba from 2013. Haven't had one in a couple of years, and it was a fave a few years ago. I was smoking with a couple of newbs who wanted something sweet and mild, so I brought out my candy box of infused cigars and my 50 ct desk-top, which contains a lot of 3 year and older cigars. They chose a Natural Root from the candy box.

And, not so easy to find. Glad my friend found a box to split.
